    Tarver seems to be getting better with every fight.

    Ah, great thread, K! Hadn't noticed it before, thanks for the heads up.


    I agree 100%. For some reason, I prefer listening to Roy commentating, but Tarver is also great. I'll go with the 'tie' option. :good

    If you really look out for racism you will find no matter if it really is there or not

    They're both great, Tarver's better spoken and he's charismatic as well but Jones is much better with analysis and also has charisma. I like them for diff reasons.

    At least Tarver can articulate a point and be understood. They both shamelessly support the status qup in boxing, however. So personal preference aside, there is little difference.

    RJJ is overrated as a commentator... especially lately. Tarver is better in my opinion.

    +1 If it weren't for Jones bias he would be good.
