    To beat Mayweather he would have to act like Maidana. Tito's punching too predictable.

    To beat Tito, Floyd would have to be bigger and stronger for success like Oscar, Winky and Hopkins were. Floyd brittle hands and low output...not good. ;)

    Good enough to beat Oscar by a good margin. I had it 8-4 for FMJ.

    We're talking prime for prime, and Oscar wasn't exactly prime in that fight.

    Prime Pacquiao beats him. Trinidad feet and punch is too slow for prime Pacquiao.

    If Pacquiao thinks he's lucky he "survived the Margarito fight" as JOKER claims Pacquiao once said, he would for sure be carried out in a stretcher against Tito.

    The ONLY way to survive against Tito was to neutralize his power with defense like DLH, Hopkins, and Winky did. Even Margarito was able to lay hands on Pacquiao. Tito was much more accurate, had much better timing, more power, and threw shorter punches than Margarito.

    Only fighters with really good jabs, and good defense could beat a prime Tito.

    A fighter like Pacquiao is tailored made for someone like Tito.

    No one had better timing than Tito. Tito times Pacquiao like Marquez, Torrecampo, Singsurat did, and puts him to sleep longer than Marquez did.

    According to Brother Nazim, who spotted the incorrect wrapping technique, those wraps would not have been illegal in Nevada where the Reid and Vargas fights took place.

    Tito. Imagine the wars Pac had with Cotto and Margarito, but instead with Tito. Pac would do well in the early rounds and may even drop Tito, but Tito would get Pac's timing down and put a whole world of hurt that Cotto and Marg couldn't do.

    Pac still greater p4p though.

    The only time Pacquiao really got caught against Margarito is when he entangled himself on the ropes.

    Prime Pacquiao beats Tito. Tito feet and punches are just too slow for Pacquiao.
