    True but Tarver never fights all the way through any given round.

    Anyways, I think Tarver will win by a stoppage or a KO once again. My heart is with Roy, but my brain is with Tarver. Roy lost his speed, he lost his reflexes, and he lost his heart.

    I know we'd all like to think that Roy can get back in shape and make a big comeback, but I'd just like to point ou to another guy who relied heavily on his reflexes and speed...The greatest of all time, Muhammad Ali. Everyone gets old. Ali got old, Tyson got old, Roy got old, and even Hopkins will get old eventually. These guys are all fighting time as much as they are their respective opponents.

    I'm not saying he doesn't have a chance here, but I am saying that history is not on his side in this one. Unless he gets some of that George Foreman miracle magic.

      Right. Picture this.

      IFS.

      If Roy beats Tarver....then rematches Johnson and beats him.....THEN Unifies the Cruiserweight belts by beating Mormeck (which he would with relative ease) OR Moves up to heavyweight and outclasses Chris Byrd.

      He is the greatest fighter of all time IMO.

      yes, better than Sugar Ray or Muhammad Ali.

        Still not even close. Not even in the same arena.

          I agree
          and that wont happen, so dont worry about it, it wont happen.



          I want rjj to win this fight. He is one of my favorite boxers, but when i discuss this fight, i get a queasy feeling in my stomach, because i think he is going to lose, and bad. Hopefully though, he can pull it together and beat tarver by ud or late ko
          one time for rjj

            I am surprised that as many people are taking Roy as the poll suggests...he didn't only get dropped in his last two fights, he was ko'd....I don't think Roy has the chin anymore...he should get out before he gets hurt...I will be blown away if he wins this
