    Another thing! You said "Mayweather don't have the power to keep Tito off him" Whitaker who has LESS power then Mayweather

    Who would win between a prime Whitaker and Tito

      There is one thing I must point out here. Oscar was an inch away from beating Floyd a couple years ago. That was not a prime Oscar. A prime Tito at 147 would present hella more problems that Oscar presented to Floyd the night they fought. Floyd fought safety first and scared. And Oscar wasn't even bringing it to Floyd. Tito woulda brought it. Floyd might just make it to the final bell, cuz Floyd is brilliant defensively, but he'd take a whooping while doing it.

      I'm not sure if Floyd can play defense that hard for 12 rounds with Tito. It might look like Margarito vs Cotto, except, Floyd's output wouldn't be quite what Cotto's was and Tito's offense would be a step up of what Margarito's was, you figure it out.

        floyd never fights any fighter the same. floyd's style vs baldomir was completely different from the approach he took with hoya.

        tito would have a much better chance at 154 instead of 147. oscar at 147 would get brutalized by floyd just too quick.

          How so? A prime Oscar at 147 would give Floyd hell. Floyd barely beat an old Oscar that just got stomped on by a featherweight.

            50/50 chance for either guy, but Im leaning a bit towards Whitaker, because he was hell of slick and had alot of speed and ring generalships. In the other hand tito had the size and the power advantage, plus speed wise he was right about there with whitaker, but not quite. Size plays a huge roll here!!!!!!!

              Mayweather UD. Easy fight. Oscar outboxed Tito like it was nothing and Hopkins did as well

                What weight did Oscar fight Mayweather at?? How is Pacman a FW, when he weighs 147 at bloody LW.

                    How was Oscar shot when Mayweather fought him at 154?? Are you saying Pacman beat a shot weight drained Oscar, fair enough.

                    Don't compare Mayweather to Oscar. Oscar failed when it mattered

                      There is absolutely no comparison between the opposition that Oscar and Floyd faced, I agree completely. It's easy to remain undefeated when you pick and choose fighters. Like at 140, Tszyu, Cotto or Gatti. Wonder which one Floyd picked? At 147, Baldomir or Margarito? Hmmmm.... At 154, a guy with one fight in over 2 1/2 years ........ Notice a pattern here? Never compare Oscar and Floyd, you're right.
