    Because there's a lot of Roy fans out there. Tarver's attitude doesn't help him any either.

    its the building up of a fight....I dont see what the big deal is. The gloves come off, this isnt baseball.

    That's a good question. I don't really know why either. At best, I figure, most people would assume an act of indifference. But some fans really hate this guy.

    simply because he talks himself up so much and then fights some who
    a) just got beat by Zsolt Erdei and.....
    b)is ranked like 46th by the IBO?????

    he was offered several lucrative fights and either prices himself out or asks who they fought, well who has elvir muriqi fought??? how about danny santiago???

    Simple question, simple answer

    He killed a legend in Roy Jones, I think the 2nd fight made everyone that loved Jones shed a tear. I cant say I was one them, but it was shocking to see Jones layed out with one punch.

    Yea but its so much worse now.... especially when he goes on his rants about how he's the champion of the division and he was poisoned against hopkins
