Has tito lost all his cash or sumin?
If you ask me, I believe the optimal weight for Tito was 154. At this weight I saw him faster and stronger than 147 and 160. Cash, I don't think is a need for Tito. Here in the island he is recognized for maintaining a healthy life with his family, no smoking, no drinking, vising orphan homes, etc.
i know he is a total legend in his home country,and well well known and respected all over the world, i just don't get why he wants to come back for:/
Really can't see there being anything for him to gain by coming back,
he surly mustknow he can't win any respected title now?
I'm not sure about this. 160 is wide open right now. We have Taylor, Sturm and Abraham. Not easy fights for anybody but one not so impressive champion and two very beatable world title holders.
Even now, I have no doubt that Tito would destroy Abraham.
Sturms style could give Trinidad trouble but remember this guy was KOed by um...whats his name (sorry, drawing blank here) ex 154 champ. Imagine what Tito could do.
Taylor would have to seriously focus and be ready if he fights Tito because Tito's come forward style (similar to Pavlik) will give him loads of trouble if he can't impose his size and will on Trinidad. Taylor's youth and strength should allow him to overpower Trinidad but that won't be easy. Not against one of the hardest hitters to come in these divisions since Hearns.
Some of you guys are saying that Tito had no power at 160. Ask that to Joppy who has never before or again been knocked out. His three wins at 160 ended in Knockout. He never connected a solid hard shot against Wright or Hopkins.
