Mosley has no head movement... no jab ala DLH. He would have been knocked out. Tito's power was way above Mosley's power.Comment

Tito also didn't fight Terry Norris who was just one division above him @ jr middle for years. Tito was too busy fighting old lightweights and jr lightweights like Whitaker, Pendleton and Camacho and other jr lightweights like Oscar among other smaller fighters.i think that would have been a huge fight. after mosley beat oscar the first time.
why didnt they set that up? i know tito was starting to campaign at 154 but mosley went up to 54 anyway. i guess catchweights wasnt popular. but i think this would been a great fight.
everytime i think about it i find a way for the other to win. i jsut cant come to a final conclusion who would win.Comment

Mosley has a longer reach than Trinidad by like 3".
If you had any ounce of defense or lateral movement, smart jab[not just throwing it to throw] you would have beaten Mosley[Forrest, Winky]. Trinidad had neither of these except a decent jab but you needed defense and lateral movement too. He had good power, and that's it. Same with beating Trinidad, don't stay in front of him, was a sucker for the jab[see DLH fight in the early-mid rounds & Hopkins fight(lateral movement], and have defense[Winky Wright]. You stay in front of either prime Trinidad or prime Mosley, you're as good as KTFO. Mosley had lateral movement and good footwork, Trinidad didn't. Mosley was also miles ahead in the handspeed department and both of them had power. Trinidad has a career KO% just like 4 more points than Mosley's.Comment

No it isn't,before the Punisher Winky was my favorite fighter,he was probably the strongest jr middleweight fighter there was!!Not punching power,but strength!!Right after they gave Vargas that gift win over him,Winky was a man on a mission,I knew he'd beat them both!!Comment

cotto could handle boxers better because of his movement and he adjust. tito stays the same way stalking you the whole time. cotto at 140 wasa stalker as well but he had better footwork than tito. and you need good footwork to handle a boxers movement. coto cut the ring off really well. his downfall is when he started to believe he was a good boxers and abandoned his stalking agressive body attack.Comment
