Whoa... calm down Charlie doesn't mean it as an insult. It's just how he posts. And you are wrong... Tarver may not have the best resume but he most definitely deserves to be on there. When he fought RJJ the first 2 times he was considered top 3 in terms of p4p. He followed that up by fighting Johnson who had just KO'd RJJ. You are right that Johnson isn't flashy but check out his record and you will see he has got some bad decisions and fought really tough opposition. Top that off with Hopkins who was still high on the p4p list and I don't see your logic.
I'll tell you what...nothing about Jermain Taylor has made me a fan. He's a really nice guy, I can see that, but based on what I see in the ring, nothing has drawn me towards liking him. If anything, though, I am a heck of a lot closer to it after he picked Winky Wright as his first opponent since becoming middleweight champion. That was a real ballsy move- Winky is no push over, and after two consecutive fights with Bernard Hopkins who could have blamed him if he took a break?
Though he might now...despite saying he wants to fight the best..his promoters are looking into matching him up against Sergio Mora...and honestly I think that's a joke. Maybe just me...but I see Taylor walking right through him.

Im a yellow belt in karate and your telling me whoa...whoa. Just conversing here no need to really fire fire me up and make me go put on my gee.
Im wrong?
Look, Tarver fought Glenn johnsonson and an absolutely mother****ing shot Roy Jones in three consecutive fights...he has had a nice run against good comp but comparted to the rest of the list he finishes last.
