    Troll. Everyone know Bernard menatlly cheated. His mental tricks got to Tito that's why he could really land his left hook. Mira chico, tito is the definition of boricua power and when we land its lights out!

    I'd favour the movement option.

    To get him out early, you'd need to go after him, look where that got Vargas.

    Tito could succumb to an accumalation of punishment, as Hopkins showed. Moving side to side, but taking offensive initiative as you do so, also took away Trinidad's offence. It really was such a major flaw for a so called P4P king.


    (Winky Wright beats most fighters at 154, and a fair few at 160 IMO.) :good

    That's because Wright is the second best 154 fighter who has ever lived :good

    B-hop owned your hero and all of puerto rico and you know it. Boricua power? You can't even survive on your own w/o the help of United States of American fool. America is carrying Puerto Rico and you know it.

    Trinidad was never accused of using loaded gloves. Just a way of wrapping that hands that isn't allowed in NY but legal in many other states.

    Felix Trinidad was never able to beat the best. Each time he faced elite competition (Bernard Hopkins, Winky Wright, Roy Jones Jr.), Trinidad came up short.

    just because he loses once via tko you're gonna claim he has no chin? sure he did get knocked down a lot, but so does jmm. and no one claims he has a glass jaw. someone needs to dispel the tito glass jaw myth because it's totally untrue. i feel like his stance (being up on his toes) had a lot to do with him going down.

    He should have beat better welters. He didn't do anything from 94-99 it seemed until the Oscar fight. There was Lopez, Page, McGirt, Pea when he was champ, Rivera, Quartey, etc.

    Yet they all got missed.
