    Bc no one cares! Ok it doesnt make sense but seriously Tarver has no business at HW..he should retire on what had been a good career. Personally I have never liked him as a boxer but he did his thing successfully.

    Green looked good against Flores. Tarver looked spent and out of shape in his debut.

    Green has been on a decent streak since his comeback. Tarver has been inactive, I heard he looked alright in his HW fight though? When's the fight?

    Tarver isn't the favorite because he's faaar past his best days. Green is no world beater but he probably has enough to handle the current version of Tarver.

    It's in Australia. Tarver has 0.01 percent chance to win, he has to get a KO, but he won't. Green will have loaded gloves, his own judges, and his own ref. Tarver needs a KO...and he probably won't get it.

    Well if the vids of Tarver training that have appeared on YouTube are anything to go buy then Green has this one in the bag. Green KO under 6 IMO

    Green's been looking tough... I would be surprised if Tarver pulled it off.
