    I think Tarver will. Dont really see anymore big fights for him at all.

    Hopkins SHOULD retire first (retiring as a top 5 P4P is great going at his age) but I agree with Kingfrnk that Tarver will be first.

    hopkins has kinda entered into semi retirement

    if your inactive for a year and it isnt because of any injury you should really be seen as being out of the picture. I do think he`ll fight once more next year and call it a day then while jones/tarver will go chasing easy money and floyd will probably wanna step back up and dominate at 154 once he has got through marquez and pacquiao
    one dangerous horrible bloke

    Floyd will definitely retire last. Mainly because he is going broke, he owes the IRS back taxes and he continues to spend his money like a 5 year old kid.

    And in the end, he will be broke.

    Tarver will retire first, the main reason being he doesn't have any "names" left that he can beat.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    yup, B-Hop still has options, winner of Johnson/Dawson II, Adamek, or even a rekindled Jones rematch

    Jones, after beating Lacy has plenty of options as well, Green, Hopkins rematch, winner or certain losers of super six

    and Mayweather, no comment needed

    Agreed. Tarver doesn't have a fanbase and got outclassed twice by Dawson. He looks old and lacks output and snap on his punches these days. He will be the first to go.

    Yea, but he might still retire from boxing first and get his money from the WWE.

    BHop will retire and never fight again.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I would say Tarver, it looks like there is no demand for him nowhere plus he never has been one of the fan's darling.
