    Looks like Trinidad vs. Wright may be a no go.

    According to maxboxing.com Winky Wright refuses to fight in March and is still wavering on financial demands. Looks like the new date is April 9th, but Trinidad may fight someone like Felix Sturm.

      it's a must-see fight, im sorry to hear that it won't push through! well, felix vs. felix, when is this? this will do in exchange for the trinidad-winky fight! we'll see if sturm could spell trouble for trinidad, he's a great counter-puncher, but the question is.. can he last trinidad's barrage of punches?

          Is Winky ducking this on purpose? Seems funny to me that all of a sudden he has all these excuses. People say that he's never got the fights he's deserved but I've always been a little troubled by that statement. Fact is the guy coasts in his fights and doesn't take the big chances.

          Tito - Sturm would be fantastic. Two fighters with a lot of heart going toe-to-toe. Can't wait if it happens.

            I have a feeling that even if King offered Winky $5M to fight Tito right now he'd turn it down.

                Nah... I dont think that he is scared of Tito. Dont get me wrong I am a fan of his but Winky is a pro and if he fights Tito it's gonna be a superfight so Wink just wants to make as much money as possible, because its clearly that Trinidad is gonna be a topdog.

                  well, as much as I wanted to see this fight happen, I can live with him fighting Sturm instead. Felix did put on a good show against Oscar, so a fight between the two might be better than expected?? If Tito does fight Sturm, I can easily see a knockout early on

                    Oh well, I wouldn't mind seeing Sturm/Trinidad myself. It ain't as good as Wright/Trinidad, but I think Sturm is very underrated he could present some real problems for Trinidad.
