    If tito doesn't put him to sleep early (and i don't think he would) pac outpoints him pretty clearly, fight becomes more one sided the further it goes.

      I view Pacquiao differently when I envision him going up against a fighter with a great right cross, I always take that into account.
      This sounds right to me. Pacquiao>Trinidad, just not at welterweight. Too big and powerful and will get there sooner or later.

        Trinidad has so many advantages and when you talk about a guy with power, size plays a major role. Pacquiao would be quick and he would make it difficult early but once Tito sets himself and can start landing big shots, he'll take Pac out, probably around round 8.

          I love Pacquaio but truth be told Tito's Achilles heal has always been slick fighters with good lateral movement, good foot work, good jab and able to fight on the back foot Manny is niether of these except in the speed department.

              Trinidad landed 54% of his ounches vs Whitaker, a master of defence and superb boxing skills! I say he eventually catches Manny jumping in and night night!

                Get out of here man, that was a coked up Whitaker far past his best.

                Even if he was at his best Whitaker and Pacquiao have different styles, that comparison holds little relevance.

                  I am making a point about Tito's accuracy. Accuraccy + power + reach/size, bad combination for Pac who likes to jump in swinging wide open.

                    Yeah i get that but i'm saying the Whitaker fight holds little relevance to who wins between Pacquiao and Trinidad.
