    If they met @ 147.

    Saw this posted on facebook on a group and thought it's a pretty interesting match up.

    Get talking :good.

    Mayweather on points, de la Hoya outboxed Tito for long periods and dictated with his jab, floyd would do the same but better, mayweather would win quite wide on points IMO, the 24/7 series would be brilliant

    Mayweather would handle tito without a problem. Could see a 118-110 scorecard with Tito stalking mayweather and getting picked off repeatedly, top fighter Tito but an awful match up for him

    His feet always look shaky bro.......good times and bad.


    He just never seems/seemed settled to me.

    Yeah i hear you breddah. Even when he tried to switch up the angles he could do it sweetly at times but other times look like a colt.

    I do like some of his movements but it also created issues such as squaring him up if he didn't execute well etc so i agree totally with you. I think his left hook to head and body cause Floyd problems but Tito stood a little to tall and wide hands and Floyd exploits that well with his straight shots.

    Floyd. He would be wary of his size and power but Tito's movement is too robotic and stiff for Floyd to not find his timing and reduce the chance of risky moments, en route to a very clear UD.

    If Floyd was fighting him he would be on 24/7 saying "he's flat-footed, he's straight up and down".

    I've always thought Trinidad was incredibly overrated. His physical dimensions may have caused Floyd some problems though and when you think about his left hook, he may have been able to land it without getting entangled in Floyd's web.
