I like Tarver,For one thing hes bigger. I think Antonino would Outbox Rocky, maybe stop him late. I think Antonino has to box boxing skill &could & would out manuever the Rock.
A fight that wouldn't have been too logical for Rocky, as he would have suffered a big size deficit...being a natural middle to Tarver's lightheavyweight.
Tarver was a 6'3 big punching LHW who sometimes stepped into the ring at 190lbs after rehydrating against a short Junior Middleweight brawler who weighed 154 in the ring...hmmmm
