Trinidad vs. Mosley: Prime for prime at 147

[dans]

Who wins this fight and how?

Let's imagine this fight happened around the year 2000 when both were in their prime.

Hmm it depends on which Mosley shows up...

Ermm...I don't know. Tito was long and when he used the jab, very effective. I could see him becoming the first to stop Mosley. Then again...Mosley at 147 was frightening, at times.

In the end I think the guy with more tools to fall back on would win this fight and I think that's Mosley, even though he himself was quite one dimensional with his power boxing back then. The speed would've given Trinidad fits and Mosley knows how to neutralize body attacks so I don't think Trinidad would've been able to wear him down, Trinidad wasn't a guy who used his timing and jab the way that Forrest, Winky, Cotto and DLH did either so he wouldn't be able to offset Mosley as well as those guys. Going with the Sugar Man in this one.

I agree with this, I think Mosley has too much for Tito.

I think Mosley would win, Tito is one of my fav fighters but id have to pick Mosley if im honest with myself.

Tito is in my top 5 favorite fighters...and I am not sure if he would beat Mosley

Tough one. I have to lean towards Mosley but at the same time, his Dash-in style might not be the best style to use on heavy-handed Trinidad. Lots of people say this would have looked like Mosley vs Margarito but that's the furthest thing from the truth. Tito and Margs are nothing alike. Tito would have given Mosley problems but I think Shane wins a UD.

Interesting that more people pick a Mosley KO than a Tito KO. Is this just a reflection of who has the better chin (Mosley)? Or do people actually believe that Mosley had equal or greater power than Tito?
