I feel the exact same way. I will always like Tarver, one of the best **** talkers around. Its a shame that he talked so much against Dawson, but faught so passive
Roy Jones fighting ability(peak) with Tarvers Gob! that would be a promoters dream!! Appolo Creed eat you heart out.
I wish I had a video of that Tarver-Hopkins press conference. I've heard that it was very entertaining.
Lets see Mayweather act like that to Cotto, Margarito or Williams and live to tell. But he only does that with handpicked opponents. You gotta put Hopkins in here too. Lennox Lewis. Both Klitschkos. Kostya Tszyu. Mayorga putting his hands down to Forrest. He was a beast back then. Duran. Tarver what he did to Roy was maybe the single greatest psyche out moment there ever was. "I got a question. Roy Jones do you have any excuses tonight?" Come on, ALi couldn't have come up with that.
Ali hands down....talked **** about Foreman while Foreman was hitting him with his best shots. i'll never forget - "Is that all u got Joe, is that all you got? my momma hits harder than that Joe"... Even Foreman said to see Ali taking his best shots and talk **** while doing it threw him off and messed with his mind....unbelievable.
Ali is the G.O.A.T. because he talked the the talk & walked the walk. (Something 99% of today's Feces talkers can NOT)
Ali was the best. He did it with style. It was an honor to be trashed talked about by Ali. And it was effective he made you feel "small". Other trash talkers like James Toney just look like "blowfish" trying to make themself look bigger.
Trash talk wise, it's Ali by FAR, PBF, Toney, Mayorga, Roger Mayweather vs. Rocky Lockridge Hamed was good fun too, Haye too,
He'd talk **** to Margo and then go out and put on a 12-0 clinic there is nothing that Margo can do to PBF in the ring that cheating plodding mummy wouldn't win a round dumbass.:deal Mayorga Vic D Hopkins Tarver Roy PBF Toney
right...he just acts like a 12 year old..obviously he doin something right cuz the muh fu34as he fights never loses..he does some good mind games imo and he got under oscar's skin and he got under rickys..
