    Is Tarver an ATG because he beat a bloated, past his prime RJJ? I think not. No one ever said Tarver Was an ATG.I am just surprised at all the people jumping on the calzaghe bandwagon when In all reality Only five maybe six of Calzaghe's opponents including Lacy were genuine top fighters Charles Brewer, Byron Mitchell, Richie Woodhall, Robin Reid and Chris Eubankfrom whom he won the title back in 97

        and how many top fighters are on hopkins and jones record? No ones resume is perfect. And hbo already said hopkins and jones 5 years ago were asking for ridiculous amounts of money to fight calzaghe. Plus, he even looked like a legitimate threat back then aswell.

              .
              Huh?

              Hopkins has beaten 4 Superstar fighters in De La Hoya, Trinidad, Wright and Tarver. Who exactly was it that Calzaghe beat again? Two rising superstars looking for the big fight? yeah that's right.

                Yeah that's ridiculous opposition.

                To be fair though, he kind of took Holmes out of the fight with the constant low blows in combinations. That was crazy.

                I've never seen that many low blows not be called in a fight before, ever.

                    Tarver should at least round out the bottem 10 at LHW.
