    • Tito is my favorite fighter of all time. He is the sole reason I became a hardcore boxing fan. However, I don't have Tito in my top 50 ATG. But, he is an ATG. He is easily in the top 75 greatest fighter of all time. He is in the top 10-15 greatest WWs of all time. And, that division has over 100yrs of boxing history. I rank him way higher than Oscar. I thought he beat Oscar 7rds to 5. Matter of fact I don't think Oscar is ATG.

      And, I would like somebody to school me about these "magical wraps" or "wrapping methods"

      • At his best Trinidad was a attacking boxer puncher, with heavy hands especailly left hook, argubaly one of the hardest single punchers in history.

        Trinidad's left hook was the most feared punch since Thomas Hearns's right cross at 147. Tito threw the hook with bad intentions and perfect levrage, if it landed cleanly, the end was near.

        Trinidad was always dangerous, particularly after being knockedown in his prime. And was one of the best finishers in the game when he had you hurt.

        Trinidads record at 147 was 36-0 with 30 KO's. He made 15 defences of his IBF 147 Title and unifed the division. He became the first man to clealry beat Pernell Whiatker and gave the unbeaten Oscar De La Hoya his first loss.

        He then moved up to 154 and took the unbeaten scalps of World Champions David Reid and Fernando Vargas in devastating fashion. Before moving up and destroying WBA Middleweight Champion William Joppy in 5 devastating rounds.

        Going into his fight with Bernard Hopkins, Trinidads record stood at 40-0, and he was already a three weight world champion.

        Trinidads Resume Of Wins
        -Alberto de las Mercedes Cortes
        -Maurice Blocker
        -Hector Camacho
        -Luis Ramon Campas (56-0)
        -Oba Carr (32-0)
        -Larry Barnes (39-1)
        -Pernell Whitaker
        -Oscar De La Hoya (31-0)
        -David Reid (14-0)
        -Fernando Vargas (20-0)
        -William Joppy (32-1-1)
        -Hacine Cherifi
        -Ricardo Mayorga

        Some people like to remember Trinidad for his recent form, were he suffered one sided defeats to Winky Wright and Roy Jones Jr. But at his best Trinidad was a forced to be reckoned with and his accomplishments speak for themselves.

          • Perhaps the De La Hoya fight hurts but I feel he was a great fighter. His rise through the light middleweight and middleweight ranks was spectacular!

                  Tito is a legend!
