    Trinidad isn't especially hard to drop, but usually he isn't hurt. They were usually flash KDs, often caused by Trinidad's footwork and balance.

    The only fights other than Hopkins (a long fight against a middleweight) that he was hurt when he went down were Cortes and Vargas.

    Tito has problems with speed. tito had very slow and poor footwork, when fighters made him change directions and reset they beat him.

    I think that Shane would have knocked tito out. I never thought that Tito was that good so maybe i cant really be fair here. I just thought that he was to slow. If you put a guy in there that wasnt going to make him change directions he would beat them. If you let Tito walk you down he would beat you.

    Yeah, thats exactly what Tito was. Footwork was poor & slow. But I think this would go to the cards & be a S/D for any man.

    Tito is big, strong and powerful. But if he had troubles with the speed of ODLH, then he would have his hands full with SSM.

    SSM also has a chin to match. And despite being just under 5'9", SSM has a long reach.


    I believe in this match-up niether man is capable of a KO, but the speed will be the key for Shane here.

    in welterweight? trinidad will knock him out
    mosley, even though he is a speedster, is always prone to getting into brawls and is not much mobile at ww. he is also smaller. tito will take him out

    tito, on the other hand, is too much to handle at ww.. i know he has a tendency to be outboxed like what dlh did but it would be a different case against mosley whose defensive skills is quite good but not exceptional

    Tito KO7

    Trindad late stoppage Mosley loves to go to war and that would be his downfall against Tito.

    And he has shown great recovery Tito is very durable people like Louis and Moore were not hard to drop but they were very hard to stop the same is the case with Tito.

    that speaks for his heart and will not for his chin, and Mosley has an outstanding chin

    Mosley hits hurt enough and is fast enough to hurt him.....Trinidad has alot more power then Mosley but, btwn. Mosleys speed and chin, it'll be all but useless
