Could Tarver knock out Hopkins?

[Benncollinsaad]

Hopkins is just a flat out better fighter than Tarver...

Youre right. Had Tarver been his old self, Hopkins would just retreat and defend himself by butting and hugging Tarver to death!

Tarver isn't nice. People get fooled when they see a great on his back but understand that Roy just got a glass jaw. Hopkins is a surgeon and will win on points every time. It would be boring to see though.

[Iceta]

Hell no. Hopkins just had the style and ring smarts to neutralize Tarver's strenghts.

Youre all forgetting that Tarver also knocked out Eric Harding in five rounds, the man who gave Roy his toughest fight, by his own admission, before having to retire after 10 rounds due to a pulled muscle.

Haha, what a logic! Tarver got tired and was simply overrun by Harding. But still he managed to hang in there and last out the fight.

If he wasn't poisoned then yes.

First off,I think Tarver koing Jones was a fluke!!With that out the way,Bernard looked stronger at 170,than he did at 160 & being that B-Hop has not been hurt plenty,Idoubt Tarver could ever ko him!!

Tarver doesn't have concussive power, he has good power. Hopkins has a world class defense one of the best in the world and great beard behind that so when he does get tagged he'd staying up.

Hopkins is also the more versatile and better boxer than Tarver who fights in spurts.

ugh Tarver had ot lose fat, not at all like Roy who had to lose muscle
