    That's why I feel so comfortable with what I'm saying. I have no I'll will for Tito. He never beat up anybody I was a fan of.

      Wasn't much out there at the time. Joppy is a dime a dozen fighter in my book. In every weight class there are 8 to 10 Joppy's. I can't remember anything outside him beating Duran that would have given him any lime light. I'll let y'all throw sugar on **** to pump ya boy Trinidad up.

      I'll take your insults with a grain of salt because its clear you don't have anything useful to add. PR baby. I dig your loyalty chump.
      Canelo would batter Trinidad?..really..he couldnt KO a 40 yr old Mosely..at 154.., Tito was a monster at 154. He actually beat legit 154 pounders. Canelo has zero head movement..do you understand how Tito would tee off on this kid?..

        Even now Mosley has a 10x better chin than Tito. With a smarter game plan Vargas could have finished him.

          Vargas doesn't and never will have Mosley's or Tito's power though.

            Thats all a would of.. could of..should of..but we all saw what happened. You just dont like Tito..and thats fine..but to say that Canelo would batter Tito?..thats just a pipe dream. Mosely has a great chin no doubt. But he is 40 years old..Vernon Forrest beat him by a large margin and so did Winky and this was when Shane was still Shane. Heck Forrest almost knocked him out..Canelo didnt even come close to knocking him out.

              Tito would've flattened Canelo at 154.

                    Maybe not but he was well above average.

                    What Canelo did to Mosley was absolutely brutal to watch. What fight did you see? Don't misunderstand me. I'm no fan of Canelo but I can't deny the fact that he's been working on his game and it shows. I don't hate Tito but the truth is he never adjusted to anything. That's why technicians gave him fits.

                      1. Vargas' power was above average at best. He stopped opponents by accumulation and never seriously hurt any top fighter.

                      2. Tito in his prime adjusted very, very well. Not sure where you're getting your info from but it couldn't be further from the truth. Heck, Trinidad-Vargas was as much a war as it was a tactical battle where Trinidad was forced to adjust on a couple occasions. But, Tito's ability to adjust was evident at welter, in fights like his one against Oba Carr who, in his prime, was a pretty good boxer.
