Prime Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr vs Prime Felix "Tito" Trinidad at 147.....who wins?

[The Fukin Prophecy]

Too many variables breh for you OR I to be right.


Im gonna say that this Floyd who's fighting today wouldnt beat Prime Tito.....I cant even fathom the thought in my head. You on the otherhand believe an old Floyd could beat Prime Tito.


I dont know

I don't believe he can, I know he can...

Cats like you were telling me no way a 37 year old Hopkins can beat Tito...

He didn't just beat him, he exposed him and I ate real good off that fight...

Tito never could handle intelligent technical fighters and the current Floyd still is that...

Again, variables.


You're forgetting that B-Hop was the naturally bigger man in that fight. Taller, heavier, stronger, and at 160 so he could absorb Tito's punches much better than a 37 year old Floyd, who could still make 140 and only makes 152 at max.....and who was also rocked by Shane Mosley. Prime Tito would crack Floyd's chin at 147 if he landed like Mosley did

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

Hearns would be a TERRIBLE fight for Floyd. That would be a nightmare bout for him.

This I wholeheartedly agree with...

Hearns was too big and could box your head off...

He just suffered mental lapses which cost him some big fights...

So now were gonna act like the same Shane who KOd Margarito can't punch...

Again size is not what beat Tito, intelligence and skill did...

Styles make fights...

Right...but Floyd doesnt have nearly enough power to hurt Hearns on those mistakes. Hearns would come out swinging for the fences and his ridiculous reach would be real hard for Floyd. I think Hearns is the boxer Id definitely put my money on against Floyd out of those mentioned.

Im not saying Shane cant punch, Im saying Tito punched HARDER


Size IS what also a large part of what beat Trinidad, because he was usually the larger, stronger, taller man in the ring ready to destroy his smaller opponents. Against Bernard Hopkins he wasnt, so it came down to pure boxing skill which Hopkins has in abundance, and what happened is he lost badly.


He was also losing to ODLH, again a guy the same size as him, before ODLH forget he was boxing and not running the Boston Marathon


And then, even as an older fighter, he lost to Winky Wright (5'11) and Roy Jones (5'11) at the higher weight classes.....both the same height as him and naturally bigger.


Variables played a role in those fights.


For someone to tell me that a 5'8 fighter, with shorter arms, and who could still make 140 and career high weigh in is only 151 lbs would be able to withstand Prime Tito's power, doesnt compute to me

tito not in floyds class
can only see someone like hearns beating a prime floyd
even then, floyd might find a way to outsmart him

 

[Black Ball]

I think some of yall are forgetting how good boxers could make Tito look real ordinary. If a fighter of Floyds caliber decides he's not gonna give Tito any openings and just out box him technically, Tito could look really garbage in the ring.

Now on the Hearns talk, that's the one dude I think Floyd couldn't see. It's hard for me to even imagine a way in which Floyd could beat dude at all. I'd give Floyd a much better chance of outboxing Hagler than being able to figure out Hearns.

I give Ray his props for pulling out the 1st fight, but Hearns showed to be better than Leonard overall in there 2 fights imo. Ray vs. Floyd would be a toss up to me. Ray could both be touched and outboxed.

i see floyd beating sugar ray
hearns is a match up nightmare

honestly floyd beats tito with ease
and floyds punching power is underated
people keep trying to downplay but everyone he fights says he hits pretty hard
he dont one punch knockout power but he has enough to get your attention

Cotto beats Tito wooooord??

Cotto Struggle boxes to keep Tito off of him...gasses like ALWAYS N Titos Elite Stamina N Power leaves this nikka leaking

Tito looking slimmer than usual.....

at this thread

Tito aint work...............Hearns might do it............ass nikkas

Hearns did not struggle with Leonard. In the 1st fight he got KO'd, but he was outboxing Ray the whole fight and was winning on all cards. Leonard had to pull one out of his ass to get that W. Not to mention he beat Ray in the rematch but Leonard was given a gift draw.

Floyd has a chin yes, but we've never seen him up against somebody with the power that Hearns possesses. And the size would put Floyd at an incredible disadvantage, because he can't just dodge all Hearns punches and pot shot him. He'd have to open up and throw, which would leave him right in the line of fire to get hit with some brutal shots. Plus Floyd doesn't have the power that Leonard, Hagler, and Barkley have.

Hearns went up against Wilfred Benitez, one of the greatest defensive fighters of all time. And beat him. I see a fight with Floyd being similar to that

Okay IMO Hearns did have problems with Ray, I don't see how if you got KO'd and came to a draw by the same fighter isn't struggling, maybe struggling is a strong word, , I guess it's all perspective because I think Ray stole the 2nd fight, regardless he's winless vs. Ray. Yes...We've never seen Floyd against someone with power like Hearns, there's no one at 147-154 that HAD/HAS power like Hearns, also we never saw Hearns go against someone with the combo of offensive percision and defensive skill such as Floyd's. Sugar, Hearns and Blade doesn't have the skills that Floyd has either. You feel since he beat the defensive wiz in Wilfredo he's going to do the same to Floyd? But Floyd isn't Wilfredo, Wifredo isn't skilled out like Floyd, bad comparison IMO, let's not forget that Floyd is the complete pacakage, he's a helluva offensive fighter and a helluva defensive fighter at the same time, NONE of those fighters you mentioned are. Wilfredo was good on offense though not taking away from him. Skill for skill Floyd is just a different animal compared to the others Hearns fought. No saying it'll be a cake walk, not saying Floyd won't get dropped, not saying that Floyd won't barely win, not saying that Floyd won't get lumped up, I'm saying that a PRIME Floyd finds a way to be Hitman, that's all breh.

 

[Master Teacher]

Pretty much.
I'm glad you posted this pic breh, just to show that the size difference is crucial as fukk. Welterweights from the 80's and 90's to early 00's were much bigger than these midget welterweights we got now. It's one thing to fight a big strong slow fukk like Margarito. It's a whole different battle when you gotta box a nikka that is not only bigger and stronger, but they're also almost as quick as you with good technique and explosive power.

Like I'm supposed to believe that a guy that was running at the end of fights against N'dou, Shane, Clottey, Margarito, and Manny could beat Tito.

Welterweight divison is way better today than it was in tito s era

The fact tito is taller with his build always made him look frail to me when cotto is solid and a better boxer with a better resume

 

[Pimp]

If Tito hit Floyd like Mosley did he would have finished him. Hell a prime Shane would have finished him.
