    Margarito matches up horribly with Tito IMO. Margarito's strenghts are size and strength and Tito at WW was just as strong and big as Margarito is. I see fight being similar to the Mayorga-Tito fight.

    Remember Tito only got stopped by a Middleweight.
    Not to be a heel but any prediction saying that Margarito gets koed at 147 is absolutely unfounded. Let's see first if Cotto can get him hurt and Cotto is just as an accurate puncher as Tito used to be.

    Oh yeah, even if they fight right now at 154 , Tito vs Margarito, Margarito will demolish him. Tito has deteriorated so bad and it's not cause of the punishment he's taken either.

      Clottey shook him with a right hand. I hear Santos did too.

      Tito's left hook is too quick. He's too precise, he throws the combinations Cintron wasn't capable of throwing.

        Trinidad is one the hardest P4P Punchers of all time...I think everyone knows this by now, specially at 147 he could turn a fight around with one clean punch, specially his left hook.

          Ok there is consensus so I am gonna agree with you guys and say that Tito's left hook carries more power than Cintron's right hand, and it's foolish to assume he knocks out Margarito. Can Tito fight backwards?

            He wont have to as much because there's no way Margarito walks Tito down all fight while he takes clean power punches.

                How do you land clean power punches when you're going backwards? Can Tito fight going backwards?

                  Margarito gets stopped on his feet.

                    How about a more proper question. Who wins if they fight now? Cause the ancient Tito is no longer here.

                      Re-read the OT it says PRIME Tito not current Tito. Why is predicting one of the most powerful WW's to win via KO unfounded ? Margarito has a good chin but he gets hit a lot. Tito hits harder than anyone Margarito has ever fought.

                      Again you refute non of my points or make counter points.......Good Job . Like I said before a prime WW Tito was as big and strong as Margarito. Had faster hands, sharper-tighter punches and way more 2 handed power, better defense and the better boxer.
