    Nevertheless Gr8 matchup! Tito is the better boxer, but lesser fighters have dropped him early. If JJ drops him early hhmmm, not sure how he gets up on steady legs as he always did.

    jackson bombs him out early. Any punch landed by Julian will move Trinidad and that next follow up shot--either left hook or right hand--finishes the guy.

    Andy Ruiz wins obviously.

    seriously though, Jackson is really tempting to pick for me. Tito had a fine chin but Jackson could crack it.

    But I think Tito was a better boxer and could ko Jackson as well.

    Tito by mid to late knock out.

    Tito is the far better overall fighter,,,but this fight is sooo dangerous that Tito's management wouldn't take it. Jackson can definitely pull the upset.

    who do you feel Tito avoided in real life to indicate his team would avoid this? Just curious?

    I think his management would go for it. Don’t forget Tito and his team were calling for Whitaker way before he’d shown slippage against Rivera and Hurtado. They also agreed to a Quartey fight before De La Hoya stepped in to fight Quartey and they were dumb enough to go with Winky Wright when he had his choice of opponents for the same pay.

    Jackson would have a punchers chance. Tito has the better fighters chance. My guess is the better fighter wins it before 4-5 rounds are completed.

    Same reason Joe Frazier didn't fight Earnie Shavers, yeah he should beat him, but it's risky

    It's actually even more condemning coz I do think that Tito stops him, and that Jackson has a very large punchers chance.

    Jackson has a punchers chance with anyone. Those first two rounds would be the most dangerous for Tito. I think Trinidad survives those moments and his precision Carries the day. Julian' s not going to take much from Trinidad either. Tito is the better boxer.
    I would lay off this fight.
