I know that doesn't mean everything, butfrom what I saw of Trinidad against Wright it wasn't his power he lost, its that he has always had a little bit of poor timing compared to the great boxers. Against people who stand there he can land shots but he can't land against a moving target which is the biggest difference between him and his precessor Miguel Cotto who doesn't hit as hard, but he is faster and he is a better boxer.
I've heard a lot of claims regarding DLH vs Tito.... but you're one of the few I've heard claim DLH had as much punching power as Tito. You are completely disregarding the fact that Mayorga took a SH*TLOAD of punishment from Tito. By the time he fought Oscar, he was "tenderized." Same happened with Vargas. So if you want to discuss Oscar's boxing skills, go ahead. But please stop short of claiming something that just isn't true.
