Letter "A" » Antonio Tarver Quotes
«I don't know where his psyche is but if I had a guy beating down on my door like that, a thorn in my ass for so long and then the way things turned out, I think that you could say I broke his psyche, yes. Because I never looked at him as the great Roy Jones Jr., the immortal champion, the guy that was unbeatable, unstoppable. I never looked at him like that. I always looked at him outta my eyes. And when I looked at him I saw him as a regular person. Just a man. And that's why I was able to go in there and have the confidence - and to know if I got the opportunity - I would be revered as the best fight he's ever faced. He was coming off of winning the heavyweight championship of the world when he faced Antonio Tarver. So I know, excuses aside, he hadn't faced a real fighter until he faced me.»
«If I give him a window of opportunity to get lucky, he has a great chance of upsetting me, ... I respect Roy and I can't underestimate him. If I do, that's his only chance for success.»
«I'm not...you know what? I'm not gonna say that the guy can't win. I mean, I don't know what he's doing in preparation. But I will make sure that I do everything in my power to make sure that victory escapes him. So that's my responsibility in this fight. I didn't come this far right now to take a back step. So that's my motivation and my determination. I'm gonna close the book on this guy. So get your tickets early because this will be your last RJ sighting and I'm determined to get rid of the guy once and for all.»

«I'm the legend killer. That's my new moniker. Like Roy Jones, Bernard Hopkins had his era and now he's got to go. Personally, I think he's nuts for even thinking he can beat me. But I'm not going to talk him out of (trying).»
«I bet $250,000 that he won't make it to the sixth round. I'm a man of my word and I gotta hold true to that.»
