    At the very least a very interesting match-up IMO.

    i bet shane camerons having a good old whinge! if he beats tarver in a convincing fashion i expect he'll get the confidence to have a go at wlodziack or maybe huck, apparently huck wasnt that impressive in his most recent fight against the israeli fellow

    Huck is there for the taking. He's pretty bad at the best of times, a real neanderthal, but more cracks are starting to show if that was even possible. Anyone who goes to Germany has to KO him to get a draw though.

    Huck is useless, did you see his fight on sunday?
    He gets hit WAY too much, I really think Green would have a field day with him

    It does appear to be a by-passing by Green of Cameron, and make a future match-up with Cameron look unlikely.

    Just had a gander in the main forum and the general consensus is that this is a good fight and Tarver is more than capable of bringing the pain...

    dont think southpaw is a problem;
    - smashed beyer in fight 1.
    - under prepared in beyer 2 and fenech took it as an easy win due to beyer 1.
    - domintaed much larger guy drews.
    issue is strength, ability to hit and not be hit!!

    This will be a good fight for Green. Tarver may be past it but he hasn't had a career of wars thus he's still a fairly fresh 44 yr ol. He definately has the skills & power to test Green at cruiser. I look forward to this one.

    Tarver's 42, but your point is still valid. Should be a good scrap.

    I think Green will start a favourite with the bookies in this one.

    I loved the way BHop broke Tarver down. I think if Green jumps on him he'll do the same in the later rds.
