Tito Trinidad: I Lost to Hopkins because wife found out about affair

[Spicoli]

Infidelity effects mind and body in strange ways...Im betting had Hopkins known he was now sleeping in the front yard and living out of a suitcase he would of shown mercy.

Skeptic 101......might he be planting seeds cough,cough...for a rematch? Not that one is warranted and he looks like a Macy's float now,but still?

....ha ha ha absolutly hillarious. Hey vic darchiniyan says he lost to donare cause he accidently wore his little sisters boxing shoes that night. And he had his mouthpiece upside down.....and a bug in his eye, etc.

[Snakey]

Cmon we are talking about the guy who retired everytime he lost basically, of course he needs an excuse...its the only way he can come back and fight. He needs to believe he would of won if something didnt affect him when the reality is that he was second best on those nights.

I'm TitoFan, and I'm going on record saying that I agree with all the posters here. It's just an excuse. Whatever happens outside the ring, you got to put it all behind you when you step INTO the ring. And when you lose, you lose... that's it.

That being said, practically ALL boxers come up with excuses when they lose a fight, especially when they're not used to losing. It's hard to be in their shoes. If we were... we'd probably ALL have excuses too. I'll never forget how ungracious the great JCC was when he lost HIS first fight... it wasn't a pretty sight. So cut the guy some slack. It was his first loss in what was a spectacular, stellar career. He felt he let his countrymen down, especially after all the sh*t Hopkins spouted before the fight.

But I've always given Hopkins all the credit in the world on that night. He fought a masterful fight, and toppled the great Felix Trinidad. It was well-deserved.

agreed, only case i would say that it really isn't an excuse and more of a fact is McCall Vs Lewis 2

I think the best excuse I've ever heard was, "I had on itchy socks" by Pacquiao.

Tyson: I didn't get to eat Lewis' children that's why I got my ass kicked.

He didn't wear itchy socks for sure in his last 2 fights with EM.
