I wouldn't imagine he'd be top 100...hard to say exactly though without really doing some work on it. He's sure not top 50.
De La Hoya should be higher than Trinidad based on his accomplishments in more weight classes, never getting truly dominated, and greater overall resume. Mosley doesn't have Trinidad's resume and his list of wins isn't quite as deep, thus I think he should fall somewhere in the top 125.
Dominant in his prime, not so good later on, he's top 100, not top 75. He was great though when he was great, a joy to watch, and that power was something else... almost like watching Roy Jones these days (which is funny that they fought) it's almost like there recent fights have faded how great they were in a lot of peoples minds, which is a shame.. but history will be kind to both Roy and Tito I'd think...
Yes he is , he just lost to bigger boxers Hopkins & Winky at 160 and RJJ at 170. You guys dont seem to remenber hes a natural WW , where he stay undefeated , he just went for bigger chanllenges and came short. got to give the man credit for being hungry and risk hes record to conquer better things. For Example imagine Paul Williams fighting at 170 lbs what do you think? will he lose?
Hell yeah. He only lost to (3) HOFs who were all naturally bigger with two of them (Hopkins and RJJ) being top 50 p4p all-time.
Hopkins? Not a chance in hell. I don't even rank Jones in the top 20, and he's my 2nd favorite fighter of all time.
Of course Trinidad is top 75 atg. I think he was the best WW of the 90s so I sure as hell wouldn't put any of the other 147-154 fighter higher than him at least from the 90s. If Tito wouldn't have had weight issues at 147lbs he would have beaten wave after wave of opponents. Tito was a fighter that aged VERY fast, He lost his prime very quickly and I blame going up in weight and retiring on that one. But Imagine if he could have stayed at 147lbs and perform for the better part of 2 decades there. He would have beaten opponent after opponent after opponent, and not just beaten, he would have brutalized them like he did countless of people. Tito at 147 in his prime was an absolute ****ing bad ass, His power was extremely natural and almost effortless and his stamina was the best thing I've ever seen in my life. Call him 1 dimensional all you want, The truth is That one Dimension would have beaten the majority at that weight.
