Of course it did. And by extension Oscar. Now everyone should question just what accomplishment it was for Oscar to beat Tito when he's such a 1-dimensional fighter.

no he will always be remembered as a guy who never ducked anyone..and faught everyone that wanted a piece.....No matter how bad the winky vs trniidad matchup looked he still took it......he ducks no one and he will be remembered as a great champ

Personally i always thought tito was very charismatic, but he was overrated as far as his skills were concerned. You can refer to the best tito's opponent thread. And this has nothing to do with this fight but lets face it...

DLH, Hopkins, Winky, all good fighters, but essentially he looked lacking in skills in all of them. Even when he faced Whitaker, whitaker old, just coming off lay off and rehab for drug addiction, trinidad looked clumsy.

I think his reeaaaal notworthy wins are over Vargas, (which was good) and against Mayorga who himself was a wild swinger.

He had no reason to duck anyone. He always gets paid way bigger than any of his opponents and DK is his promoter!

I hope now some of these kids stop calling Tito the greatest PR fighter of all time.

i think this fight does effect Trinidad's overall greatness. He will be looked upon as great fighter from now on, not one of the grestest in of all time.
