Default RE: Roy Jones Junior vs. Antonio Tarver - Fight #3

Round 8
The crowd starts chanting "Tarver" as Jones continues to stay AWOL from any real action. Jones' performance looks less convincing than Mr. T's in Rocky III. Tarver lands the occasional jab and easily takes the round.

Round 9
Tarver is landing jabs, Jones still looks like he's trying to figure out how to get inside for a knockout shot. Jones lands the occasional punch, including a hard right, but never follows with another.
ESPN.com scores it: Tarver 10-9



Round 10
Tarver still looks like he has the energy, but it doesn't look like he has a clue to solve Tarver's difficult style. Tarver keeps landing combinations, Jones lands the occasional hard shot. Jones finally lands a combination late in the round, but Tarver backs Jones off with a stiff right hook.
ESPN.com scores it: Tarver 10-9



Round 11
Tarver was told by his corner to get busy and he comes out swinging. Jones still looks fresh. Then Tarver starts a bruising series of shots to the head, but Jonjes gamely keeps his feet despite appearing stunned. Jones fights back and Tarver looks exhausted, but Jones isn't able to take full advantage.
