    Taylor wins by wide UD or KO
    Still this does nothing for Taylor as a SMW, its really just a payday with no real credibility
    Trinidad needs to stay retired

    I don't see this being such a one-sided fight for Taylor like a lot of you here think it will be, Tito may be past his prime and taking the fight at a division he doesn't belong in, but he's still got decent boxing skills and he will have a punchers chance, Taylor isn't as allusive as Roy is and he leaves openings when he's not 100% focused, and you ALL know that Tito is one of the best if not the best at taking advantage of the smallest opening and making a big difference once he lands a big blow, and if he can hurt or wobble Taylor I believe that killer instict will come rushing back to him and he WILL go in for the Kill. If Taylor goes in with a smart fight plan and uses his jab to box Tito he should get the decision, but he better not come in over-confident and underestimate the older but still game Trinidad.

    I see this probably going the distance but with Tito hitting the canvas at least 2 times in the fight. JT really does seem reinvigorated and ready to fight. I would like to see him take on Miranda, Andrande or Kessler after this fight.

    No he's not. His record will not be as impressive when he finally hangs them up, but he'll just end up like the majority of fighters who went on too long.

    I wish Trinidad would put down the fork and get to a weight class where he belongs.

    Taylor stops Tito easily in a horrible one sided beatdown.

    Trinidad should have stayed retired. He is really hurting what he has left of a legacy. I think that Taylor is way too young and too quick for him.

    Tito's punches have no effect on naturally bigger men like Taylor, Tito is going to get knocked out unless Taylor decides to showboat like Roy Jones and string him out the whole 12 rounds, nonetheless Tito will not be able to handle Taylor's power easy fight for Taylor once again Tito makes the wrong choice, What an idiot why does he keep putting himself in these no win situations. Tito is nothing but Don King's puppet right now, Don is exploiting Tito and Tito is going along with it for the money. His legacy and Dignity are being tarnished by his actions.

    I think Taylor wins because he knows that sadly enough this is his last shot. If he loses to trinidad it will be a LOOOONNNNGGGG road back to the top for him.
