    I was watching some old Trinidad fights last night on youtube and I couldn't help but think of some fantasy matchups. They are both in my top 5 for all time favorite so I'm not sure who I would pick but I might lean for Toney.

    What do you all think? How would this play out to you?

    Toney's defense and counter punching or Tito's aggression and power shots?

    Toney, easily. Trinidad was a puncher, he won't beat a superior boxer in his prime. The only two boxers Trinidad faced at 160 completely dominated him. De La Hoya even outboxed his ass(DLH would've won had he fought down the stretch). This is a terrible matchup for Tito. My prediciton, one sided beat down in favor of Toney.

    Come on....Trinidad doesn't even have a punchers chance in this one, much less a chance in a straight up match up.

    Toney would stop him in about 6 rounds IMHO.

    Toney would win a wide decision or even stop him late. Toney would be much bigger and Tito's greatest strength, his punching power wouldn't be enough to hurt Toney.

    Toney easily. Btw? Trinidad's best is at 47 so it's a rather poor comparison.

    Toney of course. No disrespect to Tito though. He was a badass mofo at 147.
