mayweather vs trinidad

[Majesty]

Agreed Tito was a vicious puncher and Mayweather would not handle that power. He would run and try to survive hoping to catch Tito.

I doubt that. If we're talking the Mayweather at 147 he would beat Trinidad with Trinidad chasing him but not landing much and Mayweather pot shotting him. Trinidad would lose a one sided decision and then say that mayweather didnt' stand and fight and Mayweather would be panned by critics and fans alike that he ran to beat Trinidad when if they are intelligent they know that if Mayweather stood and traded he'd get KO'd. It is a loss that wouldn't harm Trinidad's career at all. But if Mayweather showed he could hurt Trinidad it could be a really long night. As people with Trinidad's style are something of custom made for Floyd. If we are talking the now Floyd at 147. Because back then at 126 even if he weighed 147 he wasn't as experienced as he is now.

yea, i could see Mayweather landing potshots and running the entire 12 rnds to win a decision, but if he couldn't hurt small guys like Judah and Marquez i doubt he'd be able to hurt Trinidad in any way

Don't know if he needs to hurt him but Mayweather has a knack for catching fighters with his speed even if he can't hurt them its a pucn they'll never see coming and I'm not sure Trinidad fought someone as quick as Mayweather. De La Hoya wasn't as fast or as defensively gifted and Trinidad seemed to go into a shell whenever De La Hoya boxed in flurries as he constantly had Trinidad's feet moving and Mayweather would do the same. Trinidad seemed like a "searcher" like he was always searching for The KO even when it wouldn't come. George Foreman said you can wait all day and then not have a title anymore, that fits Trinidad perfectly. Against Mayweather he would constantly be waiting for the shots that would stop him but he'd never get his feet planted to set them up or give them. Besides that Mayweather is good at avoiding left hooks.
