    Lol I forgot all about this one:

    I love it:
    Tarver KD's Harding
    Ref: Are you alright?
    Harding: Yeah
    ref: Are you sure:
    Harding: I'm from PHILADELPHIA!

    That's almost as badazz as the trail runner who recently killed a mountain lion that attacked him.

    Almost.

    Fight should have been stopped before that point for sure. Harding was a tough Philly fighter that went out on his shield. Respect to him and to Tarver--ref needed to protect that man.

    Couldn't stand, and still can't stand Milk Dud. I remember Harding giving RJJ a rough go.

    Another vote for Tarver's outrage over the ref not stopping the fight - that was righteous outrage. Good stuff.

    Tarver and Harding at that time would both be near the top of 175 if they were transported to today.

    A classic moment. Harding seperated the men from the boys back in the day.

    Good for him. And good for the ref for letting him go out on his shield. Fights should be allowed to go to their natural conclusion, not be prematurely halted.
