    Tarver, with his power and southpaw jab have a shot?

    Id pick tarver. I think he would bother Ward with his jab, and catch him coming in

    I'd take Ward. Ward didn't do muh moving, but he could when needed to. Almost all of Tarver's losses are to fighters who kept turning him and sticking a jab in his face. I have no doubt Ward would do the same.

    Agreed. Doubtful Tarver's power would even be a big factor. Ward UD.

    I look at what Hopkins did to him (yeah I know Tarver was aged and weight drained, but Hopkins was even older and won 120-107), and I think in my mind Ward could do something similar

    Ward would win a horrible fight.
