    the fight would be really good.

    but i think pac stops trinidad since trinidads never faced anyone as quick as pac.

    He was a more than decent middle too, IMO. Hopkins and Wright were just horrible for him style wise.

    Great vid thanks I like Tito. I even made him on FNR4 and on my legacy mode with Hopkins, Tito is on something like a 13 ko win streak and he even ko'd Pavlik in the 3rd or 4th:silly. Just goes to show you I can create him on a videogame and he still is a beast.

    !!!!!!GO TITO!!!!!!

    I don't get it.Felix was a very good fighter don't get me wrong ,but he was also limited and very vulnerable to movers with good handspeed.
    Pac vs Tito at 147= Pac by clear UD

    Another weakness of Trinidad's was that he couldn't fight going back. But personally I think Pac's lack of defense would fail him though that would be an explosive fight no matter who would win. Tito ko6.

    Not on paper.

    He clearly lost by UD against Oscar.
    While i am a big fan of Tito i think there is a quality difference between him and Pac.This would have been a fight between a very good vs great fighter.
    Pac dominated Cotto and Clottey at 147.
    Tito defeated Whitaker impressively however Pernell was way past his prime.
    He lost against Oscar and never fought Quartey.(Not saying he ducked him,it was clearly politics and tito would have fought everyone!!!)
    Tito never beat a great fighter in his prime at 147 and i think he is a bit overrated.
    Pac's defence may not be perfect but he has the chin to take Tito's shots and stalk him into the 2nd half of the fight and stop him by bodyshots.
    Pac by ud or late stoppage.

    Trinidad is a good fighter, but I am not really impressed by him. He is one dimensional and have poor footwork. I favor Pacquiao over him at 147.

    See, this is where most people like you make that mistake:

    Trying to apply logic when it comes to Manny Pacquiao.

    Oh well. Some people will never learn.

    Pacquiao is a better fighter than Tito but he's not a better welterweight.

    It's been repeated so often that it's almost become fact - "Tito had trouble with quick boxers/boxers who moved". Like who? Oscar? Who else? De le Hoya gave him trouble with his movement but Hopkins and Wright hardly used blinding foot-speed to out-fox Tito. They were bigger, better boxers who were a bad style for him.

    Tito couldn't fight as well going back but is Pacquiao going to force him into retreat? Tito ain't Cotto or Clottey. He's going to move forward undeterred all night and if Pac keeps coming forward he's going to get hit harder than he's ever been hit before.

    As for Pac stopping Tito? Hopkins was the only guy able to do that and even after taking a prolonged beating and a murderous right-cross, Tito beat the count before his dad stopped the fight. Paqcuiao isn't stopping him.

    Tito by ko.

    Nothing different here. Pacquiao always loses fantasy fights.

    one of the hardest punchers i have ever seen
    i know mayweather wouldnt dare sign to fight TITO
    but if he did, i would love for him to stand in the ropes with his bull sh*t defense
    where ever Titos punches landed, he would have hurt mayflower. I just done see Mayweather making it out on his feet, yes Tito was troubled by movers, but big movers. Mayflower would have been deflowered
