Love this interview. Not many people's passion comes through their voice the way it does for Tarver
Back to back dropping. Awesome!!
Shawn had to have invested more than 100k + on this podcast ! S/O Shawn Porter for giving us great content !
Shawn motivated us with his heart in the ring his father trained a beast and we could see that every fight! He came to fight! He has that dog in him, Mad respect to Porter and Tarver for being dogs!
Now this is an interview . With a fighter good job
Appreciate your podcast 🙏🏽 Shawn, this really podcast really grown on me so glad you're apart of boxing, Huge shout out to Antonio magic 🎩 men taver, speaking facts
Taver needs to be a regular ima young boxer we need this

Love tarver, this pump new life in me listening!
Shawn: Yeah , yeah , yeah..... yeah Yeah yeah yeah ... Yea yeah
Glad To See Tarver Speak Light Of Sammy Watson A Good Guy For Sure Didnt Even Know How Involved With Boxing He Was When I Met Him But I’m Happy To See Him Still Thriving And Looking Good 💯🙏🏾
This is a great one, Shawn and the Magic Man. You both do a great job commentating.
Beterbiev is going to beat the BRAKES off Bivol. Shoutout to Tarver for speaking the truth. Don’t see how anyone thinks Bivol wins.

Goats? He was good maybe great not all time though
Great interview and lessons! This is what boxing podcasts are missing. No rants… clickbait. Straight boxing experience, lessons and psychology of boxing.
Tarver is the real deal and he is correct about Beterbiev vs Bivol and I'm a fan of Bivol especially after he destroyed Canelo. Beterbiev reminds me of a Marvin Halger type boxer. The grittier it gets, the better he gets and that dawg really starts coming out. One those type of dudes that will eat 2/3 of your best joints to come back and unleash a brick on you. Bivol is a great boxer and one of the best but Beterbiev is a junkyard dawg, alley cat type of boxer, who can box or brawl. I have seen some of his matches where he is boxing his azz off, like Marvin Hagler. The Marvelous one loved an good opponent who was a skilled boxer. He hated Sugar Ray but he loved him too because Sugar Ray could box and RIP Marvin Hagler like that kinda party too, especially if he beat that azz! Because he would out box his opponent more like dominant his opponent and he was so well conditioned he was ready. It was very hard to outwork him, Beterbiev is like that. You might be a better boxer, more skilled but you are not going to out box and outwork him...that's a problem for Bivol. Bivol reminds me of Ali a bit, finesse, technically sound, smart, works the angles, crisp jabs, footwork is respectable but for a boxer like Beterbiev that's just playing into his wheelhouse. He like opponents like that, he likes that type of challenge from his opponent. Nothing but respectful.
Tarver what did it take; " IT TOOK EVERYTHING" . LOVE IT 💯
Great interview tarver need be back on show frfr🔥🔥🔥🔥
Very very inspiring interview!! Shout out to Tarver!!
i can listen to Antonio for hours, thanks for wisdom my brother
This was a great interview. So many quotable lines from Tarver.
I'm a big fan off both of these guys. Great interview
Boxing version of Kevin Garnett lol I would love to see tarver go on Garnett platform and talk about sports that interview gon be full of intensity 🤣🤣
Best interview yet!!
Oh boy I have been waiting for this one!!!
I don't know breh...I walways thought Kell was handling you kinda smoothly.
I was always a fan of Antonio Tarver. His skills are great, but his mentality is impeccable! You can see how excited he gets talking about boxing, boxing styles, & certain fighters. True student of The Game! You gotta listen when he talks, he is like an uncle that is giving his nephew stern, sound advice!
Sean this was a powerful interview. God bless you
I’m looking forward to going back and seeing these Tarver Vs Johnson fights now
Tarver criminally underatted! Refreshing to see a break downs line this. Gift the sport!!! Bring him back Shawn!!!
Love Shawn but the way Tarver explains how Shakur should have fought his last fight reminds me of what bud did to showtime
Tarver talk that talk always give good insight
2 legends. Amazing podcast
Excellent interview!
Man Tarver is 100% on point! Great analysis and explanations on the fighters and their styles as well as what each needs to win! This only comes with a good observative and analytical eye! Being objective and non biased!
Much love to The Magic Man! A.T. 💯
I just discovered that my favorite fighter has a show! Immediately subscribed. Tarver is one of the baddest MFS ever, hands down, and the new gen fighters better listen to the man that KOd Roy. Porter, you're the man indeed! Keeping it real and talking intelligently about the sport I love! SHOWTIME!
Love unity Antonio let us pray.
Salute @AntonioTarver great interview
Amazing interview! 🤞🏿
Tarver be calling these fights correctly ahead of time. He really knows what he’s looking at in that ring. Thankfully, he also has enough idgaf to call it exactly how it is
He said I’m the Magic Man bruh nah… Iconic interview with two greats of the sport of boxing… FLA 🌊
Tarver is the best explaining things.
Tarver’s iq for the game and how he dissects certain fighters, fights, styles etc. is beyond amazing!
This video is a gem
This interview needs waaayyy more likes
Man this the best interview Tarver a mf og - UPSET KING🔥🔥
Tarver be spittin that real
ON MY MOMMA ITS NEVER TOO LATE , WE GOING FORWARD NOT STOPPING !!! AMEN SHAWN !!!
I somewhat agree with Target about his take on Beterbiev vs Bivol. I feel like the winner of that fight depends on when the fight occurs. If they fight this year then I agree with Tarver that Beterbiev wins. But if due to politics they don’t fight with until two years from now and now Beterbiev is 40 years old then I think Bivol wins. Based on Beterbievs age time is of the essence to make this fight happen.
Awesome episode

I always wanted to interview Tarver ... I always appreciated his voice. It's a damn shame how he was x'd from commenting. His story definitely needs to tell it. I only hope that when they do, eventually, share his story they ask the right questions.
Somebody hire this man!
P4P best boxing podcast out there
The Magic Man without doubt the best coolest American cat today and is always spot on with the fight analysis

Aye how I miss this one I’m tell you right now I made bank betting with travers picks. He knows his shit fasho.
man...Tarver vs Rocky was an amazing fight back in the days
Tarver does have a high boxing IQ. His boxing mind is something the new generation should tap into
Beautiful Analysis from the champ Mr.Tarver, on how Beterbiev beating Bivol because Beterbiev doesn't waste alot energy, Beterbiev knocked out C.Smith and dropped him twice which no one else has done 👍 also the way he dropped him was EPIC.....But I just got one question ❓ for my man Mr.Tarver, Got any excuses Roy? Lol much respect Champ 🏆
You feel me
Tarvar needs to be interviewed and consulted more often.
Magic man is that guy
Huge boots fan but that take spot on can’t sleep on veteran ring generalship in bud
Tarver shows the levels when it comes to talking with some of these interviewers slash former boxers.
Opetaia would be a tough fight for Beterbiev, Both have Power and can box it would be a 50/50 fight.
