I'm sorry but Felix Trinidad = one the most overrated fighters in recent history.

Felix Trinidad kept boxing relevant in the late 90s and early 00s. If it wasnt for his exciting championship fights, I doubt boxing would have survived during that time. Remember, Tyson and Holyfield weren't the same fighters they used to be. DLH quit boxing for a singing career. Boxing would have sucked during that time if it wasnt for Trinidad.

 

Oscar easily outboxed Tito. Hopkins showed that Tito had fixed wraps.

 

alguien que tradusca esto en buen ingles: esto es es el significado de ignorancia ilimitada! una persona que gana 16 peleas titulares en ww sube a sw a retar por un titulo, lo defiende y luego reta otro campeon, sube a un torneo de pesos medianos,cuando en menos de 2 anos venia del peso welter, pelea con joppy lo noquea y luego va con hopkins que de seguro peso el dia de la pelea entre 172-175 libras o mas! TITO GANO Y PERDIO CON LOS MEJORES! el unico problema que tito tenia es que se creia superman.

 

I don't know about overrated. But yout latter sentence is pretty exagerrating.

 

:verysad

You guys sould be thankful ESB doesn't require an IQ test to be a member...equal rights even for some ******s can sometimes be bothersome.:verysad

 

didnt say he's the best. he is ONE of the best. that's not an exaggeration

 

Good fighter,but robbed ODLH

 

He had tonnes of heart , didnt duck anyone and at welter he was a terrifying puncher.

However he was a bit one dimensional , and he had no business moving up in weight because if the opponent could live with his power or was able to defend against it ( ala Hopkins or Winky ) he was sunk.

Plus running of into retirement after being skelped by Hopkins doesn't do his legacy any favours.

All that said tho , Head 2 Head at 147 pounds he is up there as one of the best.

 

:mj

 

Yep yep, and you gotta consider that he's a small to mid sized guy. That KO percentage, even as a big man, is not common.

 

You didn't say one of the best. You said ''one of the best welterweights ever''atsch So that's implying that he could be in the/your top 10 of the all time best welterweights the world has ever known.:roll: Please.

 

That was one great dimension though. And he was KO'd once in over 40 fights, it was more **** balance than a bad chin.

 

Im guessing your counting the Jones fight to?

He beat prime campas, carr, vargas, reid, joppy and De la hoya as well as a faded whitaker and Mayorga back when he was a beast.

 

The judges robbed Oscar, not Tito.

 

Hmm this thread is not about travelling, risking records, and fighting opponents when they were a beast (he was ko'd by that beast).
It's about Trinidad being overrated based on his in-ring abilities.
So stop crying and screeming. Jesus f*cking Christ You look like hysterical baby:rofl
