Antonio Tarver filed for bankruptcy just days before his stunning upset of Roy Jones, Jr. His $2 million payday and the opportunity that now lies before him could not have come at a better time.
My only question is will he demand to make more money than RJJ if there is a rematch. Despite the win, I think it is safer to say that RJJ will still be the bigger draw...if he doesn't retire.
