I like Trinidad way more than Roy but I don't give him a chance in this fight. I think he's the type of fighter that makes makes Roy look his best. But, my question to you all is this: do you think that Felix will retire again if he's defeated whether it be a stoppage or by decision? I mean, he was stopped by Bernard and retired after stopping an average/below average Hacine Cherifi. Also, he's fought two times in the last 4 years. To me, it seems foolish that he would jump into this fight with Roy without any tune up fight at this weight. I think that he at least should have fought a few fights against opponents of lesser caliber at that weight. He could have maybe fought Glen Johnson, done another fight against William Joppy or something. What do you guys think about this?
Also, I don't think that Roy should have taken this fight. I think there are too many bigger name fighters that he could get as opponents and I don't think that at this point this fight will do much for his legacy if he should defeat Felix like I think he will.
roy jones jr should retire if he gets beat by a smaller fighter like trinidad. This is a joke fight, and jones should win it
jeje dude trinidad smaller??? look at the press conference i see them pretty even even thou jones has more muscle volume but that dosen't really help u win fights.
Tito Trinidad leads a healthy life style. If you think that dude wasn't in the gym staying in shape, than I don't know what to tell you. Some folks just miss it...the lights, the fans screaming. I was Airborne for 6 years before I was assigned over seas. After 4 years out...I went back...to Ft Bragg....yeah....cause I miss jumping out of a perfectly good Airplane!! and I'm freakin 41 years old! most of the guys I jump with are late 20's. So If you never went back to "get-you-some"...you haven't lived!
The out come of the bout..."SPIT DECISION", either way. That is only if Tito doesn't knock out RJJ.
i think that tito will lose this fight. he hasnt fought in two years and he is getting in the ring with roy jones. dont get me wrong roy is not the same fighter he used to be but he can still cause problems for anybody he steps in the ring with. i say this is a mistake on trinidads part. he should have took a couple of tune up fights first before jumping right into a fight with a pretty decent opponent. oh well im not an expert so i would just have to see when the fight happens.
Roy has to much speed and is to akward for Trinidad, not to mention the weight issue. Roy is no where near his prime but the time off i think helped him and Trinidad will wish he statyed retired after this fight. PEace
roy jones is a hell of a fighter he dominated good fighters and used to have a hell of a chin.. before his lean foward style.. i saw bhop hit him dead on the chin 2 times and jones came right at him...jones style is akward but hes still a great fighter..we'll see how good jones really is and was because of this fight.. if he beats trindad worse then winky and bhop ill give him a lot of credit
jejeje yeah i was figuring out too...trinidad was saying how bad he wanted hopkins that he could beat him i believed that tito wasn't him when they fought he barely threw a punch a he wasn't covering but now that tito is for real on his statements let's see how he's going to impress us on jan 19.HE NEEDS TO START WATCHING SOME IVAN CALDERON FIGHTS MAN.I THINK IF HE GETS BY THOSE THREE HE FIGHTS WINKY AND OSCAR AT MIDDLE AND CALLS IT A CAREER.I'M GETTIN A LITTLE A HEAD OF MYSELF BUT AS A FAN I CAN DREAM. I'LL DREAM ON.
BIN{FUCKING}GO!!!!!!!! THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING MAN!! THEN I GUARANTEE IF HE BEATS JONES HE GOES AFTER TAYLOR!!!!! IF TITO FIXES HIS FUCKING MECHANICS HE'D BE COOL BUT HE LEANS BACK TO FUCKING MUCH! MUEVE LA CABEZA DE LADO A LADO PUNETA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Every Great Fighter Deserves A Shot At Redemption!!!!!!!! Your Always Gonna Nut Huggers Say What's Hopkins Got To Prove!!!!!!!! What's Roy Got To Prove To Him? Shit!
ma boy from PR told me that tito's main goal is redemption against hopkins..he wants hopkins real bad so he's plan is to fight the person who beat hopkins at the same weight hopkins is at right know IF tito beats roy then he's going to start playing with hopkins head until he gets his fight with b hop i think that's smart to get attention of the man who u want vengeance.BIN{FUCKING}GO!!!!!!!!

Frankjack that makes sense, but yur not mentioning anything about how Roy has looked in his pst 6 or 7 fights?? Thats what I'm taking into consideration also. He's scarred & ***ile after getting knocked the f out by GJ & Tarver. Tarver Sucks too. haha At least Winky and BHOP are great fighters
Oh and Shingle, I don't care how old they are, two of the most exciting future boxing HOFamers are going to fight for one of them to re-surrect there career. For Once they aren't fighting to defend but fighting to get a title again.
AGREED man

I'm not disputing that Tito can hurt Roy, they guy can punch no doubt. Although, I do think that right now it is questionable on whether or not that same knockout power will follow him to the lightheavy weight division. Tito's last few fights are brought up because that's the only Tito that we've seen lately. The Tito that didn't seem to know what to do when he couldn't hit Winky. The Tito that took waaaaay more punishment than he should have against Mayorga. I might be the only one who thinks this, but, I thought that in his fight against Wright, he looked very slow.
Tito's lack of defense (if he has not improved on it) will seriously hurt him against Roy. Roy does also have some pop with 38 knockouts. Roy's gonna land and he's gonna land alot. I know that this isn't the same caliber Roy as in the past, but this also isn't the same caliber Tito, either.
