Donald Curry vs Felix Trinidad 147lbs primes

I don't know but this is one of the best match ups of the last half century.

 

Definitely Trinidad by stoppage. In fact I dont give Curry much of a chance.

Curry didn't have the durability to beat Trinidad, and if we're being honest, nor did he have the heart to beat Trinidad. He also didn't have the footspeed necessary to avoid Trinidad all night.

Curry would build an early lead and probably score an early KD, but by the mid-rounds Tito would start to find the range, and from there its downhill for Curry. Tito's power, pressure, and accuracy would be too much.

Trinidad by KO between 7-10.

 

No ducking this time… gun to your knee who ya got? It’s Curry… it better be Curry.

 

I want to say Curry, because his style is more to my tastes and there are so many things he does better. Unfortunately, my trust in Trinidad's chin standing up to a preponderance of Donald's shots is much stronger than in him standing up to a preponderance of Félix's.

 

Curry by UD or late stoppage.

 

My same position exactly. Curry’s style was very appeasing to the eye. But he just wasn’t built to last against this type of an opponent.

 

Curry by decision in my opinion. The Cobra's speed would have prevailed over Tito's power.

 

A lot of overrating of Curry and underrating of Tito in these responses. Curry didn't have the traits to beat Trinidad.

 

Should be Curry but Tito is a dangerous dude

 

Curry by decision or more likely TKO. He was rapier sharp before the weight caught up with him. I'd take him anywhere from Stafford to McCrory. After that it would be Tito.

 

Curry 8th round TKO.
