Tito's time is over, and he should stay away from the ring :dunno:. Let Cotto take over the reigns, baton, crown, gloves from now on. He IS on his way to becoming the new best "pound for pound" :thumbsup:. That said; I wonder why it is that people are so quick to forget Trinidad's accomplishments with the loss to a runner
? Granted, he did lose to Roy Jones Jr., but how many times has he been knocked out [not down]? And despite that loss, everyone knew Roy was preparing to run as he normally does. I refuse to give credit where credit is not due, since the sport is called BOXING, not RUNNING. In his day Roy was something to brag a little about, despite his fast feet, glass jaw and light as feathers hands. But the day he was knocked OUT on his butt by some unknown(s), that was the day he lost all credit. Antonio Tarver was NO ONE until he knocked Jones on his behind; and so was Glen Johnson. Who'd heard of either fighter until they each embarassingly terminated Roy, ["honestly now"]. Trinidad definitely should've stayed walking off into the sunset and into the hall of fame with what he had. Fortunately this one has absolutely given Roy the impression that he can return and stay to fight the best today and he could be in BIG trouble for future fights [if in fact he does stay]. He had no chin a few months ago and he has no chin now, so until he's again reminded of the eerie, dazed feeling of being knocked out he'll continue to boast. Let him [Roy] try the clown-dancing in front of someone like Joe Calzaghe: same fast feet, light hands, but without the questionable chin [at least yet]. Message for RJJ]; When he's again sitting [or laying] on the canvas, watching the birdies fly by and wondering "what am I doing on my butt", he'll again be setting the bed for the long good night/retirement. [Although I make no apology for my loyalty to P. Rican and other excellent Fighters who give the sport a great name], I do apologize for the anti-Jones rants, but it burns me that in a sport where one is supposed to fight, people like Roy Jones boast of being fighters, when in fact they're more like mediocre marathoners within a 15 to 20 ft box. Until the next time Roy gets the knock out with his face as opposed to his gloved fists. "Take care and talk to ya'll tomorrow guys"
