    With buddy in his corner, tarvers instructions will be " jab to the chest baby" rinse repeat for every round.

    McGirt was one of my favourites as a kid. There's only so many times you can hear "Jab to the chest, baby" though.

    Thanks JIM, if he is 200LB i think he can defeat Danny. Also agree with you about the sparring, very hard to gauge from that footage because he turns it on at will. I seen glimpses of the younger Tarver in there and suspected he was holding alot of it back at times. Will be a great fight if all goes to plan. When do we get to see the guy in the cream jumper sparring Tarver? :lol::good

    fckn i knew it, if he is not 200LB then this bullsht is Dannyweight, some say it wont make a lick of diffrence but i dissagree. Tarver does not preform well when he is forced to strip weight, a classic example of this is the Hopkins fight, he was weight drained and it cost him the fight.

    If this is CW then Tarver will come in at 200LB, perhaps a little under but to be 195LB then its BJ flores/Dannyweight crap once again.

    I had a good chat with tarver and his people about the weight and no stipulations have been put on him he has fought at 175lbs so comming in a couple of lbs under is totally up to him and shows he is in great shape thats all

    Jim, Tarver hasnt been 175LB for about 2 yrs now. His last fight was in 2010 at 221LB.

    I've also talked to some people in the Tarver camp and from what I understand there is no catchweight ... Tarver looked in great shape today and will probably come in between 196-198. I'm no Green man at all but fairs fair I'm pretty sure there is no weight stipulations.
