I dont really know..
Floyd with his fast feet, hand speed, quickness and All time great defense, pitted against one of the best Welterweight ever produced. Trinidad at 147 was a very special and great boxer with helacious power...
The one thing that leans me to Mayweather is Trinidads legendary lack of plan B and his chin. I can see Floyd beating Tito to the punch frustrating him with his footwork and reflexes and counters. When I mention Tito's chin its more to illustrate that he certainly landed on his ass early from flash knockdowns, which would prove detrimental from digging himself in a points hole and having to play catchup... Floyds boxing intelligence always seems to exceed or at least compensate for any perceived disadvantage he faces against an opponent...
Then on the other hand your talking about Tito's power and crisp punches, could he shatter the Mayweather guard and slow the pretty boy down enough to do some serious damage? Perhaps.... I just dont feel any certain outcome is a fore gone conclusion. Both fighters possess great intangibles.
I dont think there is a wrong argument from either side as long as its well thought out, certainly a case can be made for either one to be victorious![]()
