          Young Roy beats Tarver, Roy was different back then in so many ways...

            Roy clearly beat Tarver in a tough fight in their 1st meeting.

            IMO, had they fought around the time Roy was at Lt heavy (beofre moving to Heavy), Roy's speed and reflex would have allowed him to beat Tarver by points about 9 rounds to 3.

            Roy was ripping durable top Lt Heavyweights to shreads, like his one sided beating of Clinton Woods, and beating Julio Gonzalez 120 -105.

            Tarver's height and stance would have made for a competitive fight, but Roy was untouchable a few years back.

            Not to mention, at that time you had a much greener Tarver losing a wide decesion to Eric Harding.

              I agree, like Merchant said after the fight "closley but clearly".

                Just to let you know. He did lose the ESPN polls. Tarver won the poll.

                  Thats because HBO and Tarver brainwashed the fans. I don't see anyway in hell Tarver won that fight. Maybe a draw...

                    I don't remember that.

                    The HBO polls had it spot on"



                    Regardless, I don't see any way anyone could have had that fight scored for Tarver. Even a draw is being extremly generous.

                    Tarver only fought in spurts, and did so in very few of the rounds.

                    Having it even after 10 is about right, and Jones DIFINITIVLY took 11 and 12.

                    All those who talk about Jones never having to dig deep or fighting through adversity need look no further than the 1st Jones Tarver fight.

                      you People can stick to your delusions.

                      Roy won the first fight with Tarver. He landed the more effective punches, exhibited better ring generalship, and for the most part.....Tarver was inactive.

                      If you consider taking round, after round, off...and merely looking for one big punch to land winning:

                      We have a problem.

                      I scored the fight highly in favor of Jones.
