Trinidad / Roy Jones Jr. - in January at a catch weight of 170lbs.

Don't know the purse but guaranteed it's gonna be huge. Tito vs Roy = REVENUE. Regardless, these guys are both legends even if the are past their prime. Like I've always said, Tito should've stayed retired, but to come back and challenge roy, who just came out of a fight? Ridiculous, he should've fought a lesser oponent and build his momentum. What's the purse on this fight? Anybody know?

Woah, chill out man. There is a difference between hardcore fans and casual fans. You can't expect everyone on earth to watch every step of boxing, you act like Roy and Trinidad haven't earned there spot in the limelight, even if it is past their primes they were both great and are still remembered to this day. Maybe some of these other fighters will reach that status, but until than it will just have to be this way. I don't act like Roy and Tito haven't earned their spot in the lime light, what you talking about.. I'm a hardcore boxing fan so I break down my thought's in a vivid way, I don't look at the size of my posts I just keep typing till I said everything that came to mind, I know a lot about boxing so thats probably why you say what you say, casual fans can't dig as deep as me and other hardcore fans into these fights.. my problem is the disrespect of people shitting on Trinidad and praising Roy like he's flawless, I think Tito is gonna win the fight in dramatical Tito fashion with one of those replay worthy knockouts, something just tells me Roy gonna get hit clean and fall right after.. my problem is people's nerve acting like Tito ain't shit, some of ya need to go do your homework, you don't just become Puerto Rico's most celebrated fighter by being a regular boxer, Trinidad has stature and so does Roy so before people take time to bash these two they should take that same time and do their homework and when they got they shit right then speak your thought's amongst true boxing fans u feel me.. 100

im for this fight, there are plenty of defenses for this fight in this post so i wont do it, but im exited, Roy gon knock him out

you people are sleeping on Trinidad too much, you guys are just giving Roy Jones the fight without recognizing his diminishing speed, he get's hit way more than he got hit 5 years ago, Trinidad WILL be able to land his left hand once Roy is on the ropes and wether it's to the body or the face doesn't matter because once landed Roy is going down or at least will be hurt.. see Trinidad is coming in at good weight, he was weighing in higher than 160 in his last middleweight showings and his body structure can take the weight, if Trinidad comes in a solid 170 not some chubby titty shit then you know his power is gonna be off the meter's.. I think that after all this time they know they have to make some adjustments on Trinidad's hand game, they have to give him overall movement, better use of the jab and a better arsenal of punches, Tito had a lot of time to improve and Roy has been looking good but one thing is one Trinidad is a champion fighter in multiple weight classes and has the experience to hang with Roy, the problems he's gonna have are more himself than Roy, if he can't put on the weight right he'll be too slow, if he doesn't let his hands go he will just try to defend and hope, if Trinidad however does adjust to the weight he can mount a good offense and if he lets his hands go we could see the same Trinidad that beat Mayorga or Vargas.. either way Trinidad has seen boxer's, puncher's and people that are a mix of both, guaranteed Trinidad will be able to hang but it all depends on him, how he adjusts and how his mindset is come fight night.. don't get me wrong Roy could win, he could use his slick boxing to confuse and frustrate Trinidad but overall it wont be nothing Trinidad hasn't alreay dealt with, even in his losses he learned, guaranteed he saw the tape of his Winky fight and he studied his mistakes, I don't think they want to come back to a loss, I don't think they ever wanted to lose in the first place so in order to win I think they gonna make the necessary changes in Tito's style, I got Trinidad by either KO or a decision of any kind, Roy gets hit too much and it just so happens hitting is Trinidad's biggest advantage here, Trinidad can get hit then come back to win, Roy hasn't, Trinidad been hurt and knocked down and came back to get the KO, Roy stood down, if Roy get's hit enough to drop he's gone and at the pace Roy has been lately I think Trinidad will catch him and put a hurting on him, just my 2 cent's.. 100 Woah, chill out man.

glad to see Roy staying busy But there is no reason to gripe over the fight. If you are really opposed to it don't watch it.

If Hopkins can fight Trinidad and not get a bunch of shit about the size difference Jones has every right to also. Great Point! When Hopkins fights Tito, Bhop gets all the accolades for winning the fight. But when Roy fights him, all of a sudden its a different story. And by the way, if Bhop wanted to fight Roy so bad , why didnt he just sign on the line when Roy said 60/40 and Ill tear your ass up. Did he really think he deserved equal money in a fight with a guy who had already beat his ass? Bullshit! He didnt want the fight. Yall musta forgot!

boxing fans. i knwo they are not in their primes but better late than never. If Hopkins can fight Trinidad and not get a bunch of shit about the size difference Jones has every right to also.

So if roy wins, trinidad fans will blame the weight. If trinidad wins, roy fans will blame roys age... Nice, and trinidad is not naturally 170 and thats a bad weight class for him... So, who ever wins... Who really gives a shit? boxing fans. i knwo they are not in their primes but better late than never.

This should be one of the most overhyped fights of all time. Average sports fans are going to get this match shoved down their fucking throats, theyll buy the fight and then afterwards talk about how fucked up boxing is (thanks Roy). They wont see Pavlik vs. Taylor, Marquez vs. Vasquez 1,2 or 3, they wont hear about Pac vs. MAB they wont see Calzaghe vs. Kessler, the motherfucking Diaz vs, Diaz fight will get zero pub if you ask them if they caught Mosley vs. Cotto youll get a blank stare but by motherfucking god these poor unsuspecting sports fans the regular joes if you will are gonn get this fight because it will be force fed to them. This is why Jones needs to be knocked out again and again and again until he gets it, he is no longer a player and engaging in a fight with Tito is really regardless of who wins just a robbery-we might as well just donate money to Roy's retirement fund. (Tito-why not face a guy that at least wants to fight) Fuck this fight its a joke, sure Mayroga vs. Vargas may be meaningless too but at least they are gonna give the viewers every fucking penny's worth, Tito is gonna plod around the ring with his aging/limited skills hoping Roy gives him an opportunity to set his feet in concrete so he can let the left and Roy is gonna run around like a chicken with his head cut off, probably gonna win a boring ass decision and proclaim that hes back atop the p4p list. Fuck this fight and the way they will promote it-these are the types of things that hurt our sport, again thanks Roy. thats boxing as a hardcore boxing fan and boxer im excited about this fight as much as any other fights. im going to watch all those fights. if i dont attend a fight im ordering every ppv watching every fight on tv. thats what hardcore fans do. now the ppl who will watch this fight and not MAB vs PAC or vasquez vs Marquez are casual fans they only know the guys on tv on radio in mags and newspapers. they know roy n oscar n tyson. they are casual fans. roy getting knocked out wont do nothing they will either still watch roy or media will find a new person for them to watch.

So if roy wins, trinidad fans will blame the weight. If trinidad wins, roy fans will blame roys age... Nice, and trinidad is not naturally 170 and thats a bad weight class for him... So, who ever wins... Who really gives a shit? Jones fans and puerto ricans...

Maybe they'll be able to sell the fight to casual boxing fans because of their exciting performances in the past, who knows.

I hate this fight so much, yet it will be promoted like a big fight when there are so many more better fights out there.
