Felix Trinidad vs Keith Thurman at 147

[Arvid_85]

Both in their primes, who would win?


My prediction: Slow start from Tito as always, trying to stablish the jab. Thurman would do like many other strong and shorter welterweights did to Tito, knock him down because of the slow start. Eventually the pressure will go up from Felix and Keith will mostly focus on escaping and be off the ropes, draining his energy and will. 10th round TKO in favour of Trinidad.

Is this serious?

[Ron Swanson]

Thirman has done NOTHING, and for a reason. He has been hurt to the head and hurt badly to the body by guys that can't punch. Tito would annihilate him.

This would be David Reed all over again. When the going gets tough, the tough get on their bike and try to outrun the left hook.

Can't see Thurman making it out of this one. Tito was on another level and unlike Thurman, oozed a genuine effortless kind of confidence and one punch power. Thurman may get him down but true to form Trinidad gets up smiling and his left hook lands too often as Thurman straight lanes it on the back foot.

Oh yeah, this would be up there with Sugar Ray Leonard vs Chris Algeri in my all time fantasy matchups.

147 has quickly become an overrated division.
