Would you want to see Hopkins go up in weight to fight Tarver for his cruiserweight belt?

Do you see Hopkins being able to beat him again and become a 3-weight world champ?

If Tarver gets hold of a genuine title then its a fight I can definitely see happening, wouldn't prove much as Hopkins would be a clear favourite but would be another title for him, always been surprised he's not dropped down to 168lbs for a tilt at a title there.

Wouldn't put it past Tarver to do a number on Hoppo. He is a southpaw, with an awkward action - and the king of winning rematches.

Anyway - I'd like Tarver to go and batter Huck into submission. That's top of my wish list for 2011.

Keep thinking Tarvers' belt is the IBF! Agreed that Tarver needs to get his hands on a proper belt (subjective term) for him to be a real champ at that weight.

Hopefully Tarver can land shot at the other belt holders and Hopkins call him out next year and be a champ still at 47!

Really impressed with Tarver's performance against Green, who looked clueless against the southpaw stance.
Hopkins - Tarver II would be a great fight from both a boxing and business perspective.

Freddie Roach has also said that he's thinking about arranging a fight between Tarver and his protege Lateef Kayode.
That would also be a great scrap. I'm a fan of Kayode and he looks very promising, this fight will really put him to the test.

Tarver looked good what I have seen of the fight so these pair having a matchup again would be worth a watch. Hopkins via decision for me

Their first fight was humiliatingly one sided. BHop is on a different level to Tarver.
