    Jacobs and Taylor are eerily similar in those regards.:thumbsup

    Trinidad was facing one of the greatest middleweights of all-time though, and another excellent fighter in Winky Wright.

    He was best suited for 154 at the time (he long had issues making 147), so it's not a huge size difference.

    Joppy wasn't anything special, but Trinidad could still hit at 160. Hopkins praised Tito's power afterwards in some article (either KO, The Ring, or World Boxing, forgot which one) and said one left hook in the 10th bruised his chin and he really felt that punch.

    Taylor just got hit too much. Even with the size advantage, I think he gets stopped by Trinidad.
