    it wasnt a pointless question. c'mon, tarver ain't that bad.

    Charles by KO in 8 or less rounds. Tarver is way out of his league here.

    I pick Charles to beat a peak Tarver by decision.

    These questions are never pointless.

    You can hear a nuget of info about one fighter or the other, hear opinions on style clashes, learn about rule clashes from the point of view of the respective eras, loads of stuff.

    It will be much more interesting to see you dismiss every opinion without presenting a shred of evidence aside form slagging of his opponents - "he was ****, he was ****, he was ****, he beat him, but he was ****, there was a war on, everyone was rubbish..."

    The only thing that stopped Charles from winning the Middleweight title was WWII. He was at LT.Heavy just long enough to beat Archie Moore 3 times KOing him once when nobody else would fight Moore.He won the Heavyweight Title in 1949 defending it 8 times.He is also the only man to go 15rds with Rocky Marciano .I'd say thats a fair Resume.Charles KOs Tarver middle rounds

    Tarver bothers Ezzard with his reach, southpaw jab and awkward left early. Once or twice, we'd see a very clear scoring punch by Tarver in the first 3 rounds. Then Ezzard finds the right, and knocks Antonio the **** out.
