    Does Tarver's stock raise with this win?

    Do you think Tarvers stock will go up after beating the 50th ranked fighter in the division? I mean really...this was a "gimme" for Tarver. I'm still not impressed with the guy. I believe he has very little chance of beating Lacy, Dawson or Woods.

    Nope. Hes fighting bums. I think hes a long way off Dawson and his age means its not going to narrow.

      no, even though he knocked Santi out, he still didnt seem dominant. this comin from a Tarver fan.

        Santiago wasn't in as good of shape as he claimed. His body looked soft and Tarver took advantage. Tarver still looks like he's way past his prime. Not a shot fighter but he's about one KO loss from that

            Agreed.........but Tarver is one of those that makes it look easy because he's got good power. His next fight has to be a major player, hopefully it will be Dawson. He can't live off the RJJ knockout forever.

              A win always raises your stock... Depending on where you were b4 it.

              and seeing as how tarver was dominated by a guy moving up in weight *(hopkins)* This fight no matter the Competition *(as long as it was a natural light heavy)* should only add to him..

                  lackluster win.
                  tarver looked good in the 1st. but started pitterpatterying in 2nd.
                  he overwelmingly outclassed santi by far.
                  tarver gained padding on his record but stock didnt raise.
