Well Glen Johnson beating both RJJ and Tarver immediately after Tarver beat RJJ puts Tarver's achievement into perspective for me.

Tarver is probably the most overrated fighter of the past 10-20 years, living off fame that came with beating the shell of RJJ. I hope he never gets into the HOF but fear that he will.
Same here. Tarver is an imposter at heavyweight. Let a younger up and comer take him out.

Tarver should get at least one pass for having got rid of Roid Jones for us. I think he did such a service for boxing I’d let them inject liquidized tiger bollocks right into his fists.

No real surprise here just a shame he's done it again.

I'd actually quite warmed to him as a heavyweight.
Bad seeing him and Thompson both in the Boxrec Top 10

He won't get in with failing those tests, surely? Having said that RJJnr failed a test and was most probably juicing for most of his career.
