    Trinidad would have beaten Floyd 10-2 at 154. There is no doubt in my mind. Too big and fast and skilled.

    A hall of famer and world champion boxer who was huge for his weight class and would probably enter a 154 pound match rehydrated to 165-170 pounds would beat a boxer who would enter a 154 pound hydrated at about 152 pounds??? You made a thread about that?? Yes, generally in combat sports, 2 fighters of similar skill level, in this case both hall of fame level, compete and their is a massive size difference of 10,15, 20 pounds, 9/10 times the bigger fighter is getting the win.

      Tito had no defense. he would eat leather all night.

      I saw winky Wright beat Tito 12 rounds to 0 with 1 hand.

      Floyd vs Tito is Floyd vs Corrales.

        Felix Trinidad was utterly befuddled by Bernard Hopkins, and Hopkins didn't even do anything all that out of this world.

        Trinidad had size and pop, but there's nothing in Trinidad's history that would lead you to think that he would be able to match skills with Floyd.

          Tito was out of his league @ 154. He was best at 147. Winky beat his a$$ like a drum kit and Winky is a b!tch.

          Look at what a 14-0 David Reid was doing to him until Tito hit him with a perfect left hook. He was tapping that a$$ like it was an all you can eat buffet! 14-0 dude!!!

            No. Floyd would out box Tito Trinidad. Tito is nothing with his left hook, and if Floyd took that away, well good luck catching Floyd. But Winky Wright on the other hand beats Floyd 8-4, 9-3.

              He would have knocked him out, no doubt.

                I think to be overrated is the best compliment. It means people admire or appreciate something about ur style or excitement that they are wanting to give u a bias. Tito was fun to watch. But he had no balance and could be flashed. No adaptability. He's dad would say in the corner "Same but harder, but don't get hurt". I loved Tito. But Floyd beats him. Tyson is the most overrated which means he's loved the most. After Tyson v Spinks I asked my Dad if anyone could beat Tyson. "Well son there is this guy named Evander Holyfield"...

                  Tito was too clumsy for a slick Mayweather. Even though 154 is probably Floyd's worst division he is still better than Tito.

                    Size wise, Floyd Mayweather is a true 140lbs. He use to walk around in the early 150lbs? But I think 147lbs was just easier for him to make. Barely any weight cut at 147lbs. He's a small guy. 154lbs has never been his weight. It's stretching it for Floyd. For those who think weight doesn't matter, you obviously have never sparred or fought inside of a boxing ring. Weight divisions exist for a reason.
