    He’s a bit small framed for middle and a bit flat footed to be fighting taller guys.

    I mean I’d say he could beat Graziano types.

    I think he could have knocked Sergio Martinez out.

    Might've knocked him down more than once but that's it, Sergio would've boxed circles around Tito for 12 rounds and all he would've done is follow him in hopes to land that big left hook.

    Define "best". Trinidad beats highly rated old boxers like LaMotta or Fullmer.

    LMAO. LaMotta and Fullmer were not boxing savants like Hopkins. They don't have ring smarts or size over Trinidad.

    I couldn't agree more. I think Martinez is a horrible match-up for Tito. Tito was at his best when he could plant his feet and throw that Hook. Martinez would not stay in front of him and allow him to plant his feet.

    Jeez I'd hate to think what Fullmer would do to Trinidad. He'd beat him from pillar to post befor knocking him out IMO

    I can't think of many more hopelessly painful match-ups for Tito than vs LaMotta.

    You couldn't think of worse matchups for Tito than a flat footed slugger?
    I just looked through your comment history. You will have me laughing for a long time.
