Roy Jones Jr. vs Felix “Tito” Trinidad, Prediction

» 02 January 2008 » In Boxing, Guide » 6 Comments


Roy Jones Jr. vs Felix “Tito” Trinidad, Prediction

Roy Jones Jr. (51-4, 38 KOs) of Pensacola, Florida will face Felix Trinidad (42-2, 38KOs), of San Juan, Puerto Rico at New York’s famed Madison Square Garden on Saturday, Jan. 19, 2008.

Both fighters have had incredible careers and are both headed for the hall of fame. Roy Jones is an 8 time world champion and has held titles at middleweight, super middleweight, light heavyweight and heavyweight. Felix Trinidad is a 5 time world champion and has held titles at welterweight, junior middleweight and middleweight.

Both fighters have fought and beat excellent competition.

Roy Jones holds victories over Antonio Tarver, Virgil Hill, Mike “The BodySnatcher” McCallum, Vinny “The Pazmanian Devil” Pazienza, James “Lights Out” Toney, and Thomas Tate.

Felix Trinidad has wins over Ricardo Mayorga, William Joppy, Fernando Vargas, David Reid, Oscar De La Hoya, Pernell “Sweet Pea” Whitaker, Maurice “The Thin Man” Blocker, and Hector “Macho” Camacho.

The fight will be held at a catch weight of 170 pounds.

Roy Jones is now 38 years old and Trinidad is 35. Trinidad has had a two year layoff going into this fight. Which really makes this fight anyone’s guess who is going to win.

Jones has to have a size advantage as Trinidad has never fought over 160. Which is why it is difficult to see Roy Jones losing. Look for Jones to box and flurry with enough juice to earn a decision or some kind of late round stoppage.

But one Tito left hook could change the course of the fight.

Georges “Rush” St. Pierre defeats Matt Hughes at UFC 79

Georges “Rush” St. Pierre dominates Matt Hughes and wins the interim UFC welterweight title at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. This was the third fight between the two. Hughes won the first by submission. St. Pierre won the second fight by TKO strikes.

In this fight, St. Pierre completely dominated Hughes by taking him down repeatedly and landing blows. He was finally able to submit Hughes with a painful arm bar in the second round.

Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell also defeated Wanderlei “The Axe Murderer” Silva by unanimous decision in three rounds in a good stand up striking match.

Floyd “Pretty Boy” Mayweather TKO’S Ricky “The Hitman” Hatton

Floyd “Pretty Boy” Mayweather TKO’S Ricky “The Hitman” Hatton

Floyd Mayweather stops Manchester’s Ricky Hatton in the 10th round of their Welterweight Championship fight in Las Vegas. Mayweather first knocked down Hatton with a “check hook” that sent Hatton head first into the corner of the ring. Hatton beat the count, but referee Joe Cortez then halted the contest at 1:45 of the tenth round as Hatton crumpled to the canvas after a Mayweather barrage. Mayweather is now 39-0 with 25 KO’s.

Some thoughts:

Boxing is becoming way more popular in Europe than America. The English fans are crazy; they sang “Walking in a Hatton Wonderland” for hours.

Hatton fought nearly a perfect fight. He mauled and manhandled “Money” Mayweather very effectively for the first six rounds. The fight was pretty much even on the cards, but Hatton was fighting his fight.

Mayweather’s greatest asset is his vision. He sees punches coming earlier than I think anyone who has stepped in the ring. He is incredibly cool in the pocket and in a clinch.

Mayweather’s lead right is a thing of violent beauty. Maybe the best lead right since Muhammad Ali.

Mayweather’s punching power is very underrated. That was the reason that Arturo Gatti couldn’t open up on him. Hatton deserves a lot of credit for taking the fight to Mayweather.

Hatton deserves all the credit in the world. He also did a great job of executing his game plan. The only thing you can really knock him for is wearing an Affliction shirt into the ring.

Mayweather is a very special fighter. He has a knack for taking opponents into deep water and drowning them. That is pretty much what happened in Las Vegas. The knock against Mayweather is that he wins his fights too easily. Well, he won a tough one. He might not be “Sugar” Ray Robinson or “Sugar” Ray Leonard, but he deserves his props. The haters can shut up for a while. Anyway, Hate is the new Love.

Floyd Mayweather: Master of Mental Warfare

» 01 December 2007 » In Boxing, Guide, People » 5 Comments


Floyd Mayweather: Master of Mental Warfare

Many people think Floyd talks too much. Many people think he is too brash, obnoxious, and cocky (coincidentally, I have been accused many times of the same things). There are certain populations of America that hate Mayweather.

What these people fail to understand is that what Floyd often does, is win the fight before him and his opponent even step in the ring. Watch this clip of Floyd and Oscar de la Hoya:

Floyd Mayweather shakes up Oscar De La Hoya

The interesting thing about the fight between Floyd Mayweather and Ricky Hatton is that it doesn’t “seem” that Hatton is affected by Mayweather. And he might not be affected, which is what makes the fight interesting. I have a feeling that Hatton is being rattled.

Best line so far by Floyd “I know Hatton is 43-0. I can tell you he hasn’t fought 43Floyd Mayweathers. If he did he would be 0-43!”
