Actually Tarver knocked Jones out before Johnson did.

@Wacko, I don't think weight is going to be a factor in Floyd's career. I don't think he plans to move up again and he's never moved back down a weight class before.

When he fought Oscar he basically weighed the same as he did for his welterweight fights, proudly boasting how he entered the ring at 148 lbs on fight night, lighter than in some previous welterweight fights.

I think Floyd is a perfectionist, he doesn't make mistakes like that, everything he does is planned to precision imo.
