Julian Jackson vs Felix Trinidad Who Wins

[ICB]

This would be slugfest i doubt it would go 5 rounds i think Jackson can ko Tito early because Tito had habit of getting knocked down early and Jackson hit like a truck infact probably hardest hitting p4p fighter ever Tito is better boxer both men have weak chins i think Jackson by ko early prolly about 3 rounds maybe less once Jackson hits you clean its all over Tito has good power but not that one hit ko power Jackson has whats your opinions guys and girls ?

[donnydarkoIRL]

Well i could go into an analysis of why and hoe and centre my arguement around the fact that Jackson was the naturally bigger stronger man....but I really dont have to, Jacksons punches speak for themselves. Jackson in rd.3-5. Brutally.

I really can only make one prediction...the fight will not last 6 rounds. As for the winner, who knows. The first man to get hurt would lose.

Why is it that everyone says Tito has a weak chin when he only lost once by TKO and that was against Bernard Hopkins when his dad stopped the fight in the 12th round?  He might have got dropped a couple of times in his career but always got back up to knock out his opponents.  If anything that proves he does not have a weak chin? ?? If he can take a punch, get back up, and knock a guy out.  I don't know at least that is my humble opinion. As far as who wins, I beleive Tito would have won thier match up, his problem style is a boxer, and jackson is more of the power puncher. Tito has never had a problem with that style of fighting. But it would have been a great fight if they would have got it on in the squared circle, good topic!

In a match like this, it really didn't matter which guy has the better chin or who had the harder punch. It is all irrelavent because neither of the two could take the other's punch. The first one to get one big punch through would win.

I would give the edge to Tito because he was the more technical boxer and better defense.

I have to see more of Jacksons fights to be sure. I really have not seen a hole lot of him. I'm still a rookie fan .

In my opinion Tito never had one punch KO power at 147+
I assume this fight would be made at 154+
Jackson at Middle Had the Grim Reapers right hook, everythin he threw was "big."

He might not have that one punch KO but he definitely had a punch to get anyone's respect. He could make anyone dance with one shot, that's for sure. He is also one of the fiercest finishers in the game. Add to that his complete punching arsenal. He is wrongly called a one handed fighter. He had a very solid straight right hand. If you look at fights like the one with Joppy, he put him down with the left hook but not before he hurt him with the right.

Julian Jackson had without a doubt the most power of the two but Tito had a better offensive arsenal IMO. Still, Jackson would have a size advantage and I would still consider this a toss up, who gets hurt first, kind of fight.

Good post Rookie fan.
I like tito a lot, found him an amiable, appealing sort of a fellow.
I also thought as a national icon he was extremely well grounded and one of the "good guys." Always loved his style, (as it's not all that unlike my own!)
I'd give Tito the Nod against the majority of fighters at 147. However his power, although respectable did not travel well on the journey from 147 to 154. I actually felt his best weapon at LM and Midlle was his jab and i thought he had done very well apart from the Hopkins and Wright fights.
But.....Julian Jackson, i'm not a fan so please don't mistake me for a misguided worshipper. But my god, what SCARY power at Middleweight. And the McClellan fights illustrated he had a good chin also, to put up with McClellans sinister straight right for five rounds was testament to his endurance and will to fight.
I just feel the size discrepancy would be too much for Tito, although who knows the emergence of the best "big" trinidad may be yet to come.

[headson]

times like these that there were a time machine
who ever get hurt first losses

[skyler]

Jackson would hospitalize Trinidad.

[donnydarkoIRL]

HaHa thats how they should measure the really big punchers.

Now entering the ring with 12 wins 12 KO's and 10 hospitalizations....

I actually didn't mean to say Tito had weak chin i meant to say he had suspect one but he could take shots agree but imo he got knocked early too much and was too easy to hit and when your in with murderous puncher like Jackson thats asking for trouble.

[mayorook]

No no no Tito had a very weak chin. He had heart, but no chin and a lot of his knockdowns came early. Heart is the will the to get back up, having a chin is being to take a punch and not get knocked down. He was knocked down atleast 10 times in his career maybe more. Jackson had no chin either but had the strength of a horse. He was naturally bigger than Tito to. When Julian hit Tito he would not have gotten back up. This one would be over in about 4 to 5 rounds. Not to take nothing away from Tito but this would have been ugly!

i think Tito's chin was slightly better, than Jackson's and well yea i think it would be a win for Trinidad similar to McClellan's TKO over Jackson

[greynotsoold]

Jackson was the pure puncher. He lacked the footwork and boxing ability that Trinidad displayed up until his last three or four fights.
I picture this fight unfolding with Jackson coming forward carefully, as he always did, respectful of Trinidad's punch, while Felix moved in wide cicrles to avoid Jackson's power. About the third or fourth round Trinidad would tighten that circle and begin to push Jackson. Julian would fight like hell about this but Trinidad had too much hand speed and was too good a combination puncher to lose out in this. He'd ko Jackson- his chin wasn't all that- in 7-10.
