It was actually very entertaining seeing how Oscar was playing with him with just jabs...at the start of the fight Trinidad had white trunks, by the middle rounds it was all RED. Alcazar is a MORON for telling Oscar to not fight the last 3 rounds!
About Trinidad and Mayorga...Mayorga was hitting Tito hard the first 2 mins into round 1 until he stuck out his chin and acted stupid. Oscar didn't get hit at all against Mayorga...why? Well you can come up with excuses but the truth is that Oscar has DEFENSE. Tito will never have the boxing skills/defense Oscar has. He will punch harder but that's about it. It's not that Tito was not " Tito " against Winky, it's just that Winky is a wiz at defense. It doesn't matter how hard you hit if you can't hit the opponent. If Oscar were to fight winky, he would also lose but he would make it a closer fight. Truth is they should be fighting at 147 or 154...NOT 160, they both suck at 160.
1. No, not all Puerto Ricans thought Trinidad won.
2. Oscar didn't run away from Trinidad in the last few rounds just because Alcazar told him too. Tasting a good shot from Trinidad and not wanting to get KTFO probably had something to do with it also.
3. Yes, Oscar has better defense than Tito (you heard right). And yes, Oscar is the better boxer (you heard right again). But Tito is the better FIGHTER. Hence, his impressive record which not even De la Hoya can match. Fight by fight, opponent by opponent, Tito has fought and beaten far more impressive fighters than Oscar, hands down.
So yes, you make very good points. I, however, stand by my opinion.
Evaluating Oscar and Tito
Defense: Oscar Power: Tito
Boxing ability: Oscar
Ring generalship: Oscar
Handspeed: Oscar
Footspeed: Oscar
Chin: Oscar
How on earth is Tito a better overall fighter than Oscar. Between the two he is the better puncher thats about it.
"Very few people really understand what it means to be a fighter. I hate it when I hear someone say, 'That fighter doesn't have guts. I hate that, I don't care if you're a world champion six times over or a four-round fighter, to step inside that ring, you have to have guts" Oscar De La Hoya
