who could of beat Tito by slugging it out with him

Walker, Hearns (though Hearns has a good chance of getting KO'd himself) Ketchel's rated as a middleweight, but he had some of his best fights in the 154 pound range.

 

Rocky Graziano would be fighting someone his own size.

The question would be whose chin is weaker because small nukes would
be blasting off each other's.

 

Armstrong would likely get stopped, just too small. Robinson would take him out after some rough moments, both boxing and brawling.

Jackson would IMO. Better technically with a tighter guard, and probably just as good a chin as Tito.

 

Tito's best punches were his hooks, which he'd catch Armstrong with often, and I don't see him taking them very well all night long. He'd simply be there too often for Tito to hit. I'd choose a few of the better punchers over Hank.

 

In a toe to toe slugfest Pipino Cuevas would catch Trinidad for an early knockout. Trinidad was prone to early knockdowns in his career. Against Cuevas he would not survive being badly hurt in the early going. Although Trinidad's chances are much better if he boxed... You did say slug it out.

 

Terry Norris comes to mind but im kinda wiggly on choosing him, so I say Julian Jackson.

 

a prime simon brown could hold up well

i think daniel santos, antonio margorito and miguel cotto would all have their chances in stopping tito. win or lose, i think santos and margorito would actually have fun.

 

Most of the real all-timers like Napoles and Basilio would beat him anyway they wanted.

 

Langford?

That one might be a little unfair.

 

Jackson for sure- Probably Hearns, but his advantage would be to box and create an opening (even though he can bang and has a good chance at that), Terry Norris has a puncher's chance, he definitely hits hard and fast enough to, Robinson was fast enough, I could never count out Leonard; I feel he hit hard enough and was fast enough offensively and defensively to hurt and then finish Tito.
The only ones I'm confident in is Jackson and Norris. Both were murderers.

 

im sorry i strayed from the topic as not fighters that would have beaten trinidad slugging it out but rather would have had a chance winning.


simon was a tough welter/jr middle weight who could hold his own in their with hard hitting guys like terry norris untill the last leg of his career. he could punch and he had a tough hide, i think he deserves a mention as one that has a chance.


magarito is one of the toughest welter/jr. middle brawlers in the past decade, he may not have the aura of fighters of the past, but i saw him getting hit by kermit cintron's best bombs and he still went right to the trenches. i think he would have his chance.

santos fires straight punches in trenches, his southpaw style may help to nullify trinidads hook, he also beat margorito. he could have a decent chance too for the upset.

i dident mean to degrate trinidad who is a awesome fighter and rivals hearns as the hardest hitting welterweight/jr middle in boxing history, but i think trinidad against brown, magorito or santos would have be very exiting fights if they went toe to toe.
