Prime Mayweather vs Prime Trinidad at 147

[Fox McCloud]

it's not movement as much as don't let tito get set.

whether by movement , jab or both.

floyd at 147 likes to stand in one spot and defend and popshot......not good against tito.

When has Mayweather stood still in his recent bouts?

Even when he was killing Hatton in the later rounds, he was still moving for the most part, except when he decided to sit down on a combo, but then he would move out again.

It's been since Gatti and Corley that he has stood in one spot and fought.

I agree with you that Floyd would outclass Tito all night long. Let's be real look at what Oscar did to Tito, he set the blue print to beat Tito. Everyone should remember that Floyd does not get tired like Oscar does.

Oscar is as big as Tito, with the same reach and good power, plus he had to run a marathon for the lat 4 rounds to survive. Floyd is 3 inches shorter have a 3 inches rich disadvantage, plus above 135 he is feather fisted, plus the fact that Tito had very good boxing skills, is not like tito is Margarito, who only had one way to fight. Floyd doesnt have the power to keep Tito off!!!!!!!!!!

The point is that he wont be able to circle around tito and potshot like he did against Oscar,Hatton and Judah, he doesnt have the power to keep tito at bay. he will have to pretty much run a marathon to survive!!!!!!!!

he does it all the time.

floyd doesn't dance all the time though he can with his footwork.

sometimes he likes to lay on the rope and counter. sometimes he stands in the middle of the ring flatfooted and make the other guy miss while he counters.

I honestly can't recall him doing anything but moving recently (other than Judah, when he was forced to come forward to make Judah uncomfortable).

The last time he really laid on the ropes and countered was against Castillo I, which didn't work well at all.

The last time he stood in the middle of the ring and just fought was Gatti if I remember correctly. He moved a bunch against Mitchell, Judah, Baldomir, De La Hoya and Hatton.

I haven't seen the fights in a while though, so... I may be remembering things incorrectly.

i hear you. maybe i remember him doing it more often because generally those are the memorable exchanges in his fights.

i'm not saying he just stands there of course. just saying people say he's a runner and all that but he doesn't do it 100% of the time.

floyd does stand his ground. maybe he won't against someone as strong as tito though. who knows? it's all hypothetical.

plus floyd is so confident in his defense that sometimes when he gets cornered he doesn't really try that hard to get out or off the ropes.

For the people who've said "Mayweather doesn't have the power to keep Tito off of him" Well, Mayweather didn't have the power to keep Baldy off, Pernell didn't have the power to keep JCC off...You can't indicate a winner base on that

Tito has never done good against a boxer.

DLH for example
Winky for example
B-Hop for example

and if he ever faced Mayweather...it'd be just another example

those are big guys , dom.

Check this out...Winky ain't a power puncher. We all saw how easily DLH outboxed Tito. If I'm not mistaken, Mayweather has a reach advantage over DLH

Mayweather doesn't fold when the pressure is on...and if Tito couldn't land a thing against B-Hop when B-Hop was against the ropes

THEN how will he land against Mayweather who is better defensively when pinned against the ropes?

Thinking Tito would win a U.D is ridicoulos...A K.O is always possible

Trinidad is nothing like Baldomir and JCC those guys fight face first and dont have the punching power of Trinidad or the Boxing skills. Trinidad is also a very big WW.

Tito at WW is a different proposition to the one that fought Winky,Hopkins.

Trinidad has beaten boxers>Camacho,Whitaker,Reid,Vargas, Pendleton,Carr.
