    Yeah, i seen it, he was great in that fight but like i said, this retirement was all wrong, come back for one more fight and get a win against an A plus opponent.Maybe King can talk some sense into him.If i was dominated like that, i would have some pride left and come back stronger.

      I agree with the return bout. Freitas was embarrassed by Corrales and he is back. That is the perfect example. Trinidad should fight at least one more time against a good opponent.

          Two mistakes Don King/Tito etc made:

          1. Over conifidence in picking Wright as a second comeback opponent. Wright had all the things to beat Tito. An excellent jab, defense and he`s a southpaw. Add Wright`s excellent chin, you have all the makings for Tito to lose.

          2. Tito had lost his ambition. Tito retired last time he was defeated. He cited the reason being Hopkins wopuldn`t grant him a rematch. Then why didn`t he go and make a rematch by winning enough and becoming the mandatory? Because Tito just didn`t want to get his butt kicked again.
          I think Tito came back for a few easy paydays and then quit again.
          Wright just sped up the process!

          Tito should not box again, he just deosn`t want it enough. He lacked hunger, a plan B and boxing skill. Whats the point in fighting for Tito?

If I were Trinidad SR....I would have told him to throw nothing but body shots for the first 8 rounds. Nothing.....but hooks and straight rights to the midsection.
            yeah but that punk NADY kept telling him hewas hitting low when he wasnt wright trunks were ahead of his belly button..trinidad could ahve pounded his body for a punch of rounds and just let wright cover up

              Winky just had the perfect plan, big gloves to cover his face, high trunks, and very careful...he didn't want to win fans; he wanted to beat Tito...

              I give props to Tito on taking the risk of fighting Winky, but they should have gone with safer opponents like Mayo till they where able to fight Nard..
