Hopkins last good fight was Trinidad. He done, finished, over. Beating Winky Wright 20 pounds above his ideal weight doesn't mean ****.
Tito was dominated by Hopkins and would have been dominated again...there was never any need for a rematch.
Hopkins broke Trinidad down and stopped him....that kind of result doesn't usually suggest that a rematch would be interesting.
Honestly who gives a **** what you guys think about there needing to be a rematch or not. Obviously Trinidad is fighting jones and its unlikely that he wins but if he did win I think it would just be natural that Tito Trinidad would want Hopkins. I don't think the Winky fight bothers Tito so much its more of the Hopkins fight and Tito personally would love to fight Hopkins for the sake of his pride! so who gives a **** its Tito who would be willing to fight again and obviously the results would be just about the same ****.
bhop totally outclassed tito and it would be worst at 175, what the hell make you think that would be an interesting fight.samething as last fight but this time it would go all 12 i think.
I DONT WANT TO SEE A REMATCH NOW. But back in 2002 i belive it would of still been interesting. I still would fancy hopkins (like most) but still think trinidad could do something Look at ali frazier 1. If you ask me, frazier murdered him. who won the next 2 fights? Look at zale graziano. zale had the measure of graziano, but it still didn't stop rocky winning 1 of their fights Look at lewis holyfield fights. lewis battered holyfield first time but was pushed close second time Sometimes you need 2 fights to see who's really best. fighters do have off nights. The recent marquez vasquez fight highlighted that. 99% of this board fancied marquez. they fought vasquez was TITO and marquez BH
I have watched the fight 4 or 5 times. i won 500 pound on hopkins that night. brings back really fond memories. I watched it live. I though it was a near shut out at the time. but aftre watching it a few times, thought trinidad still had a chance
Hell lets get Trinidad vs Winky II ... Guys Tito is 1 Dimensional and always will be, a fighter as smart as Hopkins could never lose to Tito end of discussion.
