Trinidad-Wright Conference.

The world’s best 154-pound boxer, Winky Wright, who has never been knocked out, moves up to battle one of the best knockout artists ever in middleweight Felix “Tito” Trinidad at MGM Grand and on HBO Pay-Per-View Saturday, May 14. Each combatant can credibly argue being the hottest boxer in the sport today. Wright defeated the gifted “Sugar” Shane Mosley to become the undisputed 154-pound champion March 13, 2004, beat him again in an immediate rematch Nov. 20, 2004 and has not lost a match in more than five years. Three-time world champion and Puerto Rican superstar Trinidad emerged from a 29-month retirement to electrify a packed house at New York’s Madison Square Garden in a slugfest against former unified welterweight champion Ricardo “El Matador” Mayorga Oct. 2, which Trinidad won with a spectacular eighth-round technical knockout.

On Friday at the MGM Grand, promoter Don King along with Felix Trinidad and Ronald Wright will hold a press conference discussing the May 14 superfight.
