BoxingScene caught up with Felix "Tito" Trinidad and touched base on a number of topics. We spoke to Trinidad about his upcoming May bout against junior middleweight champion Ronald "Winky" Wright, and we just had to get his thoughts on potential rematches against Oscar De La Hoya and middlweight king Bernard Hopkins.
BoxingScene: You are taking on another tough opponent in Winky Wright, but most experts feel Winky Wright is not big enough to compete with you.
Trinidad: Winky Wright is a great fighter, this will be a tough fight but I will previal. I don't see size being an issue because Winky Wright comes into his fights (weighing) at the middleweight level. He had to train hard to make 154 pounds so there will be no excuses.
BoxingScene: Winky Wright has told several news outlets that he does not think you will be able to hurt him and that he will break you down in this fight on route to a possible late stoppage. [details (http://www.boxingscene.com/?m=show&id=758)]
