He actually has had 4 fights at 160 (if the Winky fight was 160 which I believe it was):
Joppy - KO'd him
Hopkins - Got KO'd
Mayorga - KO'd im
Winky - Got abused for 12 straight rounds.
It was like this I believe;
Joppy - KO'ed
Hopkins - got KO'ed
Charifi - KO'ed
Mayorga - KO'ed
Winky - got jab to death for 12 straight rds.
5 fights with 3 KO's..that tells me he has power at 160.
I am watching the fight. Big Fraewell Trinidad party. (not!)
Please, No more Cintron pictures.
The way he flopped around on the floor after his last win he has alot of redeeming to do.
It was like his hand all of a sudden woke up from a nightmare of 12 brutal rounds with Paul Williams.
What an actor
Reminded me of Evil dead.
Want to put a bet on this fight? 30k says Jones will not only beat him but dominate him.
The fanboys are getting a bit biased now, Jones has fought and hurt a Heavyweight
na 11k are enough bet for this fight im saving all my points for the mayweather-cotto fight.
You are seriously delusional if you believe Tito will have power at 170. Denying that Titos power was significantly diminished at 154 and nearly gone at 160 is plain ignorant.
You can argue till you are blue in the face, Natural Welterweights do not carry their power up to light heavyweight.
I never said that he will have the same power at 170 than he did at 147. If I did please quote me on it..What im saying is that he did carry his power as he went up in weight..to argue your point when you said that he doesnt have the same power 154/160..you stated that his power was not significant. Which I totally disagree with. Like I said from his fights at 154/160..Most of them ended in a TKO or KO. And thats a fact. So I think you might be kind of delusional when you state that his power wasnt significant at 154/160.
And why dont you compare those KO's to his KO's at 147? Because taking 7 rounds to pound out Ricardo Mayorga with around 350 clean flush hooks is not that impressive regardless of the eventual outcome.
You have obviously never seen Tito at 147.
Yes were talking about the same Ricardo Mayorga that took everything that Forrest threw at him..and Forrest is not feather fisted. I have seen Tito at 147 were he was a bit faster but he carried his power with him as he went up in weight. You cant say that becuase Mayorga took all his shots that he doest have the same power in the higher weight classes than he did at 147. Thats 1 fight, how about Reid?..Vargas?..Thiam?..those guys never got KO'ed or let alone droped until they fought Tito at 154..doesnt that say something about his punching power?
Anyone accusing Tito of having power is sorely mistaken. Tito's power was severely diminished at 154 and virtually non-existent at 160. It only serves to reason that at 170 Tito will be feather fisted.
How can you say that?..the guy had 6 fights at 154 and won 5 of them by KO/TKO. At 160 he fought 3 times and won 2 by KO.
William Joppy win = handwrap cheating in effect? Who knows.
Anyway, Jones better have better stamina then he did in the hanshaw fight. His speeds gone, but had his hand speed. If he just more stamina he could have finished Hanshaw when he knocked him down.
:nonono: :nonono: :nonono:
hand wrap right.this again.amazing
A Mayorga can take a better shot and Roy, William Joppy still went the distance with B-Hop, Dont get me wrong here..If this fight were to have happened back in 2001-02 Roy would of destroyed Tito..but alot has happened since..Roy lost to Tarver..but yet B hop beat Tarver from ring post to ring post..Roy still have spurts when he looks like the Roy of old but he is fighting in spurts..thats why I give Tito a punchers chance here. Im going for Tito becuase I like Tito and I love fighters that just go to bang and knock people's heads off. I still think Roy has the edge but dont count Tito out.

My heart wants Tito to win, but my head says Jones Jr. is going to win. People shouldn't write off Tito though, all he needs is one hard left hook on the chin and Jones Jr. will be knocked out cold, I will laugh my ass off if RJJ goes to sleep and lays on the canvas unconscious again, lol.
RJJ one of my favourite fighters but i cant see him winning this or seeing the final bell unfortunately
i no Tito can be outboxed but man i watched his fight against Joppy again the other night & the guy was a beast he punches so hard its untrue & while he may not be a light heavyweight i still reckon he hits harder at 175 than Glen Johnson ,then there is the fact against Tarver ,Johnson ,Hanshaw, Roy couldnt keep his back off the ropes
HA HA That's funny Tito beating Roy not that it can't happen because in any giving day someone can be beaten. Consider the facts my friend even tho Roy has been figthing basicly sparring partners he's been more active then Tito. Roy even won him some minor titles. The last time Tito was in the ring Winkie Wright had him tasting jabs looking in the sky lights you might not want to put your hopes on Tito buddy
What the fuck? Are you serious? Did you actually read my post?
what the fuck did tito do to your punk ass?
Nothing, Roy Jones is one of my favorite fighers ever. That's why I'm saying that, shit I don't give a fuck about Tito now. He's fighting at LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT? It's Tito, come on .. He knows he never should have accepted that fight with Jones at light heavy
Cotto forgot to say Cheese. When will that guy smile.
I took that picture with him after he fought Quintana down in A.C.
We were out at the club Cuba Libre and I ended up having a conversation with him and his wife. His mother grabbed me and asked if I wanted some pictures.
Then she told him to stand up hahaha I wouldn't have smiled either.
Good call though. Iv'e only seen one picture of him smiling and thats the one of him and Tito together.
A class act though. Very friendly guy.
You know what they say mi amigo....
Don't bet with your heart.
Trinidad is washed up.
He's just looking to get paid.
That boy is going to get his ass boxed off until a mid rown stoppage.
Jones in 5
Cotto forgot to say Cheese. When will that guy smile.
This fight is basicly about money.. eventhough its a mismatch, im excited to watch
I know what your saying. I'm still going to watch it, even though I know Roy will win this one. Two big names that are worth watching.
