      I'm predicting Tony to beat Cotto but in some strange way I'm hoping Cotto pulls it out because Trinidad won't beat Oscar up like Cotto will! I just wanna see Oscar get KTFO!

        Trinidad wins via knockout.

        Hear me out, hear me out.

        Tito showed he still has strength (just not stronger than the bigger Roy Jones) and Trinidad only fights one way. Oscar on the other hand has been very flat-footed as of late and probably hasn't been a "moving, bouncing" fighter since....hell, maybe the Vargas fight? He even stood right in front of B-Hop.

        Trinidad is probably the physically stronger of the two and in a true shoot-out Felix has never lost.

        So yeah, Felix via TKO. Styles baby, styles!

          Trinidad wins easier this time

          The question is not who draws the most fans. They both are huge draws, and it would be impossible for each to draw exactly the same numbers. This acknowledged, a 50/50 split is fair.

          In my opinion Trinidad CAN get down to 160, but is too lazy to try, since he's already done more than any fighter needs to do, to achieve lasting fame. But, if he does, and they actually fight, I see Trinidad winning again, but easier this time. The first fight was won by him changing his fight plan from the middlerounds on, and concentrating on a heavy body attack. Against jones, we saw that Trinidad's body punching is now second nature and comes easily to him. Oscar would wilt quickly under that kind of attack, unless hran. And if he runs, he won't win anyway.

              This is a fight I'm just not interested in. The best fight for De La Hoya in every sense is Miguel Cotto.

                If this fight is gonna happen it will only be If Cotto losses. Which he wont!
                Margie while a good fighter is no draw. He has very little apeal to the masses.

                Trinidad is still a big draw and the fight woulf do big enough #'s I just cant see
                DLH fighting at 165 or Trinidad getting down to make that weight!

                    THE FIGHTER THAT SHOULD BE "EMBARRASED" IS DELAHOEY WHO LOST TO A FIGHTER HALF HIS WEIGHT
