    I don't give a crap that a 1998 Tito is too big for pacman .

    If we will look Tito at his fights with oscar at welter weight. Oscar is clearly the bigger and stronger guy. I will give the 2009 pacquiao a good chance with Tito back in 1998. Pacquiao's speed and punches from different angles is his assets. Pacquiao has power too.

    Tito in his later years before he retires, that's the bigger Tito. That version of Felix is maybe too big for pacman.

    Let's not forget that tito was in his prime at that time. He was considered the best at around that time after he beat delahoya. He moved up and destroyed david reid and fernando vargas.

    Trinidad was a monster at Welterweight. Sharp and hard punching, likely does the smaller Pacquiao in before the final bell.

    I am impressed with all of the responses. I was sure that the Pacquiao bandwagoners would say that Pac would destroy Trinidad. Trinidad by 5th round ko.

    This just goes to show how great Pacquiao is. I would never thought that Pacquiao have fantasy match with the like of Tito, Chaves, or Duran. Pacquiao is a truely great.

    You never know, Pacquiao might land that punch that was heard around the world and Tito may be laid out flat on his back like Hatton.

    wow, reminds me of Pac-DLH pre fight. The only time Pac looses fights these days is in these "fantasy matchups", it doesnt give Pac an opportunity to prove them wrong. :lol:

    LMFAO! I love that pic!
    As for the fight...I'm pretty sure Tito by KO. I wouldn't be surprised if Pac pulled it out though, and picked Tito apart.
    Actually, if Pac were a little more defensively, and less offensively (though he wouldn't be as exciting), and keep his hands up more I'd actually pick Pac by decision.
    The reason I pick Tito is because I see the fight like this....Pac ***** slapping Tito for 3-4 rounds until he gets a little to confident, and Tito catches him during a flurry, and smashed him up. If Pac keeps his hands up...I got pac by UD.
