    Mosley has never been KO'd, despite having faced bigger punchers. Trinidad has been.

    Winky and Vernon are big rangy boxers, there style totally contrasts Trinidad at welter who was more of a come forward slugger with elements of fundamental boxing sparsely sprinkled in. Mosley has KO'd every come forward fighter he has faced.

    Including Adrian Stone, in 3 rounds. So...:huh

    I think Mosley. He could fight intelligently and with a certain amount of caution if the occasion called for it. If he could put in a performance like the one from the first DLH fight he would win.

    I think Mosley is too willing to fight a toe-to-toe type battle to beat a prime Trinidad at WW who was more dimensional and complete than he showed later in his career. Trinidad by UD, probably knocking Mosley down along the way, but I don’t rule out the possibility of a stoppage by Tito due to his power and Mosley’s leaky defense and questionable footwork.

    A completely different style matchup IMO than the DLH fights for SSM.

    at 147 Mosely throws the combinations hard enough to hurt Trinidad enough to back him off or possibly stop him.

    Have you guys not seen Trinidad fight at welter? Trinidad by brutal KO!
    Forrest Hurt Mosley, no welter in recent years has the power of Trinidad.
    only one to beat him at welter was DLH, but DLH has the reach and one hell of a Jab.
    other than that Bernard and Jones beat him, no shame in that.
    But dont make it seem like he couldnt box.
    Oba carr was a good boxer dropped Tito early, and got brutally beaten after that.
    Where ever tito hit you he hurt you, the man had insane power at welter.
    like i said before even a coked up Whitaker is much harder to hit then anyone i can remember.
    Let floyd stand in the pocket, with that sholder roll bs, his shoulders would be ****ed up by the 6th round.
    What ever trinidad hit he would **** up!!!!!! Please dont underate this Great Champion

    sorry it was a lazy post...i meant he boxed better at ww than at middleweight..he seemed to fall in love with his power and become more of a pressure fighter...he moved better at ww and was big also...i think hes a great ww.

    Mosley defense is too bad for trinidad. Vernon Forest exposed Shane. Trinidad with no doubt would ko him.

    The weight wont make that big of a deal...Tito was fine making the weight in 98 when I felt he was at his best at 47....I juss think each man would impose his fight game for half the fight..114-114

    I think at 147 shane is a lot faster and You know hed catch Tito. I think he has the ability to finish him too.I dont think Shane would get to macho with Tito,if he fights smart and uses his superior speed hed end up stopping Trinidad at 147.Oba Carr did good early against Trinidad,and I think Mosley would do the same but he hit harder was stronger,had abetter chin, was kinda of similar to Carr but did everything better,but mosley have to be smart if he went in just trying to stop Trinidad he just might be the one gettting knocked out.

    Tito had power as well at 47....Tito's left hook was utterl ridiculous...Tito had trouble at 160 with speed but at 47 he beat a past prime Pernell...Pernell was still faster than MOST fighters that were at 47 at the time too...Tito had decent timing and any man who keeps that right foot like Tito does has a very good chance of catching the other fighter as well..Mosley would have to be cautious and if he traded with Tito like he did with Oscar Tito is the bigger hooker and Mosley swings wide when he exchanges...I still got the fight a draw..Juss cant see either fighter imposing their fight for more than 6 rounds
