Manny Pacquiao (of today) vs Felix Trinidad (of 2004) who wins?

the interesting question is.. would we even be debating this two or three years ago?

 

I do agree that Pacquiao's style is difficult for a fighter like Trinidad. However, it is comical how a lot of people think that Pacquiao's awkward style and in and out movement is considered having a great defense and make out Pac to be some sort of unhittable fighter. Marquez landed at will, Cotto landed some shots, Clottey landed whenever he let his hands go and so on.

Cotto tore up Pacquiao's face and had him against the ropes a few times. Tito isn't Cotto and definitely isnt Clottey - once he has you in the ropes he won't let you out.


EDIT: 2004 Trinidad? I'll definitely pick Pacquiao over that version of Trinidad. At WW and during the 90's, I'd be a bit hesitant but pick Trinidad anyways.

 

tito of 2004 was far from prime so i think pac has a chance. a prime tito destroys pac!

 

im surprised pac now wins on fantasy matchups.

prime trinidad KOs prime pacquiao at 147. period. prime Pac's best could be at 140.

 

If Cotto busted pacs eardrum...i could only imagine what a devastating puncher like Tito would do to Pac...

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl Pac stopped cotto in the 12th, Tito is a far superior fighter but Pac is stopping Tito sooner?

 

Trinidad, as the cliche goes ...... "To BIG, To strong"
(In this case its true)

 

Who said Pac is stopping Tito sooner?

atsch Fail.
