Winky Wright vs. Felix Trinidad- Full fight!

You either weren't a boxing fan then or just don't want to remember the facts. Tito was coming off of the complete annihilation of Joppy, Vargas, and Reid. He was heavily favored through the first bell. When Ring magazine conducted their poll prior to the fight, only 2 of 20 "experts" predicted Hop would win, and most predicted he would be stopped in the later rounds. Hop put on the best performance of the decade in that fight, when u consider Titos punch, skill, prime, n p4p ranking/status at the time of the fight. Hop did every single thing u expect a pro fighter to do. Showed great heart, skill, punch, chin, jabbed, lead with the right, worked the body, boxed, brawled, controlled the center of the ring, boxed off the ropes, countered, kept up a fast pace, showed stamina, and closed the show. Complete domination and an ATG performance that completely ruined Tito. It's funny when u look back at how many fighters where never the same after fighting hop, even if they won the fight.

Listen up Johnie Come-Lately.... Hopkins was favoured by fight night. In fact, some oddsmakers had it for a late KO by Hopkins.

I'm not saying he wasn't coming off of big wins, but he sure wasn't favoured against Hopkins- not on fight day and fight night.
