According to this idiot Scoop Malinowski, read the comment section and you will see " A lot of people underestimate Tarver because they think he caught Roy on the downslide and maybe it was a lucky shot but Tarver psyched Roy out mentally before the fight and put on one of the most unforgettable one-punch KOs in boxing history that night. I absolutely believe Tarver is an ATG based on that one sensational win".

Lol. . . Tarver ain't ATG status cause of that, but it's really not fair to detract from those wins over Roy. . . He really sparked him cold. . . He was the first to find that sweet-spot. . . Roy isn't as much of a "glass jawed" boxer, as he just simply has a "sweet spot" on the side of his head.
Yes, but this was the beginning of Roy developing his "sweet spot", which would be found many more times over the ensuing years. . . Make no mistake about it, boxers can develop "sweet spots", and still have decent chins. . . Tarver caused Roy to develop his sweet spot.
It was a great win for Tarver, but no chance in hell is he even within sniffing distance of 'great' status. That's absurd.
