There are at least two boxers who believe Antonio Tarver will walk away from his April 12 fight against Clinton Woods empty handed.
The obvious guy is Woods, while the second nonbeliever is Roy Jones Jr.
In an interview with Sportinglife.com, Jones said Clinton will win the fight, which is for Woods’ IBF light heavyweight belt and Tarver’s IBO light heavyweight belt, and then he’ll take on the Sheffield, England, fighter.
‘’Clinton should win if he applies the pressure from early on,’’ Jones said. ‘’Tarver is essentially weak-minded and he gets nervous. He is mentally not the strongest person in boxing and this will be to Woods’ advantage.
‘’I think Clinton will win and then he can fight me.’’
Jones beat Woods with a sixth-round knockout in 2002 at Portland’s Rose Garden for the undisputed light heavyweight crown. At the 1:29 mark of that round, Woods’ corner threw in the towel following a vicious right from Jones.
