I would be shocked, I feel Tito deserves more credit if he wins than if Jones wins. I dont think Tito could knock Jones out, though I guess nows as good as time as any.
i think they would say jones is shot as he is but i would give him his props ... then he would fight pavlik and get Ko'd
What can the odds be on this fight, really? Are we talking about the same Trinidad that plodded after DLH eight years ago? I can't see a guy getting eight years older AND going up 10lbs higher than his highest previous weight (which was already higher than his prime weight) having any kind of mobility, especially when it's Tito Trinidad. The guy hasn't even fought in years...and now he's facing the guy who used to be one of the most elusive ring characters in the history of boxing. RJJ may be old and slow(er) now, but I'd be willing to bet he's still light-years faster than Trinidad in the speed department. I guess the X factor in this fight is RJJ's "china chin", but we'll see how hard the old fatty Trinidad punches, compared to the one we knew and loved (hated) from the DLH, Mayorga, etc fights I'm a Trinidad fan, too, but I can't see him pulling this off. Not anything I would bet on, at least.
I think he deserves a little bit of credit if he knocks out Jones. But Jones has already been KO'd twice by Tarver and Johnson. Jones is still a very competitive fighter though as evidenced by his last 2 fights.
