I cannot see Mosley's style nor talent playing into Tito's hands in the same way Duran did to Hearns...maybe if the two box each other we'll see.

To "equate", Tito would have to do a two round annihilation (or win quickly) and in doing so give one of the most breathtaking performances ever seen. I don't see that happening.

Tito would knock Mosley into next week. Wright's power was troubling him and Tito's power is one or two notches above Winkys. ;)

Not in the same way Hearns did to Duran. NO WAY!

I think we are dealing with semantics here, my point is, I think that Mosley (a natural lightweight like Duran) would get mullahed by Tito (a natural welter who has carried his power up to middleweight) because of their styles.

Hearns was a better all around fighter, with a bigger punch than Tito, but they are comparable as welterweights.
