by Scottrf Wed 20 Jul 2011, 1:36 pm

On now.

Green down in the second.

Tarver controlling it with his left, Green struggling witht the southpaw stance.

Amazingly, Thomas Hearns once held the title that they are fighting for.

by Scottrf Wed 20 Jul 2011, 1:51 pm

And Thomas Hearns fought Ray Leonard on a Wednesday. It’s uncanny.

by Scottrf Wed 20 Jul 2011, 1:52 pm

Think Tarver dominated 6, Green getting back into it.

by **Union Cane** Wed 20 Jul 2011, 1:57 pm

Your scorecard at half-way Scott?

by Scottrf Wed 20 Jul 2011, 1:57 pm

Not watching it, I'm reading an rbr.

Tarver beat Green, Green beat RJJ.............

Black and white for me

Tarver has propelled himself into the top 60 ATG list whereas RJJ is still languishing around the 250 mark.......

And yes, Tunney would beat them both fighting as a tag team.

Harrison beat Williams

Williams beat Tyson

Tyson beat Holmes

Holmes beat Ali

Audley is better than Ali, black and white for me. Come on Coxy, you're better than that surely

by Scottrf Wed 20 Jul 2011, 2:47 pm

Not when it comes to RJJ.

by BoxingFan88 Wed 20 Jul 2011, 2:47 pm

I'll have to watch that when I get home. Very impressive from Tarver, he said he was going to stop him and did. Great win.

I miggggggght not be being overly serious

Still, it does prove Tarver is a far better shot fighter than RJJ. Which i'm content with.

by Scottrf Wed 20 Jul 2011, 2:50 pm

You were perfectly serious Wink

But yes, Jones is a terrible shot fighter.

The greatest ever prime fighter though, unbeatable.

by Imperial Ghosty Wed 20 Jul 2011, 3:02 pm

Most over rated fighter of all time, FACT

by eddyfightfan Wed 20 Jul 2011, 3:02 pm

when would you say RJJ should have quit?

by coxy0001 Wed 20 Jul 2011, 3:09 pm

I've had such a nice relaxing day i'm not going to ruin it by mentally imploding over RJJ

Not seen this fight yet but will watch it to see Green exposed by an old faded fighter. Mainly to hear the ridiculous, hysterical, nonsensical commentary from the Aussies.

When Green beat a completely shot RJJ the commentator announced emphatically that "When you beat a Legend, you become a legend!' and when David Tua smashed up overrated (in Oz) and overprotected Shane Cameron the commentator asks out loud: "Why didn't Tua do this against Lennox Lewis?" as though Cameron was in the same class as the Great Brit when anyone with a passing interest in the sport would know that there is no comparison.

by eddyfightfan Wed 20 Jul 2011, 3:21 pm

yeah sounds about right. dont know what hes trying to prove, he cant need money surely

by **Seanusarrilius** Wed 20 Jul 2011, 3:27 pm

Clearly RJJ junior is trying to break the 'how many times a guy can get KTFO and continue to command a commentator position on HBO' world record.

It is getting silly now, i only weigh 150 but i am seriously thinking of eating a few packs of burgers calling him out and reaching legendary status by dusting him inside 5 with a highlight reel KO and i am a weakling

Seriously tho, it is tragic.

Good call by his corner, Green was taking heavy punishment and looks like he was way on his way to getting KTFO!

by Super D Boon Wed 20 Jul 2011, 4:04 pm

Tarver could clean out the cruiserweight division with the crud that's there. Trouble is two of those clowns are Sauerland fighters. Sauerland fighters only want the easy fights. Tarver should shoot for that polish guy.

by **oxring** Wed 20 Jul 2011, 6:42 pm

Tarver won't beat Huck. Huck's corner could retire him and he'd win by DQ [if they fight in Germany]

by **Seanusarrilius** Wed 20 Jul 2011, 9:43 pm

I actually think Afolabi is the best cruiser put ther and now he seems to be putting training in he might clean out the division. his ko of Dunstan was boooootiful

by rapidringsroad Wed 20 Jul 2011, 10:58 pm

I watched the fight on Maori TV in New Zealand and only gave Danny Green one round, the seventh.I thought maybe Tarver was tiring but I think he was just taking a breather as he dominated the rest of the fight and stopped Green for the first time in his career.
