    According to an ESPN writer:

    "I have been hearing that Tarver is pricing himself out. If that is true, I would not be surprised one iota."

    Not sure why he would do that. Dawson definitely looked beatable against Johnson, and it's currently the biggest fight out there for Tarver. Unless he is looking at a possible matchup with Byrd.

    If he asks for a dollar, he's overpricing himself.

    I think a lot of fighters around 175 are going to be watching this fight with interest.

    Tarver is running around calling himself the unified LHW champion and why wouldn't he price himself out? It's obvious he thinks he worth far more than he actually is. He's worse than Winky ever was in terms of overrating his value.

    Fuck Tarver!

    Seriously, biggest clown in all of boxing. He even talks shit about Hopkins as if Hopkins didn't beat his ass all over the ring.

    He's on something if he thinks he's the best fighter at 175 that's for sure.

    Unfortunately for him, the only evidence he has is his performance.:lol:

    Hey, you want the name, you have to pay for it. Tarver is 39, he has a belt again. Does Dawson believe he´ll get Tarver cheap? :dunno: :dunno:

    Light heavyweight is the seniors tour right now.

    There's some money to be made in that division.

    Like seemingly everyone, he'd like to fight Calzaghe but I'm not sure Warren even mentions his name. It isn't on the radar.

    Honestly, if this fight doesn't get made I wouldn't mind seeing Tarver and Johnson go back at it.
