    IMO no way does the much smaller Mayweather stop Trinidad, when the bigger stronger, DLH and Wright failed, hell it took Hopkins 12 rounds to do it, and Jones (who could've stopped him from the 6th round on), IMO Mayweather would either be able to avoid Trinidad's later round onslaught to win a decision, or he'd get stopped and badly beaten
    Different strokes different folks. If it goes into the late rounds then its all Mayweather I just hope that there would be no low blows to change the course of the fight =). Lets not forget an older Pernell Whitaker not including the knockdown had his moments with Tito. I just think that Floyd would be to smart and his speed would be too much for Tito to handle.

    i'm not ruling out the possibility that Mayweather could beat Trinidad, but i honestly don't see how he could stop him, hell he didn't even stop Marquez, Tito took shots from the very much harder hitting Vargas, Campas, Joppy, etc.

    mayweather by late stoppage imo.

    de la hoya gave felix fits and althought made mayweather work probably lost by a point or two. mayweather probably had another 2 gears to go up to as well.
    imo he would confuse the hell out of trinidad worse than hopkins

    I find it unbelievable that anyone can rate Mayweather at Welterweight. Floyd would have trouble with opponents Tito beat like Carr, Campus and prime ODH. Tito punched too hard and would be too big for Floyd. What is the best welter Floyd has fought? Judah? He is not in the same league as a welter. Below that weight yes, he is an excellent fighter but at welter he is not.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
