    anyone else notice how many ***in times Buddy McGirt had to tell Tarver to wake up and pay attention ! Clearly ignoring Buddy's instructions to THROW THE DAM JAB !

    Had he thrown a jab he might have been able to land something but he was too focused on landing one BIG PUNCH and in the process got picked apart repeatedly. Props to HOPKINS, every time he gets written off in a fight he steps up and proves everyone wrong.

        DiegoFuego I also predicted Hop would "dig in that ass" Just so yall all know. I do think the weight played a factor,but I don't want to give Tarvers ***** ass an excuse, just like "any excuses tonight Roy". Even know Tarvers ***** ass tried to weisel it in as an excuse. He needs to call Roy an Apologize if thats the case, for talkin so much ****. Not as easy a u thought Milk Dud !

          Hops is a bad style for Tarver, and at the same time it is obvious that Tarver is not prepared to deal with highly skilled fighters when they are well prepared (and fully hydrated). Tarver had problems dealing with Roy's speed every time, and Hops defense and speed also got to him.

          He is a B level fighter. His main refuge is his height, stance, and power...not really his skills.

            And that one lucky shot he landed with his eyes closed...

              i dont how you guys see it but tarver looked just the way he always looked fighting, defending or attacking, and that just wouldnt fly with a seasoned boxer like BHop, just look at all his fights throw a puch at him and he just turtle shells, time him on his way out of the shell and he wont throw a damn thing all night.

                Tarver did not look quite like his normal self. He was a bit slower, and he definitely fatiqued faster just like roy did when Roy came down inw eight, although it wasn't as obvious in Tarver's case.
