exactly - while the cotto fight shouldn't even be on ppv it has the promise of some big ko's w/ cotto and duddy compared to seeing a double hopkins induced comatose state
Hopkins is a legend & Tarver is more proven then many fighters today. You don't think Hopkins is a legend???
tarver lost to an old roy jones jr. how is he proven? Hopkins is a legend for sure, but imo Tarver is an overhyped good fighter who was just lucky enough to be at his best when roy was at his worst. The thing with Tarver is that he has roy jones on his list of victories, and that looks like a huge thing...but you have to realize, it was an old rjj he beat...and also, an old rjj he lost to.

Tarver beat Jones twice, he beat Johnson, Harding, Griffen etc.. Actually I had Tarver winning the first fights with Jones & Johnson.
In my opinion Tarver is 3-0 against Jones. Also lets not forget that Tarver is actually a little older then Jones.
i voted Cotto cuz cotto is one of my fav. fighters, its definately not worth being PPV though. the undercard is **** too. i prolly might not order either one
neither fight is really ppv worthy..but i will buy the cotto fight before i buy the tarver vs. hopkins ppv for the following reasons..1st. the tarver vs. bhop fight will get replayed by hbo within 2 weeks of the fight ..also this fight will be very boring neither hops or tarver like to press the action so who is going to make this fight ??, the press confrences will have more action than the fight .....while cotto is a up and coming superstar and paulie is not really proven they are both young.. i like most excpect cotto to walk thru this guy but atleast it will be exciting and both guys will be willing to fight ..also the atmosphere in the garden will be off the hook the day before the p.r. parade all the puertoricans and italians in attendace are going to get that place going crazy.. this is very important because when you watch a fight on tv you are also feeding of the crowd every time i saw a tito fight i could feel the electricity and excitement from my couch ...and finally price and undercards toprank will have better undercards and a better price...
