Re: This day in boxing. A look back.
I watched that live in PPV, early was breathtaking as Mayorga was landing well, plus the bravado of letting Trindad hit him flush. I recall it was evenor close to even for 3 or 4 before Trinidad knock him out. Mayorga was such a strange fighter you don't know really how he will punch or able to land , it's so unorthodox

Mayorga has the crazy smoker bad man image which he enjoyed and played up to. Taking those punches from Tito was taking that image too far and nearly got knocked out. Hated the fact Mayorga beat Fernando Vargas.

This fight was not televised because they could not agree the amount with ITV and we missed a classic live.

Alexis Arguello defeats Alfredo Escalera via 13th-round TKO for Escalera's WBC junior lightweight championship, in Bayamón, Puerto Rico.
It was the first of two fights between them, both 13th-round TKO victories for Arguello.
