Taylor vs Trinidad......What do you think??

[JT Rock]

I know Tito's 2 losses are to the men that Jermain Taylor went 2-0-1 with so you would think Taylor would breeze through him(Hopkins, Wright) but we know, that logic dosent really pan out since styles make fights...With that being said I think Tito's offensive style would give Taylor all kinds of trouble since Tito likes to stand in front press and bang away...I just see him pressing Taylor and giving him all kinds of problems...Were talking about 2 guys that dont make defense there 1st priority but Taylor has yet to get his chin tested by a strong puncher

If this fight was to take place in 6 mo's I will go out on a limb and say we would have a new Middleweight champion

[bigragu]

and I would have to go out on a limb(not really) and say JT pounds his a** back into retirement....

it would be a world class ass beating for tito at present time
prime tito still loses pretty bad, but he might last 10 rounds

It'd be another big name on Taylors record. A prime Tito would have had trouble beating Taylor.

[Philly Keith]

Tito would get his ass kicked.

It wuld be a painful night for Tito , especially now .As someone else said , hed struggle against Taylor even in his prime . Bad intentions was an improving fighter when he was up against the top 2 p4p fighters Winky and Nard yet he still emerged as champ . Thinsg are only guna get better for him as the comp gets lower and these close decisions hes been having are shortly guna start being replaced with blowouts and sensational wins as he slowly establishes himself as the dominant middleweight . Tito would be a good starting point .

I aint a tito hater . Far from it . I thought he was da man at welterweight . He won me money against Oscar and id say he p4p number 1 round about the time he fought Vargas . However im being a realist here. JT is approaching his prime . Tito is 2 divisons above his natural weight and a good few years past his best .

The inactivity will have done him no good and I feel we have to lok no further past their common opponents to see how the fight would go . I know this isnt the formline on how to judge fights but compare their respective fights againt Winky. Then look at how Tito handled Hopkins and how Taylor handled Hopkins .

Id probably be cheering Tito on if teh fight did happen but bad intentions would have too much IMO at this stage

Jermain Taylor is a boxer who might not have as great of a defense as Hopkins & Wright have...but he does have a workable defense & he's getting faster on his feet too.

Trinidad stands straight in front of you & throws bombs. Sure he'll get some points for his jab...but it's almost non-existent against the likes of Wright & Hopkins & it'd be nullified against Taylor.

Tito's done what he's gonna do people. The past is the past. Even though these oldies/inactives/but goodies come back...their repeats are generally lack lustre.

Taylor by TKO in the late rounds.

Tito is custom made for Taylor & a booster for his record.

[aangel]

I have to agree with Game Taylor is much bigger and Taylor would be able to handle Tito, I say he wins late TKO. I think if Tito were to come back he should do it at 147, or 154, I think he would do pretty good in those weight classes.

[ElTerribleMorales]

first of all, whats the sudden interest in Trinidad again lol

nah but most of the people that are saying that Tito would get his ass handed to him are just saying that and with no arguement to back it up, i mean i'm not saying that he'd beat Taylor, but i know that Taylor is overrated, he's good but he's not as good as we all thought he was going to be, despite his 2-0-1 in his last fights, IMO i have him 0-2-1 and you can even argue the fact that it could be 0-3-0, he has not looked really impressive at all in his last outings, his chin isn't granite, it's slightly suspect to tell the truth, everyone knows that Wright doesn't have much power, he landed his biggest punches on Mosley and Sugar never even really was wobbled, Hopkins 11th & 12th round dominance of him in their first fight wasn't just cause Taylor was tired, and even if it was Tito can lure Taylor to bang with him, and to me that's where Taylor's night will go horribly wrong, if Tito trains as hard as he did for Mayorga (and believe me he trained damn hard, trained for a good 5 months before the fight happened), he could very well pull an upset, and with the level of competition at 160 Trinidad can very well be a force once again, if you look at the division closely it's not as lively as you may be drawn to think, most of the actual boxer's in the division have good balanced skills yet not very much power, and then the bangers mainly have a Mayorga eske style, i think that Trinidad isn't as finished as many think, he has no real reason to come back, his place in history is already set, and he is a legend in his own right, but he could come back and very well retire as a dominant champion at 160, especially now that there is talk that Wright might be going back down to 160, in conclusion i think that if Taylor doesn't try to box, his overrated power won't be able to keep Trinidad off him for the full 12 rounds, and don't really see him hurting Tito that bad without getting tagged with a HUGE left hook, which i think Jermain won't be able to take very well, so yea my opinion is that it's a pretty even fight

[Pugilistic]

i believe taylor wins this one

[VictorCharlie]

I think JT wins this one b/c of his athleticism..that bing said JT gets hit too often, and it would only take one good combo from Tito to end it
