    Looks like Tito is not fighting in March.

    According to Primera Hora Tito is not going to fight in March, instead he will fight either at the end of april or begining of May. He needs more time to prepare for a fight.

    Their is also a report of him possibly moving up to 168

    Joe Calzaghe is rumoured to be a potential future oppoent for Felix "Tito" Trinidad should he decide to move upto 168 pounds in 2005. His father, Felix Trinidad Snr stated this week Calzaghe or Jeff Lacy could be future opponents should he move to 168 pounds. He stated, "If Don King thinks it is the best fight then that's no problem for us."

    Tito is stranded at 160 when all the big money makers are moving down to 147 and 154 is left with less then a handful of good fighters who doesnt generate enough for Trinidad, the only men at 160 is sturm/taylor/hopkins and 168 poses Calzaghe and Lacy.


    I look for another retirement in 2005 by felix.

      That thought did pop in my mind and I hope he doesn't. Don King needs to make a fight with one of those guys already. He's going to lose even more money if Tito does retire again. Just offer Winky a couple million more and make it happen.

        A winky fight wouldnt be to smart, Winky is a top notch fighter and he is a southpaw who BOXES it is bad enough Tito has trouble with boxers and being a southpaw doesnt help much either, Winky would come at Trinidad with weird angles, although if Tito caught him with a flush shot it would be goodnight and that is the only chance I give Tito of winning and that is very possible the way Winky fought Shane in their second outing, Winky didnt move as much and to me gave Mosley no respect (dropping his hands) and he got hurt and if Trinidad landed those shots.....Well

                Isn't it funny how just at the beginning of this year we all thought talent was finally coming to the 160 division and it would finally be a great division, and by the end of the year it's like nothing ever changed..

                    yes. winkey would be a great tuneup for him. but is their more money fighting a euro like calzaghe. i take it that calzaghe wont come over here so it will be overseas. will that translate into bigger money for both fighters?more peoples wanting to watch? it seams from the posts that euros dont get to watch hbo and showtime so i guess its all sky over there.
                    anyone know?
