Basically Tarver threw so many punches they had no choice but to award him the rounds. He wasnt really hurting Johnson. I mean Johnson was taking a pounding but he kept coming. Johnson came on towards the last 5 rounds. I think he won 4 of them.

The 11th round was the best round of the fight and probably one of the best in Light Heavyweight boxing's recent history. Both guys were throwing heymakers and beating the piss out of eachother. Johnson specifically. For a moment it looked like he was going to knock Tarver out in the 11th.

The 12th round came. The corner for Johnson was brilliant. He basically told him after the 9th that he had to drop Tarver. After the 11th he was like." 3 FUCKING MINUTES. I want you to go out there and give him everything and drop his ass!" Good stuff. ( exact oppisite of Trinidad's corner )

Tarver basically came out and didnt let Johnson get any flurries. Grabbed him alot and held him. Johnson had nothing left anyways.

They were saying that there should be a third fight. Honestly. I think there should. But not for a while.
