    @ 154 lbs. Just curious what every ones thoughts are. I have Trinidad coming off the canvas and winning by late round stoppage.
    Who wins and how?

    Tough tough fight to pick for me..I see Trinidad maybe, just maybe edging it. Alvarez is tough as **** with great skills, I could actually see him catching Tito with something that changes the fight though..Great match up

    I would give the edge to Canelo in this. I believe canelo has a rock chin and better over all skills. Just my opinion but I've always found Trinidad to be largely one dimensional.

    I've never been a big fan of Trinidad. Canelo puts him to sleep.

    Trinidad would win this. I think sometimes people want to forget how great Tito was.

    Trinidad gets off the deck early, and stops a tiring Canelo late.

    Canelo's durability against Tito's talent. Trinidad was the superior fighter, hands down, in my opinion. Canelo is slippery, though. Hard to hit cleanly. I would still take Tito, by late stoppage or points.

    Tito hit the canvas every fight and because of that I think people underestimate his defense. Slug fest with Tito coming out with the victory.

    LOL Tito's power has reached mythological levels.




    Prior to Canelo/GGG I would have given the slight edge to Tito but not anymore. Canelo would have convincingly outboxed Trinidad and maybe even have stopped him.

    Canelo UD.

    Canelo has too many dimensions to his game for Tito who was straight up and down, moved in straight lines and was as one dimensional as I've ever seen for an elite fighter.

    Tito has the equaliser with his power but Canelo's defensive work is one of the best in the business.

    I'll take Tito at 154, but Canelo will give him some trouble along the way. I just don't think Canelo will be able to neutralize Trinidad's offense as effectively as Hopkins or Winky, plus those fights were north of 154. Trinidad UD, with scores along the lines of 116-112/115-113.
