Trinidad lost all of 3 fights in his HOF career, all to HOF fighters in their own right. The first to Bernard Hopkins, one of the best MW's in history. This after having beaten another MW champion in William Joppy. Trinidad's 2nd loss came to Winky Wright, an excellent defensive fighter, but admittedly Felix's worst loss, IMHO. His 3rd and last loss was to RJJ, at a weight Trinidad obviously didn't belong in.

Felix beat numerous previously unbeaten fighters, numerous Olympic gold medalists, and holds at least one record of title defenses at welterweight that I know of.

The handwrap story has been beaten to death, including in this very forum, when I first started here years ago. Nothing ever came of it. Hopkins' manager even admitted later to just playing head games with Trinidad's team in asking to have his hands rewrapped. Every state boxing commission has its own rules... and what is not permitted in New York is totally permitted in other states.

Felix is an ATG, HOFer, and one of the most exciting fighters of his generation. People talk about Oscar De La Hoya... but Oscar benefitted from a LOT of Tito's leftovers in the ring.

In the end... we all have our opinions. Mine is that Trinidad was one of the greatest of his generation.
