Re: Fernando Vargas hints that Trinidad only beat him because of loaded wraps
Joppy just had no respect for Tito's punch power, was taking the shots on the jaw flush, stubbornly, kinda like Mayorga did, but less showy. Ahhh remember Mayorga lewtting tito land 2 left hooks right oto his jaw, pointing and challenging him. That made for some great stuff, didnt it. Mayorga sure whooped lil Foo Foo Fernando's ass, too, didnt he?

If Mayorga was fit he could have beaten Tito. He had no where near the fitness of when he fought Forrest. He was fucked after the first or second round. Took a hell of a hiding against Trinidad and only went down from a body shot in the end. Obviously letting Trinidad hit him flish with his best punch didnt help but he looked too strong for him in the first round. His fitness let him down.

trinidad was exposed by Winky Wright, Oscar de la Hoya, Bernard Hopkins, and Roy Jones as being utterly unable to box, utterly unable to make adjustments, when faced with a slick boxer. Trinidad needed a Vargas, a Joppy, to stand right in front of him and challenge him, bomb away.
same as Foreman, who lost to slick boxers like Ali, Jimmy Young, Evander Holyfield. Couldnt deal with the slicksters.

can go ahead and add Canelo, Hatton, Rios, Provodnikov, and a million others to that list, they're brawlers with a bit of boxing ability
