    if u want to see tarver getting treated like a tomato can then watch it otherwise there is no drama whatsoever. Chad was in total control every round and let tarver hit him in one round to show that tarver got nothing. However i wonder why chad didn't finish Tarver off. I guess he was being nice to tarver.

    WTF? Look, Tarver is near 40, and he was in great shape for Dawson... But age was a big factor........ Dawson is a spry 26 or 27 years old and full of **** and vinegar.... Tarver was in the fight, but a shade slower than his youthful foe........ Dawson's youth will prevail again..... Cheers...

    fight was boring as hell. One sided for Dawson. The fight is only worth watching for Tarvers hot ass wife and when Tarver gets knocked down it looks as if he was doing a cartwheel. other than that it sucked.

    Very boring fight. If you need to take a sleeping pill, watch the fight instead, it will put you to sleep.

    The 1st fight was certainly no barn-burner, but I was impressed that Tarver at his age, with his skills obviously not what they once were, was able to go the distance with Dawson. It seemed to me that all Tarver had was experience to get him by.

    What? Dude, he hit Tarver with everything and the kitchen sink. Flashed his hand speed and landed some pretty nice combinations at times. I think Tarver lasted twelve because he's durable, experienced, and because Dawson doesn't have devastating power or anything. I would be very surprised if the rematch didn't also go the distance.

    Tarver looked like he was sleepwalking in the ring.

    I'm only pissed because of the rematch clause in Tarver's contract...... I like Tony Tarver... I really do..... But, at age 40, he's almost done fighting..... My gripe is, I know Tarver will train hard and be prepared, but it won't be enough at age 40 and fighting a man who's in top shape at age 27 or so......... STILL! Tarver will gross a cool million dollars for this rematch on Cable TV..... That sure is a nice payday for a man looking at retirement...........
