    PBF does not have the Oscar jab. If that was the case how come Floyd could not do that to slow ass Baldomir? You have not accounted for that.

    Floyd by UD only chance for Tito would be a big punch that would hurt Floyd. Tito hits harder than any guy at 147 at the moment way harder than Pac!!!

    PBF doesn't need power to keep Tito off. Walking him down and pushing him into the ropes? PBF and team always with a very good game plan for every different type of fighter. I would say PBF via decision. It is not easy catching PBF with flush power. If you do like Mosley did, you have to jump on him and finish him or he will go to plan be and just outbox and out maneuver you. I know it is not a good example due to Mosley being shot already. We have yet to see PBF get hit like that at WW except for Mosley.

    I agree with outlook on how this fight could go.

    I don't agree with anyone who boxed him made him look ordinary. Oba Carr, David Reid and Joppy all boxed him and got walked down. It was only Middleweight HOps and Wink who made him look ordinary.

    I don't know what Badomir has to do with this or why you keep bringing him up :huh i'm pointing out that when people used their boxing craft on Tito his limitations were exposed as seen in his fights with Oscar and Hopkins and later on Wright. Now taking this into account there's no reason to assume Mayweather would not have to skills to beat Tito and IMO prime for prime I think Mayweather would pot shot and move with his superior speed frustrating Trinidad all night long and win a UD.

    Does Jr take this fight ? No ! In the BS world were Jr takes on all comers, The first time Jr fouls Tito by stick his elbow in his face BAM . A patented Tito low blow has Jr spit his tiny little Testicles out on the floor.

    B/c Baldomir is still the only fighter that Floyd has fought that started his career at 147. You know there is a reason Floyd retired the ffirst time around. Floyd didn't at the time and still has not proved that he has the fire power to keep a 6 foot tall WW off him. The Baldomir fight fight is proof of it. Floyd is more skilled then current super middleweights but that does not mean his skill can over come there size plus own skill.

    If Trinidad did like Mosley did, which is more possible considering he was taller, bigger, longer, and in his prime, Floyd ain't getting up.:dead

    Every one of those guys had middlweight or higher straps. Everyone of those guys are 5'10 or taller. Oscar is the smallest out of all of them and he was considered a big welter. Floyd is simply too small for Tito. Trinidad ain't Corrales.

    :deal Calling tito ordinary is a HUGE disservice to him. Ordinary fighters do not do what he's done or beat who he'd beaten.

    I'd pick Trinidad to beat today's Mayweather.

    The Floyd of four-five years ago would be interesting. My guess is that Floyd wins a very tight decision

    Floyd would out box Tito. I'm a huge Tito fan but unless Tito catches Floyd with something big, Floyd will out box him. Floyd would probably have to get on his bike though.
