Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2015-08-14, disappointing fight between
Antonio Tarver and Steve Cunningham: it gets two stars.
The former light-heavyweight world champion Antonio Tarver (he is 46 years old, seven years older than Cunningham) entered this fight with a professional boxing record of 31-6-0 (22 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.8 heavyweight in the world (currently the #1 in this division is Wladimir Klitschko). He suffered his last defeat in 2009 when he faced Chad Dawson, since then he has collected four victories and one no-contest; he fought just once in 2014 beating Johnathon Banks (=Tarver vs Banks).
His opponent, the former Ibf cruiserweight champion Steve Cunningham, has a record of 28-7-0 (13 knockouts) and he entered as the No.13 in the same weight class but he comes off the loss against Vyacheslav Glazkov (=Glazkov vs Cunningham). Tarver vs Cunningham is the main event of the evening. Watch the video and rate this fight!
Review: 2014-12-11, pretty boring fight between Antonio Tarver and Johnathon Banks: it gets two stars. The former Wbc, Wba and Ibf light-Hw champion Antonio Tarver entered this fight with a boxing record of 30-6-0 (21 knockouts) while his opponent, Johnathon Banks, has an official record of 29-2-1 (19 knockouts). Both boxers are not ranked as they haven’t fought since more than one year: in their last fight Tarver defeated Mike Sheppard (=Tarver vs Sheppard) while Banks lost to Seth Mitchell in their rematch (=Banks vs Mitchell 2). Tarver vs Banks is on the undercard of Austin Trout vs Luis Grajeda. Watch the video and rate this fight!
Review: 2013-11-26, pretty good finish but it is not enough to get three stars: Antonio Tarver vs Mike Sheppard gets two. Antonio Tarver, 43 years-old, entered the fight with a record of 29-6-0 (20 knockouts) while Mike Sheppard had a record of 21-15-1 (9 knockouts). Tarver vs Sheppard is valid for the interim NABA heavyweight title. Watch the video!
Review: 2012-06-02, pleasant fight between Antonio Tarver and Lateef Kayode but it is not enough to get three stars (fight ended by split decision). Antonio Tarver (29-6-0) entered as the No.2 cruiserweight in the world while the undefeated Lateef Kayode (18-0-0) entered as the No.8. Tarver vs Kayode is valid for the IBO cruiserweight title (Tarver’s first defense). Watch the video!
Review: 2004-05-15, Antonio Tarver and Roy Jones Jr faced for the first time in 2003, fight ended in favour of Roy Jones, but in 2004 there was the rematch. This time Tarver knocked Roy Jones Jr out in just two round! Antonio Tarver entered the fight with a record of 21-2-0 while Roy Jones Jr had a record of 49-1-0. Tarver vs Roy Jones Jr 2 was named Ring Magazine “Knockout of the Year” and was valid for the WBC, WBA, IBO and WBF (vacant) light heavyweight titles. Watch the video!
Review: 2011-07-20, important and pleasant victory for Antonio Tarver against Danny Green. For “Magic Man” Antonio Tarver was the first attempt to win a world title in the cruiserweight division while for Danny Green this was his fifth defense of the IBO belt. Watch the video!
