Matter of fact, look at the Toney fight, then look at the Tarver fight and ask yourself again if you notice a HUGE difference.

No..... Right before the first tarver fight he had a career defining performance against Ruiz
He had a bad night in the first tarver fight because of the weight loss.
He was in great shape for the second fight but got KTFO still close to his prime. That shot would of put him out at any stage and no amount of reflexes would have saved him. He had Mackie shilstone for that fight and looked phenomenal in the first round
