    tito was a slow starter always finshed strong.most of the time.and anyone who doesn't think tito wouldn't have ko margarito just lol.trust tito could crack middleweights he could crack anybody he could hit.period.

      True. And he was never the same again. He took a tremendous amount of punishment.

          tito had one of the best left hooks i ever saw a WW throw. but i dont see marg getting KO'd. probably a dcision after marg takes alot of punishment. possibly stopped on cuts or perhaps a knockdown

            300+ punches from Trinidad is a lot different than 300+ punches from Cotto. Cotto hit Margarito with everything he had, he just wasn't a big enough hitter to get the job done.

            Trinidad on the other hand, well, hit about as hard as anyone throughout Welterweight and Junior Middleweight history. Margarito may make it to the final bell, but he'd lose the fight.

              cotto's a better boxer than vargas, and we know what happened there! boxer or not marg is a tough oppt, and tito would most likely not get him out before the final bell.

                i think the better question is could trinidad withstand the infalible pressure of margarito?

                  I don't know who could go a whole fight taking clean shots from Trinidad, especially someone who gets hit like Margarito.

                    Margarito's chin is there to be hit all night, and Tito is one of the best headhunters in his prime.

                    That granite chin is bound to crack when you trade with Tito and leave yourself open for 12 rounds.

                      i dont think Trinidad would Ko him either

                      Trinidad has a great chance to KO Marg if Marg stands off and lets him get the extension on his shots and get his weight onto his front foot where all his power is

                      but Marg aint gonna allow that he will be on Trinidads toes forcing him to Box and move sticking him on his heels where his power is slightly nullified

                      people should not underestimate the position you claim in the ring to win a fight ive watched loads of fights and more often than not that is always the deciding factor of who wins the fight

                      back Margarito up and you will beat him with ease let him come foward and your job is 10 times harder not to say he cant be beat when he is coming foward but you take my point that is where he is more effective as apose to when he is backed up

                      Pavlik made his job much more easier cause he backed Miranda up and gave him no leaverage had he not done this his job may have been twice as hard not to say he would not have still won but he would of found it much more difficult
