Not like a Canelo, whose offense was nonexistent, or a Pac, whose offense was woefully ineffective... his shots didn't have much power. It would've been interesting.
    I think Floyd takes him at 154 too. Wasn't the weight, Floyd was just a much better boxer and I don't think Floyd gets hit with left hooks.

    As far as MW goes... I don't think Floyd could make the limit!

    Trinidad's offence was virtually non existent against the best boxers he fought I think.

    I like Tito though, I been rewatching a lot of his fights lately. Great puncher. Viva Puerto Rico!


    Lousy Don King imitation.

    Anyway... we'll just professionally disagree on all counts.

    Tito probably wouldn't even hit Floyd twice!

    Floyd would have been able to move around freely while Tito got set up on that front foot...by the time he was ready to throw Floyd would be on his other side and countering effortlessly.

    You make it sound like Trinidad would be fighting underwater, while Floyd would be fighting in fast forward. Both are exaggerated.
    As far as the # of shots..... twice may be all it takes.

    You gotta quit getting your information from the National Enquirer.

    No loaded wraps, no power. Just watch the Hopkins fight. It's as if Tito knew he didn't have power in his punches. Kinda like how Pacquiao just seemed to know that he couldn't beat Floyd.

    He didn't really land much on Hopkins though, did he? It's been awhile since I seen the fight.

    Hopkins said DLH laid the blueprint to beat Trinidad and I guess he was right.

    The wraps were not loaded. Its a crock and why involve Tito? Since you did he would give Floyd one hell of a go at 147. This wrap garbage needs to be chucked cause its one of those urban legends that continues long after it was exposed as a crock. Roach used to wrap Oscars hands using twisted packing tape and nobody cried about that. Tito's dad changed direction with some gauze and people act like he pulled a Panama Lewis.

    I stick up for Floyd as much as anyone and appreciate the mans pugilistic prowess but I can honestly criticize him also or question his history etc etc w/o feeling torn about it.

    I never really knew the truth. I heard people say they were loaded, some people said they weren't. I myself don't know what constitutes and illegal hand wrap in boxing to be honest, other than you're not allowed to add cement to your wrap like Margacheato did.

    It seems a bit ridiculous to think that a bit of extra tape or whatever the fuck it is, is going to suddenly turn a guy into a murderous puncher. Tito had great technique on that left hook.

    The hands had to be re-wrapped for a reason...

    In a post fight interview Papa Trinidad said that his special hand wrapping style gave Tito extra power--extra power that was missing when they had to re-wrap his hands.
