    There is no shame in Tito losing to Lacy. Its not a realistic weight fight really. Pretty Boy Floyd wouldn't beat Jameel McCline. Doesn't mean he's not a better fighter. There are no draws at 168 so you can throw that division out and 147 doesn't seem likely for Tito. That leaves 154 and 160. At 160, WInky is pretty much out for now, Taylor is possible but probably not that likely, Hopkins is certainly possible. At 154 there is Oscar for a good possibility, Mayorga 2 makes little to no sense, Mosley would be a fascinating fight, Vargas would make sense if Vargas looked good in a win over Mosley since his fight with Tito was a classic. Ouma and Karmazin are obviously out while Quartey and Forrest would make some sense but are iffy PPV fighters at this point. I think a Mosley fight would be the most intriguing fight out there as it would be an interesting style fight. Shane isn't terribly good on defense or with the jab so it wouldn't turn into a Winky/B-Hop fight for Tito while Shane has never been KO'd (or close to it) and would be a little quicker than Trinidad. I think it'd be a great fight

        9 pages and chances are it's all assumptions. At least it was okay to think that it was true.

          I like that idea... interesting points.

            2006...I'd love to see Tito, Tyson and
            someone else I cant think of at the moment, fight and win.
            I guess we can all dream..

              Trinidad is not nearly as shot as Tyson is. There is no comparison.

                In fact I don't even know that I'd say Tito is on the decline. He lost to two guys he probably would have had a very hard time beating at any point in his career while in his surrounding fights with Cherifini (sp?) and Mayorga-he looked on top of his game. I'd need to see Tito struggle to something like a 115-113 win over a mediocre opponent before I begin to call him over the hill, much less shot. Its been said before but it bears saying again. Boxing desperately needs stars. It might not need a circus like Tyson but it needs guys like Trinidad, Oscar, Gatti, and Mayweather to do well. Trinidads return would be great for the sport

                  If tito comes back, that would be cool. An exiting fighter that the boxing comunitie needs. The problem is that if he does not change his trainer, there is no real future for him. The only people he would be abel to beat would be people ****** enough to go into exchanges with him.
