    Winky dominating Trinidad

    I was thinking about Winky vs Trinidad. If I remember correctly it took place at 160 and Winky completely outclassed Tito and made him look foolish. Was Tito already shot? Was 160 to big a class for him even though Winky spent most his career at 154? What is your opinion?

    B-Hop took something out of him mentally, that was the end of his prime imho. Trinidad just didn't accomplish anything at MW and Wright had that very frustrating style. It's more what Wright did than what Tito didn't do. Winky was simply a better MW.

      Of course B-Hop ended the whole Tito is the Middleweight heir apparent hype, but the Winky fight makes me think that hype was never deserved. Heck isn't Trinidad the last KO BHop scored?

          The Bhop fight took a lot out of Tito but Winky would have beaten a prime Tito at 154.

            Maybe your right. Could just be a style matchup thing. Very interesting matchup at 154 if it took place before the Bhop 160 fight. He did make Mosley look foolish also.

                  as far as I am concerned, it is common knowledge that Tito was shot AND way out of his natural weight class. Same with his fight against Roy Jones.

                    They were both shot, at that point. I still watched it though;-)
