Felix Trinidad Wants Kelly Pavlik Fight at 165-Pounds

By Mark Vester

Inactive since last January's decision loss to Roy Jones Jr, former three division champion Felix "Tito" Trinidad is still looking for big fights. A lot of his critics are telling him to walk away, Trinidad says that he stays in shape and is still fully capable of taking on the big fights.

"To the people who think that I don't have any shot [to return to the ring], they should remember that I am a completely healthy person that can achieve whatever I want.  If there are other boxers that are my age, and older than me, that continue fighting, like Shane Mosley, Bernard Hopkins and Roy Jones - then I am also able to do so," Trinidad told El Nuevo Dia.

Trinidad is still chasing a rematch with Bernard Hopkins, wanting to avenge his 2001 knockout loss. Another fight that really interests him is against WBC/WBO middleweight champion Kelly Pavlik, at the catch-weight of 165-pounds.

"Hopkins beat me, but he never wanted to give me the rematch. Pavlik could do a fight with me at 165 pounds. But, they are fighters who fear my punches," Trinidad said.

One fight Trinidad is not even thinking about is a rematch with Oscar De La Hoya.  Trinidad doesn't think anyone would care about the rematch after the way De La Hoya lost to Manny Pacquiao last December.

Are U kidding me. This is one of the easiest fights out thete for Pavlik. Tito has a glass chin and is taylor made for a big puncher like Pavlik. Pavlik is a big middleweight Tito is a blown up welter. This fight will last no more than 3 rounds with Trinidad being dominated than ktfo. He will...

What people here can't seem to understand is how limited Kelly Pavlik really is. Tito is a much better fighter, he has a much better offensive arsenal than Pavlik will ever have. If this fight happens Pavlik will be outguned by Tito, this is exactly the kind of fight Tito excells at.

Tito needs to wait another two years before he comes out of retirement or other wise he'll be breaking his pattern.
