CC, basically what I was going to say... Trinidad is obviously more powerful, but DLH definetly puts his shots together much better. I don't think Mayorga was all that ruined by Tito or anything, and the fact is that he was completely open 100% for the taking in both fights, DLH could just capitalize on those opening better, imo. Trinidad couldn't have scored that first round KD like that, he needed to acumulate the damage because he's not the same kind of counter puncher as DLH. It has nothing to do with Mayorga being washed up or ruined, he was sticking his chin out at Tito for gods sake and wildly swinging like he always does, DLH dropped him because he caught him off balance like he always is, doesn't mean his chin was "dented" neccesarily. THat's not to say Tito didn't beat the living hell out of him, Im just saying it didn't seem like Mayorga was any sharper in that fight at all, he's the same fighter.
