a lot of mayo haters will say he good wooped and whatever
mayo showed great heart tonight..he gave and took and his chin i dont care if he did go down he was not ko'ed...(ref stopped the fight cuz he thought mayo was getting hit to much)..and he got up...the man does deserve the title of "best chin in boxing"...anyone here could see that after so many rounds of getting hit and giving back also...but he showed something else no one knew..
HEART...he got up from a power shot that would have killed dlh...got up again from a flush hit to the chin that would have ko'ed anyone even hopkins...the guy has heart and showed it..no matter what..he will be around and there is alot of people out there he can beat..just dont fight st MW mayorga..go down and ko the f**k out of zab-cory-margarito and santos cuz if he can go that long with tito and hol his own...he has my respect..and made a fan out of me...respect mayo...and f-anyone that didnt think u could last in there...street fighter..by a good one :D
If Mayorga learned how to technically box at all and would quite the damn smoking he would be a killer. He is still a good fighter but his behaviors are catching up with him. He is also the toughest son of a bitch i've ever seen.
Man I couldnt agree more with this. Mayorga looked like a mad man last night. If anyone else was hit with those bomba from Trinidad they would have went down. I was saying to my friends during the fight that this guy must have sold his sole to the devil or something to be able to take punishment like that and continue to have the power that he had in his punches. Lasts nights fight was like a battle between good and evil with Trinidad as the good guy. It was a great fight and I have a lot of respect for Mayo now after watching him fight like the true warrior that he is. Im glad Tito won. GREAT FIGHT!!!
Mayorga is to boxing what New Jack, Sandman, Mick Foley, or Supreme is to pro wrestling. Some "purists" will say they don't belong in the same league as those who fight on a technical level, but the average fan actually often likes them more. And as a fan of both, I definitely have a soft spot for the guys who go out and lay it all on the line, even if they don't defend well or box the way they teach you when you go to the gym to learn the sport. I'll watch Mayorga til he retires.
WTF are you crazy, would you pay again to see a lame fight like DLH-Nard please...BTW I got a ? for you guys I'm from PR and the trasmition (i don't know if that is the right word) of the fight was suposed to be HBO PPV, but we got fuckin Kingvision???No HBO commentators and instead of pounds and inches the put Kg and another metric shit like centimeters...wtf was that...I hope the the reply is from with the HBO commentators, I just love to see the crazy ass Merchant...
[/QUOTE
Yeah, I would most definitely pay again to see a fight like DLH vs NARD.
I thought it was a great fight, and Nard did exactly what I expected him to do
tito has great fight ahead...with taylor/nard/sturm..whcih ever he picks will probably be boring..but not as boring as dlh/hop
mayorga will go down an hopefully make a big money fight against margarito which hella people wanna see...i think he can ko just about anyone at welter or L.Middle if he works hard just stay away from MW(he's not good at this weight but can last)...
point is there are a lot of great fights to come..no one wants another 60 dollar fight of crap and boring stuff...i say atleast put dlh with mayorga if anything...mayo will make it exciting he may lose but still i can't handle another dlh/hop fight
so i wonder were tito goes from here

