Who has more power, and who would have won between Trinidad and Hearns?

[Hallaqsillaq]

Duran had the greatest defense I've ever seen, on the inside. Best believe that Tito's power will be reduced in half, Duran would be too slippery and would turn with Tito's punches. In all honesty, Duran would be happy to go in against Tito.

I know dude, Duran was one tough mofo and slippery as heck, he gave Marvin Hagler fits!

But still, if he got clocked coming in, or if he took one of those breaks on the ropes (like Hearns timed him) he might just get caught and clocked.

I don't see Hearns winning always against a prime Tito, Tito was relentless against guys similar in size and fearless, we aren't talking a 170 lb Hop in there...

That's cause SRL's boxing skills >>> Tito's boxing skills. Tito moved forward and shifted his entire weight while he threw his left hook, making himself unbalanced and opening himself to counters and risking getting knocked down.

While having one of the best head movements you have seen.

I do agree at times he was unbalance.

Eh...Tito doesn't have SRL's foot speed or hand speed, difference here man.

You're both right, I didn't think about that all the way. Those shots SRL landed on him got there for a reason, and that was his superior footwork and skills. Even then, it took him 14 rounds to get him out of there, and he was losing most of the fight. If Hearns could outbox SRL he most def would've given Tito a lesson.

All it will take is for Hearns to land one right hand...

I'd say out of ten, Tito could win 4 against Hearns.

With Duran, its mostly 50/50 and UD losses.

I'm not saying Tito would dominate these guys, but losing always? GTFO.

All it will take is for Trinidad to land one left hook or even a right hand.

Duran had trouble making weight despite his size. I even heard he donated blood, Duran wasn't healthy. Thing is, Hearns had quick feet and controlled distance; don't think Tito could do it like that.

Well, the topic isn't out of 10 or 100 fights or whatever, it's one fight. Hearns would win because he had better boxing skills than Tito, plus that amazing length and power. If there were rematches maybe Tito could adjust, but Hearns has more advantages.

[Toney Loc]

wow nothing. Younger Tito COULD box decently enough if he wanted to.

All I'm seeing is the typical old school boxers are GODS and unbeatable by contemporary boxers bull****.

Tito's could lose to both, but he could also beat both on a good day. To say they are untouchable and on another level is a crock of ****.

That's like saying Oscar, Mosley, Tito (90's fighters) couldn't possibly beat or win against the 80's crop of elites. BS, on any given night, either could win.

I don't put old school boxers on pedestals either. As a matter of fact I hate that ****. What's even worse is a person choosing a winner because of his flag.

Plus, were talking PRIME Tito, check the opening post. Tito fell in love with his power and got a little too much "left-hook" happy as his career progressed.

You may be right, Hearns would outbox him. I'm pretty sure Tito could goad him into a brawl though and I like Tito's chances in the brawl.
