Just watched it, thought Tarver looked good in there, he was very relaxed and most of the punches Murqui was throwing were hitting gloves elbows or catching air. Tarver landed a left hand in the 6th round that sounded like it should have taken Murquis head off.
Any idea who Tarver might be fighting next? I'm guessing he rematches someone like Montell Griffon, Glen Johnson or Reggie Johnson.

No he wont, he not crazy.
Only Tarver haters want to see him fight Chad.
You don't think he's got a shot to beat Dawson?

I disagree to me Tarver looked like shit and honestly I could see the fight going either way. I had it for Tarver but it was close a draw should have been the outcome what I didnt like was Tarver discrediting the performance of Muriqi Honestly, the man did better against Tarver than Tarver did against Hopkins did better than Jones did against Tarver in the second and third fights.
I think I may be the biggest Tarver fan here on ESB, but to face Dawson now, after such a long layoff, would be lunacy. But if he is going to do it, he needs to take 2 or 3 more tune up fight before taking on this young fighter. I think he should do fights with Glen Johnson, Jeff Lacy and Adamek. If he wins those fights then he should think about Dawson.
He already declined, twice, to face Adamek while the Pole held a world title. No way he faces him now. As to Johnson, he was also reluctant to fight a rubbermatch with the guy.
Imo, the less we hear about Tarver, the better.
Will you stop fuckin' hating on this guy. Tarver is a good fighter.
He flaps those suckalips too much. What did he say after his last fight? He's already an ATG or some shit? If he beats Hopkins he will retire right away as P4P #1? I don't even pay attention to the him anymore. :dead
He is an ATG he destroyed the P4P King 3x in a row, what else does he have to do to prove it?
Do you consider Buster Douglas an ATG?

Although I wasn't as shocked with Tarver knocking Jones out as I was Buster knocking Tyson out, Jones had shown clear vulnerabilities and that he might be going down hill. Tyson still seemed to be invincible. Let me ask you this, is Glenn Johnson ATG?

Murqui's team was yelling "bullshit" in the ring and saying he got robbed, acting very unproffesional, they provoked Tarver into his statements. I definitely think Jones did better in his third fight against Tarver than Murqui did against a Tarver with a year lay off.

When the fuck did you see Jones show vunerablities, you kweif?
Jones last outing was against John Ruiz and all the fucking Jones nuthuggers were popping champagne because of Jones supposed "brillance" in that fight.
All you asshole are talking all this shit AFTER Tarver flattend his ass!
You mean to tell me you saw Jones getting KO'd in the 2nd?:(
Especailly when Roy had never been KO'D before?
Shut the fuck up with your BULLSHIT!
No one saw that shit coming!:-(
Did Tarver flatten Roy in the first fight???? Unless i missed something then no he did not.... Don't get too jumpy bro! I was talking about the first Tarver fight when I saw Roy being vulerable for the first time, which made me real nervious for the second fight, in fact I really didnt know if Roy could win. I was shocked at the KO.... and i never said i saw it coming, i just simply stated i was more shocked when Buster KO'ed Tyson.
I don't know why you had to take it personal, I wasn't discrediting your boy... Saying he is not ATG doesnt take a thing from Tarver, IMO!
Take it easy and read what i was trying to say :good

BTW, please explain why you think Tarver is ATG. That was what I was trying to get out of you before you blew up on me.

Actually--you are wrong as usual.
Jones's last decent outing was the WIN against Tarver---which you still haven't posted your scorecard for that fight--
Jones looked very beatable and that was the worst Jones ever looked in a win.
Please stop posting your BS that Tarver beat him 3 times in a row when less than 10% of people believe that.
Tarver is not an ATG as of now. He was beaten by a faded RJJ, by Johnson, and then by Bhop coming up 2 weight classes and off 2 losses.
