Several approaches to the relativistic dynamics of directly interacting partiles are compared. The equivalence between constrained Hamiltonian relativistic systems and a priori Hamiltonian predictive ones is completely proved. Coordinate transformations are obtained to express these systems in the framework of noncovariant predictive mechanics. The world line condition for constrained Hamiltonian relativistic systems is analyzed an is proved to be also necessary in the predictive Hamiltonian framework.
