    Um, pretty much everyone beats on Tarver in sparring.

    Ok, but Chris should have been the winner yesterday Arben, regardless of one-liners, terse comments from posters here and on other sites, and from folks that don't know how to score a fight.
    The Candadian broadcasters at ringside and in the studio had Chris winning the fight as well.

    You watch the fight Karl and then say what you think.
    I had Chris losing a close fight.

    I only watched the fight up until round 10, then it cut off, but if I recall correctly Chris still would have lost even if he won the last 2.

    I have watched it twice.
    You also said that Chris lost to Rayco Saunders as well in a fight he won big on points, and that Freitas was going to dump Juan.

    He didnt win big on points, you are clearly seeing things , the judges scores were 96-93 96-93 and 95-94 for Saunders, that isnt "big" on points.
    Campbell also had Saunders winning that one as well for the record.
    Chris was hurt bad in the 8th in Romania and lost too many of the early mid rounds but he gave a great account of himself and shouldnt be ashamed.
    I dont see him beating Dawson or Johnson but there are some higher ranked guys that he would look good against and hopefully one day can get a title shot.
