    Yeah, I was actually surprised he didn't use his jab more but that torn tricep probably had something to do with it.

    Same here, after hearing commentary that Jones did for a few Trinidad fights, I knew that Jones had the perfect tactics to beat Tito.

      I think the Tito that fought Winky was just past his prime, Even though Winky had the perfect plan to beat him a prime Tito would still have done something different, Oppose to standing right in front of Winky No head movement and eating the jab all night long.

        He didn't look that driven in the fight. He pretty much gave up on himself by the second half of the fight. But yeah Winky would always be hell for him.

          When did I say it didn't mean anything??

            You completely discredited the win by saying Tito was shot.

              Well, it wasn't a great win. Fighting and beating Tito at 154 in 2005 isn't anything to jump up and down about.

                When you beat an ATG like Tito, that had been somewhat active, that had KO'd 5 of his last 6 opponents, and you completely dominate him the way Winky did, yes it is.

                      Roy Jones talks some SERIOUS Sense man, he KNOWS boxing big time! EXCEPT when talking about Roy Jones!

                      Anyway my take is Wink gives Tito trouble whenever they fought but Felix had lost alot of passion for the sport rather than physically deteriated. U know when a guy has retired his heart aint quite in it no mo
