Tarver: He reminds me of Roy Jones except dominating better fighters....

Ward is turning into a big hype job. But I do understand them needing to generate stars.

 

Well, to be fair I do think the Miranda and Green fights were good wins. Ward did dominate quality fighters (may'be Green to a lesser extent), but still I agree very poor choice of words used by Tarver. Ward is on the right track, but still miles away from being on RJJ level.

 

Ward is in no way similar to Roy Jones. In fact, he's a carbon copy of Bernard ****ing Hopkins. I also can't stand when ring announcers glorify cheating or refer to cheaters (e.g. Ward, Hopkins) as being "crafty veterans" when throwing intentional low blows, rabbit punches, elbows and head butts, holding on the inside, etc.

I guess Margarito was a crafty veteran for stuffing bricks in his gloves, too?

 

Old school throw back to resto!
He's pulling a veteran move alright.

 

Miranda and Green aren't better fighters than Roy Jones dominated in his prime.

Kessler, on the other hand...

Again, we're talking about fighters Roy dominated. He did fight a couple of great fighters in his prime, but those weren't the ones he dominated (although some diehards will insist he did).

 

Based on what? What makes him not deserving of being the Super Six favorite?

 

Ward will only fight in his home town. Klitschkos are the best fighters in the world today. They would knock out all heavyweights today and they would knock out Ward easily, Void easily, Dawson easily, in fact, they will beat "all" fighters in "all" divisions. HBO does not like that. Klitschkos will beat all their fighters period.

 

You would actually vote to reinstate the color line if such a thing appeared on a ballot, wouldn't you?

 

I am not the one boycotting Klitschkos, you are support such a boycott. I am sick of your bias!

 

I objectively defend Wladimir against his droves of critics perhaps more than any other reasonable poster on this site.

Note that I said reasonable. :yep

 

As for Tarver's comment, it probably served two purposes. I think Ward impresses him and he wants to heap praise on him to promote his name - that statement coming from Jones' conqueror is pretty deep (even if it isn't heartfelt).

It was also probably just a subtle dig at his old rival.

They never exactly buried the hatchet, did they?

 

I know how badly the Klitschkos have been treated in America and by the American media. Years ago they even lied.

Vitali sold out at MSG, NY, USA during a snowstorm! HBO has proven my point.

 

You probably got a point.... But try reading your comment and looking at your avatar from time to time... You start to hear his voice narrating what you just said.. Eventually, you don't care if it's a valid point or not because it sounds annoying...

 

Damn man, remove the Klits balls from your mouth. This thread has NOTHING to do with heavyweights let alone the Klits. Its like you have a crush on these guys and cant think of anything but them. do you have dreams about sack swapping, or going to a Klit ballsack lick-a-ton.

Stay on task simpleton, this is about what Tarver said, which was nothing about the Klits.
