    It seems to me that Trinidad advanges such as arm reach, power punch height and boxing techniques would be too much for PBF. What do you think ?

    Tito by UD. Tito @ 147 was much different fighter @ WW then when he moved up.

    Shouldve known we would have PBF boxes cirlces around him. PBF isnt like the guys who beat Tito he isnt phyiscally strong enough to keep Tito off his ass. Tito beats up the same way he did Reid.

    Trinidad.

    Mayweather isn't a big guy like Wright or Hopkins and he doesn't have the power of De La Hoya. He's physically much smaller and since his jump up to welterweight, his movement has decreased. He's backs up into the ropes more than ever where he picks his spots for sneaky counterpunches. That's not a good position to be in when facing Trinidad, who had concussive power, threw great combinations to the body and the head, and was very accurate. I see Trinidad getting outboxed in some portions, but generally doing more damage by imposing himself behind his jab.

    Trinidad.

    But, I forgot, if PBF beats Leonard, Hearns, Duran, Hagler, than probably Trinidad as well. :huh

    Tito would take the UD victory. PBF would just avoid engaging Felix, run and call it smart boxing. Floyd would never take the fight against a prime tito at 147.

    Dude Trinidad would hurt lil o' Floyd. And I'm not underrating Floyd...I'm just not underrating Tito. Trinidad was actually a fairly decent counter puncher when he fought smaller men. He didn't have to chase guys down at 147lbs because he could use his height and reach to force the little guys to come to him. In all honesty I can only see Floyd throwing 1 punch at a time on Trinidad, for if he ever opened up with 3-4 punches at a time he'd get countered by a lethal punch. Theres is no way Floyd could survive if he was ever chin checked, and if he fought Tito like he fought Baldomir throwing a punch or two at a time, even then it wouldn't be enough to outpoint a tall Tito with unending stamina.

    Tito by far.. This fight would be like cat and mouse.. Seems to me that PBF is supposedly the best WW at the moment, but when compared to these other past elite WW's, he barely stands a chance.. Hrmm..

    Tito fought at superwelter and middle for most of his career. Floyd fought the majority of his career below 147. Duh duh get it numbnuts?

    Let me ask you, what does Floyd being the best welter now have to do with the best welters 10 years ago? Btw, he beats Oscar at welter and he beats Shane at welter.

    Tito was a WW for 10 years. Before you call people numbnuts, do some research.:roll:
