What about "It was Trinidad's 2nd fight ever at 160, against one of the best natural middleweights in the history of boxing"
Is that one good enough for you?
Obviously the entire point of this post went completely over your head. It's not a swipe at Trinidad, it's pointing out that EVERY major fight that's happend, there's been an excuse, like you just now trying to say (it was only his 2nd fight ever at 160). Whatever happened to, "I just got my ass whipped?"

Yeah, I'll try to keep up.
And MY point is.... Tito didn't give any of those shitty excuses you're posting after he lost the Hopkins fight. A lot of the fans probably did, but not Tito (to my best recollection).

Again, it's not a swipe at Trinidad (or any fighter). No one said he made excuses. The point of the original post is that these excuses are brought up. Both you or I would be unable to find any big fight where some excuse wasn't thrown around.

Fair enough. And goodness knows there are PLENTY of excuses after every big fight. Some by the boxers themselves............ and a WHOLE LOT of them by their fans. Hell, I may have even thrown around an excuse or two now and then.

I give Tarver credit,after the Hopkins fight that was more or less his attitude as well.Merchant was trying to feed him an out,and he just wasnt going there
