    LOL...the Aussie commentators just tend to big up everybody, dont take em seriously.

    But great showing by Tarver...defintely HOF bound IMO. He's been fighting championship fights for a long while and showed his class.

    Wow Tarver looked as good as ever, I thought he was going to fade and Green was going to be fired up and overhaul him on points but he was in a different league, good to see him back, Tarver is one cool cat

    tarver fought the perfect fight, all credit to him, the hate on here for danny is unjustified he has done so much for aus boxing and he constantly gets bagged out. Tarvers left hand is spectacular and green couldnt deal with his speed or timing

    Yeah was a very impressive showing. Gotta love how Tarver just went all out at the end of the 9th. Guns blazing.

    the one time green moved forward and let his punches go, he looked like there was no doubt he would ko tarver. he only did it once though. very, very strange. tarver was in serious trouble but green did not press the issue more.

    Is this a TKO9 or a RTD9? When exactly was the fight stopped? I'm confused.

    After the 9th finished...he didn't come out for the 10th. So RTD9 I imagine.

    Alright, that's what I thought. Boxrec has it a TKO9.


    EDIT: Bah, ****s have stealth-edited it.

    Green was out on his feet at the end of round 9. Corner did not let him come out for round 10.

    I don't think Tarver was in that much trouble..despite what Michael was saying.

    He just was temporarily tired I think and tried to stifle Greeny's momentum with holding.

    From my shitty stream it looked like he was ducking or pulling away from a lot of Danny's shots..even though he had the body language of a guy in a bit of strife.
    Green has always been a bit of a front runner...once he has to come from behind I think he gets a bit clueless...because he is so rigid in his attacks.
    He got fired up for a little bit but the next round the fight fell back into the same pattern.

    Hyder I thought was giving Danny good advice in the corner..but Green kept on doing the opposite. Mostly because Tarver wouldn't let him do anything else.
