Hopkins landed 259 punches on Tarver....it is like 25% of the punches Calzaghe landed on Lacy....

Totally landed shots in the fight 385. Calzaghe alone landed 1006 punches on Lacy and his rate of hits was about 70%
Just illustrates two counter punchers. Calzaghe could land a zillion punches on Lacy, but that doesn't mean he would beat Hopkins or Tarver. He probably wouldn't.

If you still think Tarver would live with Calzaghe you are a fool, please tell how a slow no stamined guy like Tarver deals with the speed and movement of Calzaghe??

I honestly believe Cazlzaghe would go a similar number if not a better number on Tarver than Hopkins, i bet Joe is kicking himself now, thinking what could of been if he had got there first.
