    Worthless fight, still I wouldn't TOTALLY count out Tarver in this one.
    The rematch isn't HBO's making, it was a clause in their contract for the first fight and Tarver chose to make use of it. It was the logic thing for him to do, but it's bad for the division.

    I know about Tarver's situation going into the last fight. I hear this time he has rectified those problems and I believe he will put on a performance that is 100% better than the last fight and KO Dawson.

    IMHO one of his major problems was that he was 39. If you mean he "rectified" it because he got 40 I am afraid you are too optimistic ;-)

    It's a good fight. This is Tarver's only chance and there is no better way other than having a rematch with the guy that beat him, not to forget Tarver's record in rematches.

    It's good to see they gave him another chance as he deserves it, it's not on PPV either so there's nothing to complain about.
