Felix "Tito" Trinidad (42-3, 35KOs) has been inactive since a January decision loss to Roy Jones Jr. He doesn't have any desire to return to the ring unless there are rematches with Oscar De La Hoya and Bernard Hopkins waiting for him. He's received a lot of offers over the last few months, including fights with Kelly Pavlik and Jermain Taylor, but those two fights [De La Hoy and Hopkins] are the only two to motivate him.

Hopkins face Pavlik on October 11 in Atlantic City and De La Hoya takes on Manny Pacquiao on December 6. Trinidad would have to wait until some point in 2009 to face either guy. Father and trainer, Felix Trinidad Sr., sent a letter to their promoter Don King, indicating that De La Hoya and Hopkins are who they want.

"At this time we are completely away from boxing," Trinidad Sr. said. "We will continue to say the exact thing that was written to Mr. King, that unless there is a fight on a high level, like a rematch against De La Hoya or against Bernard Hopkins, he won't fight because there aren't many [fights] that motivate Tito too much."
