    Two monsters going to battle. Who wins?

    Lets say it's at 154lbs.

    Obviously there's no clear cut favorite here, but I feel that the most likely scenario is Jackson stretching Tito within 4-5.

    Tito gets floored but comes back to KO Jackson in middle round. Trinidad is too versatile as a puncher to lose this one.

    Fighters didn't get up after Jackson floored them.

    This ain't David Reid, or Vargas flooring Tito.

    I bet you could schedule it for 3 rounds and it wouldn't go the distance.

    No...I didn't mean that!!! It is always good to get a fresh perspective...I just mentioned it to see if anyone changes there minds or the results come out different. Forumns change over time.

    At 154? Tough one. Although Tito often went down early, he didn't get KTFO. Generally he came back. But against a puncher as big as the Hawk, who knows.

    Billed: who will be concussed first?!

    Pff. Hard to say. I think Tito has more heart, and manages distance better. He'd win the boxing match. Very useful here, I'm sure.

    That said, I don't think he takes Jackson's punch well.

    I also think that if Tito hurts Jackson first, Jackson is still dangerous like a wounded tiger.

    All in all, though I'd be rooting for Tito, I'd just make Jackson a favorite. 60/40 type affair.

    Trinidad plays it safe to win a near shut out boring decision.
