And I truly don't believe he is scared of fighting Floyd. STOP THE HATING.
The Trinidad's have been on record fro years saying 60/40 and DK promotes the rematch . Theri terms have always been open and clear . Oscar on the other hand , changes his statements all the time. Just last week he said "let him come in at 160. I'll come in at 152,153 and be faster . " Now this week it has to be 154 . Why all the positioning ? Tito has never tried to get anyone at the right time or when they showed weakness ( Sweet Pea being a possible exception.) . Oscar always has .When Tito came out of retirement , he clearly staed he would fight either Oscar or Hopkins straight up no tuneup. Both declined for monetary reasons. No parlay just declined. Oscar is promoter now. I'll take a retired fighter's word , a man with nothing to prove , over Oscar any day of the week.
