    Love Trinidad through career....but I do not see him stopping Margarito.Much faster but he hi,self would have some very vulnerable moments.

    i think he would have, both fighters are similar as in that neither are fast starters, i'd say that both have great stamina, as Trinidad proved through out his career, but speed, power, and a stiffer jab, imo would have helped Trinidad bust him up, and probably win off a swelling stoppage

    Agreed on the speed=power asset for Tito.Im thinking Tony starts fast here as Tito was suseptible in the early stages.While Tito was dropped quite a few ,It was always telling the way he just sort of popped up to resume the battle with minimal effects and walked in.I think Trinidads downfall would be his so-so ability at fighting while backing up,he could juke off the sides well but Margarito would be on him like a smothering blanket from mass angels and while he would catch some his volume and power would keep Tito in check.

    I agree with you somewhat the early rounds would be the worry..

    not that i think tito would be in too much trouble but if tony kept up the volume after a knockdown it might result in a stoppage just for the sheer pressure.. He wouldnt generally have to be hurt or be a good stoppage..

    otherwise i think tito would do it big later on in the fight..

    Thing is naturally tony tends to start a little slower and such so boxing for the first couple rounds tito gets a rythym and it'd be war later but i have tito

    I hear you but I think Titos moxie and confidence would get the better of him and keep him walking forward through out the fight,selling out for the power,leaving him very vulnerable as Margarito is known to get stronger down the stretch.Tito would be wise to Box,box & more box Imo

    I would give Felix Trinidad a great chance of stopping Antonio Margarito as good as Antonio Margarito's chin is............

    I've just been watching some of Felix Trinidad's early Welterweight title defences and he was an animal when he got warmed up no one could survive that left hook in my opinion.

    I all honesty, probably HEarns could have done it. I also see Hagler being able to finish off an entire fight plan that Cotto was attempting but then again he did like to war so maybe would have run into the same problem.
    The key is Self-discipline.

    I don't think any of them except Ray Robinson.Tommy Hearns do we remember Ray Leonard.He wheathered the storm and knocked Tommy out seems like what happened last week,Tito as much as I do like Tito I can't think of one person he constantly came forward throwing as many punches.I think Tito would have been knocked down more than once early in the fight and would not recover.Only to finish with a lobsided desicion. As for Ray Robinson the fastest mand on two leg's in the ring.I think would have danced in circles and constantly beat MArgarito to the punch much like he did against another straight forward in Lamotta 5 out of 6 times. Margarito is the real deal in my mind folks. I believe he can beat anyone in or around the welter's.

    Herans if anyone.

    Probably no one though.

    Youd probably have to look at Light-Middleweights... some one like Terry Norris or a Young Gerald McLeanan for a slight chance of a stoppage.
