    Be getting tickled to a UD loss against Malignaggi.

    I think he would TKO both Mosley and Margarito too.

    I think he would beat everyone at the minute other than Mayweather. I think he would struggle with Manny and Martinez but stop them both.

    Tito is too flat footed for Mayweather/Pacquiao

    Easy UD for Mayweather/Pacquiao

    He'd do bad against Pacquiao since he's too left hand dependent and aggressive.

    I think he beats everyone but Mayweather, and at least possibly Mayweather, though I favor Mayweather.

    If Tito could regain his timing he could handle Malignaggi. Tito once beat the great Pernell Whitaker by decision. Paulie doesn't have Winky Wright's same piercing jab to keep Tito at bay.

    Tito won't have any legs but he relied more on his boxing early in his career. Tito would be a handful for anyone in the division today. Power is always the last thing to go and that was always something he had in spades.

    Pacquiao, Mosely and Mayweather are the only ones I see that would be able to handle him.

    Too bad Mosley and Tito didn't fight 4 real back when it was plausible. My pick always changes on that one.

    He would hammer Mosley and everyone else outside of Floyd and Pacquiao. I'd narrowly favour both to beat him (though many will disagree, especially about Pacquiao, but i feel he has the ability to fight smarter against a truly legit puncher, irradiating some of the carelessness from his game). He could potentially stop both as well though, but i see too much mobility in Pacquiao, and Mayweather would return to a more mobile version of himself, pot shotting and using his general ring savy.

    Tito-Martinez would be a great matchup, i'd back Martinez to edge out a decision. Tito would polleaxe Williams though.

    I don't care much for Tito though, some mexi-lover will probably come in here and tear me a new one.

    Probably not as he was a Rican ;)

    But I agree with most of that, except that I feel Tito would beat Martinez...either in a similar fashion to Vargas or Reid.

    Meaning he would have to overcome an earlier deficit to either stop him or bash Serg enough to get the points verdict.

    The Manny fight is 50-50 for me...He is just still to hittable and taking the odd punch from Cotto or Margs aint the same as walking on to a Tito bomb..I think Tito will be landing in a more consistent and educated manner aswell.

    And I think Tito could get a decision over Mayweather if he got a Don King handicap like he did against Hoya..But if all things are fair, Floyd should eek that one out.

    In an all Rican battle royale Tito sends poor Cotto to an early retirement.
