    They were both at their best at 147 but they had success in the higher weights. Griffith IMV would have been just right at 154 as far as size is concerned.
    Does Emile's all around game trump Tito's precision and power?

    Emile didn't hit as hard as Tito...neither was he as exciting as Tito,....but guess what? EG was FAR stronger, smarter, and savvier than Trinidad....he was i.e., better than Trinidad...and what Robert posted goes for me...a welter Griffith ko's Felix, and if they fought at middle, Griff would patiently outbox and out class his man...all day and night until the cows came home.
