Felix Trinidad Vs David Reid 2000

Cheatoe and his loaded illegal, handwraps were a disgrace.

 

Good underrated fight, Reid was doing well untill he started getting too ****y then he got caught by a Tito left hook that not not only knocked him down it started the end of his career. Tito was a bad dude.

 

Spot on!!!! :good

 

atsch

 

Reid had no business fighting Tito with only what 9 pro fights or something like that

 

The hardest punching WW in the history of boxing , Second to Tommy Hearns of course .

 

:good

 

I believe it was 14 fights. Reid was the goods, but his eye wouldn't last. So his team cashed out.

 

Either way he wasn't ready for Tito with under 20 fights .

 

Great fight from a great fighter. So many of Tito's fights provided so many elements of what we like in boxing, from ebb and flow, to KD's, fighting through adversity, seek and destroy, great boxing, KO's etc. More often than not, you got everything out of a Tito fight, a great fans fighter.

 

David Reid was a total hype job...and had that eye problem that always plagued him. I don't give Trinidad a whole lot of credit for beating Reid. Beating Vargas was impressive... I'm not going to call Trinidad a cheater, but after Richardson caught him before the Hopkins fight, it makes me wonder how many fights and how many years was he using illegal wraps.

 

The wraps were illegal only in that state

 

And it wasn't even about the wraps but how they were being wrapped. I don't remember Tito getting any suspensions or fines

 

this.
