    What do you think Tito was going to say? Do we really think Tito was going to say anything different than James Toney recent rants about today fighters at the HW divison

        well,,,,with tito its a whole lot more believable. tito wasnt disrepectful either in the way he said it. nothing wrong with having confidence. personally I think tito would have stopped mayweather late but it is a tough one to call. mayweather would definitely have to be on his bike for the full 12 rounds

            everything else i said isn't though is it...

            ...lets keep it real...floyd's best win @ ww, against a prime undefeated fighter is ricky hatton, and ricky hatton isn't even a true welter...nobody confuses ricky hatton with prime trinidad...

            don't get me wrong, floyd is the best of this generation i give him that, he can beat this current crop of welters and make it look easy, but honestly somebody give me some solid reasons why floyd would beat trinidad based on who he has beat in this generation that even comes close to prime trinidad right now, judah, no...baldimir, no...shopworn shane, no...maidana, no...guererro, ortiz, or marquez, hell no....

            and please don't give me bs about because oscar was able to outbox him for six rounds, because not only did oscar take flight in the second half of the fight, he lost...trinidad walks thru lil floyd...there's an old saying: you can run, but you can't hide...lol...floyd don't punch hard enough to get trinidad's full respect...

              2014 Floyd beats a prime Trinidad in a competitive but clear fight (think Mayweather-Cotto). 2004-2009 Floyd makes a prime 147 Tito look almost as bad as Hopkins made him look at 160. Nightmare stylistic matchup for Tito IMO.

                Oscar beat Tito pretty easily before he stopped throwing in the last 3 rounds. He was sticking and moving, which is what Floyd does best.

                  2014 floyd?...mayweather-cotto? you mean the shopworn cotto that took beatings from margarito and manny already?

                  cotto @ 154, when floyd should have fought cotto when cotto was undefeated at 147 after cotto beat shane and floyd beat hatton?...cmon...

                  2004-2009 floyd? again...who did he beat @ 147 that was as good as tito?...nobody...

                  ...and lil floyd can now handle tito the way a shrunk down lightheavy hopkins did @ 160...you must be ****ting me...

                    yea,,,I dunno how floyd fans can see his tough fight with cotto and still think floyd easily beats tito. tito like cotto was a pressure fighter but was naturally bigger,,taller,,,,quicker of hand and much harder hitting

                      not to mention tito is an atg welterweight with hearns like power with the left hook and the right hand, not some scrub...

                      honestly i don't see how cats is coming up with this madness...

                      floyd ud's a cotto @ 154, who was already stopped by pac and margarito @ 147, and that justifies floyd beating unanimously, or stopping, a prime, unbeaten trinidad @ 147?..cmon come with something better

                      the oscar argument, ok...you gotta take into consideration, oscar evenly matched up sizewise, skillwise, and powerwise with trinidad (well, at least with the left hook)...oscar jabbed good, boxed, boxed GOOD, made him miss and the whole 9...oscar landed nice combos but i don't think he ever hurt trinidad, or ever made him stop attacking, but oscar tasted trinidad's power at some point in the middle rounds, said health comes first the second half of the fight, and dropped the fight...didn't want to take the risk...and oscar had a solid chin to boot

                      so now you mean to tell me, floyd money, tbe, mr. risk adverse himself, a defense first fighter, much smaller dude than oscar or tito at 147, one punch potshot extraordinaire, is gonna suddenly turn into an offensive machine and outbox tito trinidad to a safe 12 round decision? from the outside no way...get in and out for 12 rounds without getting hit on the end of none of tito's punches and tito has the reach advantage AND tito wasn't a shabby infighter and didn't mind getting his nails dirty when floyd uses his elbows?...hell naw...

                      if judah and shane could touch floyd to the chin good, i would bet the ranch trinidad could a lot harder, and with consistency....it would look like norris vs. taylor all over again if floyd's chin don't hold up i tell ya...
