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...
I also think a prime dlh would have had a 50/50 shot at beating Floyd. a shot to bits dlh gave him hell the first time until he forgot his jab. a young dlh would have kept that jab pumping
