It's amazing. I used to dislike Antonio Tarver when he was thought to be at his best, but he's proven to be a really astute Boxing commentator. A really likable commentator.
I have always liked Antonio. Maybe because I am no fan of Roy. But he is indeed very good at commentating.
Never been a big fan of Tarver but always respect what he's done as a fighter...He grew on me once he became a commentator! Never seems to be bias IMO and give us a solid break down for the most part.
I won't lie was always a Roy fan and didn't like Tarver but he's got a gift for the gab and he's become a damn good commentator. Even still though feels like he killed superman but he's a professional that does his job and I enjoy his commentary.
He is my favorite commentator currently. Anybody remember the Cotto/Mayorga fight? Tarver: "It's hard to impress to Mike Tyson."
Its funny, guys like Tarver seem to put on an act when they´re fighting, probably in order to draw interest, but are very down to earth, open minded and articulate when asked to play a different role, like being a commentator. I enjoy Tarver´s thoughts and his style of speaking. Both RJJ and Briggs can be seen in the same light, but I think Tarver has just thrived in this new role. Would like to see him doing this for the long haul. What´s next though? PBF being mature, decent and honest as a commentator?
