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

[tito yuca]

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

I agree, that's why I originally voted Tito by stoppage, even if I said I wasn't sure. What made me change my mind is realizing that Hearns does have better boxing skills than Tito, so it would be easier for him to land on Tito than for Tito to land on him. Even then, both have to respect each other's power, so it may be a cautious fight. If that were to be the case, I'd give Hearns the advantage, because of those skills and length I've talked about.

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.

I feel he forgot his fundamentals as well. Happens to many boxers with above average power.

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.

aren't you American?


If you are, you are making double standards too.

We are making a smart boxing discussion not plating flags.

I respect your opinion.

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.

If Tito somehow lures Hearns into a brawl, Lights Out for Hearns.

Take into account that Hearns faught 15 rounds, Hearns would be way more active in a 12 rounder. I really don't see Tito landing the left hook. Hearns would also outbox the **** out of Mayweather; no shame in that. Hearns was a great fighter.

In a way I can't disagree.


But Hearns did got tired in the later rounds alot.

15 rounders.

15 rounders.

After 1982-1983 they stop doing 15 rounders.


Not an Excuse.

I don't think anyone who tried to brawl with him survived a fight, both Wright and Hop schooled him with craftiness, and the fight with Roy was merely an exhibition match IMHO.

It's sad but Tito with a competent coach (like the modern Nacho, Richardson types) would have been far more competitive against those two, he probably would have lost a UD to both still, but not so embarrassingly...

Only time I seen him tired was against SRL, first fight.
