I wanna say this...I can't stand Tarver either...period...but the bastard has talent & no if's &'s or but's he did defeat pretty much the best 175lb fighters that would fight him.

You just can't deny it.

Agreed.

Thing is...I just don't see it happening that way.

I just don't see anyone out there right now at 175lbs that can take Tarver out.

Truthfully...I'd have been a hell of a lot more satisfied with Hopkins retirement & Tarver vs Calzaghe...because I think that Calzaghe still has enough left to outbox Tarver.
