Nah, cant see it.



Tito did his best in the welts to junior mids. His disaster was chasing Roy Jones Junior. His only credible knockout of a another middleweight was William Joppy during the middleweight tournament. And honestly, had he gotten Keith Holmes in that rather than Bernard having to fight him...it may not have gone that well.



Trinidads power seems to have disappeared in the mids. PLUS he has weight fluctuation problems, he goes all the way up to 190 between fights.



Bernard laid out how to beat Tito, circle him. His footing is so bad he cant punch while he is adjusting...only while he is going forward.



I cant see between Tito getting beaten badly, and one sided between Bernard, and Winky...that he could have done much better against someone as mobile and fast as Floyd. His power wouldnt come into play...he would gas out after chasing Floyd for four rounds (and the weight loss) and then FLoyd would choose when to go toe to toe with him.

Are you kidding. That wouldn't be a mega match. First of all, Tito Trindad is a middleweight, and Mayweather is a welterweight. Mayweather has never fought at that weight. The highest he's ever gone is the junior middleweight division, which is the weight that he fought Oscar De La Hoya at. Felix has gotten his brains beaten out of him every time he faces somebody who can box. For example, Bernard Hopkins, Winky Wright, Oscar really beat him, Tito just got the decision. Mayweather would beat him half to death like he did Arturo Gatti.

Tito Trinidad has had problems with quickly experienced boxers with a superb jab, as de l. a. Hoya had shown. Floyd's basically that - a grasp boxer with astounding velocity and reflexes, to no longer point out smarts. of direction, Tito could be consistent together with his more desirable capability and benefit in length and capability. yet while he does not supply up Floyd interior 8 rounds, Mayweather could escape with an intensive decision.

In the ring Floyd by unanimous decision. Felix is a puncher and will have trouble with boxer style. Oscar outbox him for the first 10 rounds, Mayweather is faster than Oscar so he should win an easy decision. In the phone booth, Felix will murder him.

Mayweather Jr. would dance around and pot shot Trinidad for 12 rounds. Lets take fact over fiction and look at Mayweather Jr. fight with De La Hoya that would ring alot of memories for people who answers this question. THE SAME RESULT....... SD IN 12 ROUNDS Mayweather Jr.

If your talking about right now the fight would not be competitive. Mayweather is the wrong style for Tito.



If talking about back when Tito was at 154, Mayweather would win a boring fight with Tito chasing him the entire fight and getting pot shoted all night.



Mayweather by decision

Mayweather wins this one easily. He takes every round with his footwork or standing in a phone booth. He can walk circles around Tito and expose his footwork, while landing clean shots. He can even beat Tito in a phone booth. Tito is a telegraph puncher---Mayweather would counter him to the point where Tito would look like an amateur.

Once you have Tito beat you have him beat. He simply cannot make adjustments, and Mayweather is smart enough and skilled enoughed to exploit that. Also, Tito's chin was questionable in the early rounds.

If they fight now, Mayweather would win. He might KO Trinidad. If they fought in Tito's prime, I would take Trinidad.

In a phone booth Tito would maul Floyd, but given room to move Floyd's speed would win him a boring decision over Tito much the same way it did over DeLa Hoya.

Floyd would have absolutely no chance to KO Trinidad. He might be able to fight cowardly and squeek out a razor thin decision in another of his boring performances though.

Trinidad by decision because Mayweather wouldn't get close enough to get knocked out. He'd just run, jab & grab like he does against all hard sluggers.

This is a joke right? Mayweather already ducked Trinidad... he doesn't have the heart to fight him. Because he knows he couldn't handle Trinidads hard hitting power... Floyd Wants to pick on guys like Hatton who are two weight classes below his and have them move up to fight him...
