    Today in www.endi.com Tito said that he will fight 1 or 2 times in 2009 before his definite retirement. He says that B-Hop is way up in his list but that B-Hop is scared of him :patsch

    Anyway, my question to you is... supposed you get hired by Team Trinidad, who would you have Tito today fight his last 2 fights??

    I'll start by saying

    Tito vs Margo
    Tito vs PW

    and try for him to go down at 154 lbs.

    What do you think?

    Here is the link of the news in case you know spanish...

    Trinidad needs to put the fork down and get down to 160.

    He wants the big money rematches with DLH and Hopkins, but won't drop down and meet DLH at a weight where DLH would agree to.

    If he doesn't get Kelly Pavlik, maybe fight John Duddy at MSG.

    When they discussed Tito-Taylor, Papa Trinidad said 170 and no less. Tito can't make 160 anymore and doesn't want to make 168. So as he would only fight Oscar or Hopkins (stated in an article), Nard is the only possible opinion.

    Bernard Hopkins knocks out Felix Trinidad at 170 pounds.

    What fight I would make? Well... to make money, Tito vs. Calzaghe (Joe by mid-rounds TKO). For tune-up, let's say Peter Manfredo Jr. In between, Jeff Lacy is your man. He's beatable nowadays. Maybe someone in Germany would put down a f*ing bag of money for a fight like Tito vs Beyer (Team Arena) or vs. Brahmer (Team Universum). But f* it, if Germany, how about Tito vs. Ottke? :-(

    He should stop taking this ridicolous big layoffs and lose some weight and then talk about fighting.
    P.S.:Stay away from Hopkins

    I think the winner of DLH-PAC is on the target following the rematch with Jones or Calzaghe.

    The sad thing is I'd be genuinely excited to see Tito fight again, even if it's at that ridiculous 170 lb mini division that seems to be forming (we can call it either bantam light heavyweight or super duper middleweight).

    Tito vs Jermaine Taylor could be genuinely interesting (for a while at least) as would Tito vs Calzaghe. That said I'd like to see Tito actually WIN one of his retirement fights.

    Cheato Trinidad should fight Pavlik at 160 and get his Glass Jaw shattered into a million pieces we would never hear from him or his stupid dad again.

    I would like to see tito fight again. This being said, he can never go down to 154 ever again.

    160 is where is at for Tito, if he cant make the weight then he should stay retired and enjoy his millions of dollars

    Chicken de la Hoya is too busy calling out Filipino Strawweights. Oscar was afraid of Tito in 1999. And 10 years later he still is. Lets all pray that Pavlik manrapes Hops, and then Hops gets called the **** out. :smoke