how is oscar not a waste of time he was out for more then a minute..now bernard knows what to do..take him into late rounds and attack the body hard...besides if u have not notice.dlh has not said he wants a rematch
Trinidad has just "come back". To stack him up against Hopkins after one "helluva fight" is premature hopes gone awry. But, on the other hand, to denegrate/dismiss his performance for the reason that he faced only a Mayorga who is not quite a middleweight? Well, those who do may find some valid reason other than hate; nonetheless, Tito did what most others on the comeback trail didn't and wouldn't: he faced a Mayorga; somebody who well into the time that they both entered the ring was judged by many as the man to abbreviate Tito's comeback bid, and not a nobody who is a faint somebody only to the most religious boxing researchers. Mayorga is the only recognizable figure (however one may figure such a figure) that any "comeback" former great, near-great and would-have-been-great has ever faced in the recent past. :rolleyes:
ya
trinidad is a waste of hopkins's time
he should fight like sturm or tarver or somethin first
ooo i forgot he said he wants to have 5-6 more fights he might as well make tito retire again but i REALLY want a rematch with oscar de la hoya and watch tha golden boy beat his ass for tha whole fight
i would love for tito to ko nard..but i dont know if he's ready...if he beats the man that ko'ed dlh (had him on the floor for a minute a 5seconds)...then he would be known as one of the best i think..seriously if he does beat hopkins will that make him better then W.Benitez to puert ricans? or what about his legacy..damn alot is riding versus a hop rematch
dont get me wrong i want tito/hopkins more then anyone..but still i think at this point it would be a boring replay of the first one...i think i'll keep on with mayorga(way more exciting fighter)...umm mayo vs hopkins???as much as i would love it..i think nard would be to much...this is not the same mayo at welter were he would never tire..at MW he's not as fast and his stamina is not as good he should go down to 154...but would mind seeing how hopkins would handle a guy like him
I said from the get go that there was no way Mayo was going to beat Tito. The possibility just didn't exist in my eyes. I said it a long time ago that the jump in weight would cause Mayo to lose power and stamina. As for the rematch with B-Hop your damn straight Tito knocks B-Hop out within 9 rounds. Hopkins has been way to cautious in his last couple of fights and that will cost him against Trinidad and his new found jab. Trinidad isn't the best boxer by far, he isn't the fastest or the most fleet of foot, but I'll put my money on Tito's left hook before I put money on that faggot DLH's pity pat style of boxing anyday of the week.
Say what you will I think Tito wouldn't have beaten Hopkins in an immediate rematch. But Hopkins has gotten old and Trinidad is going to put the old man on his back. if the fight happens there will be approx. 6 months before the fight comes off this isn't going to help Bernard one bit. But it sure as hell will give tito more time to get back into the swing of things.
i am a fan of both of these i never said mayorga would win..when did i say that..so why are u putting labels on me....i was a fan of both but said tito would be to much
come on mayorga made more fans that night then tito did
does it look like little difference to u..come up 2 weights to fight one of the best in our era!!!
Not labeling anyone; I just didnt take down names while reading all those posts..Not you? No problem babe ;)

the thing here is no one is talking about tito...cuz he didnt do anything big...they gave him a man that was a welterweight...i mean everyone is respecting mayorga to the fullest for staying in there..he deserves the respect... tito doesnt..i mean mayorga skpped 2 weight classes to fight him and clearly couldnt handle the weight..and was in there with one of the besst of the era for his MW dabute..we all knew his style was not the best for tito..but that simple fact he took shot and gave them for that many round is amazing...
i dont think tito as done anything to make nard nervous...tito would have had to beat winky or j.taylor for nard to even go "hey he's back"..right now benard know tito has not proved anything except a true welterweight with heart and pride took him into the late rounds...so dont listen to the hbo crew just yet with the tito ball licking :D ....all tito did las night was make a lot of mayorga fans..he needs to fight winky or j.taylor now..to prove he's ready for nard
and mayorga has a great career ahead of him if he wants..this guys has lost before and never let it get to him..he was right out there again ko'ing people...he will go down in weight to L.middle or welter and dominate cuz with a little help he can
Okay, THIS is what I was waiting for!!! For the past 3 week's all the Mayorga fan's have been posting that Mayorga would KILL Tito, make him re-retire, make him wish he'd stayed retired, etc...how can you come back now with the size difference?

Well, it was a 'given' no matter what. 2 judges from NY, and one from NJ, and a fighter that no one has ever heard of before (more of less) it went about half a round with 3 (I think) knockdowns...and guess what!!! Judah won; and had the guts to celebrate this so called "victory" after it was over. What little respect I had for him (which was none, I admit) I lost last night. Just my opinion; I'm SURE his fans will disagree!Oh, went aaccording to script, eh? And you lost, in effect, NONE, because you never had any to begin with; respect for Zab I mean!LOL :D !!!I'm not gonna be surprised if he called out Spinks during the post-fight interview and say he's gonna do to Spinx what he just did...(?)Or, maybe, Tzyu? Both? Mayweather? :)
Mayorga's a loser. His smoking and not traning hard showed in this fight and he got his ass beat. And how can you say those shots wouldve taken out Hopkins??? When have we seen a shot take out Hopkins?
I'm soo happy Tito whooped his ASSSS
Yeah, Hopkins is a lot harder to KO than Trinidad. So I don't get where that comes from? If you're going to speculate something that rediculous then please back it up with a reason or an example.
