Could Wilfredo Benitez beat Tito Trinidad? I think so.

    I have read he was and Asian Sensation said that it was true he was midly ******ed. He never spoke English to my recollection. I know he had to turn down that contract because of the language barrier.

He fought bums with the exception of a close fight he got with Bhop and the win over Toney. Then he met Tarver and was the victim of one of the most brutal KO's in boxing
      i dont like overrated guys.. thats all, but what im saying its true..... youre not making any arguments or anything, tell me why im wrong and ill accept trinidads greatness...what the ****?, does being mexican diminsh my opininion????? i like fighters not countries, besides oscar is american.....

      my favourite fighters are mostly american....

      Now I know youre reaching with your comments about RJJr, saying it was a close fight with Hopkins...

      dont make me compare trinidad and rj.............

      that is all....

        I think you are right about the Language thing, though I have heard the midly ******ed thing numerous times. It is doubtful he never knew English living in New York for most of his young life. Not impossible, but not very likely to have been the case.

          Yeah, I gotta check my dvds this weekend and update you if he did or not. The mental disability is something new. I mean, I know he has it now, but never knew about it in his fighting days.

            Ive seen you post before about the Dlhya and Oscar fight wit u defending Oscar. By the way Im just makin a point because if you consider Trinidad's accomplishments "overrated" but you praise RJJ how can you not be bias? Trinidad has fought everyone and anyone the same can't be said about your boy. You should ask yourself who did Trinidad ever avoid fighting and who did Roy ever avoid..............that is all

              Ok you dont like overrated guys but your avatar displays one of the most overrated boxers in the history of boxing. And RJJ fought a completely different BHOP than Tito, not to mention Tito was a prime WW not Middle.

                Benitez's style was just terrible for Tito.

                    Mosley was not a welterweight during that time. No he didnt fight Whitaker 'before being in and out of coke' but who's fault was that? I'll give you Quartey, but someone earlier posted that Quartey priced himself out of those fights, so I'll defer to that reasoning.

                      Mosley was a lightweight when tito was fighting at 147. By the time tito lost to b-hop, mosley was busy getting his ass kicked by vernon forrest.
