Tito and Hopkins maybe in September

[Sir_Jose]

Tito was mildly competitive against Hopkins. There at least was the air of Tito landing a turnaround shot throughout.

Who is this other guy Trinidad wasn't competetive against ?

No he wasn't. He lost every single round and no way is anyone taking Hopkins out with one punch.

Hopkins/Tito punch stats

Hopkins
Thrown: 634
Landed: 260

Tito
Thrown: 329
Landed: 129

DLH/Tito punch stats

DLH
Thrown: 648
Landed: 263

Tito
Thrown: 462
Landed: 166

yeah looks real competative to me.

You always say the same **** about Tito...Not as good as Hopkins? I hope that you mean that just as a middleweight fighter...he wasn't even competitive against who? DLH? Is not his fault that DLH turn into a ***** and RUN the last 4 rounds of their fight scared of being hit by Tito...Against Nard I believe that Tito didn't or wasn't able to perform at his full potencial...IMO Tito underestimated Nard and went to the fight just looking for the KO...but to say that he wasn't even competitive?...not competitive but he went the full 12rds?

Give it up, my god man.

They fought and guess what we found out? Tito is not as good as Hopkins DEAL WITH IT.

Yes DLH was so scared of being hit. I mean damn Tito was just tee'ing off all night long wasn't he..oh no thats right he was swinging at air like a fool.

DLH ran like a lil girl for a reason, stop makeing excuses.

The thing what I don't get is why do you people think he will stand a better chance, just because he beat Mayorga. What did Trinidad do to Mayorga (who isn't even a credible 160 pounder, let alone a good fighter.) what will lead you Tito fans to think this??

I will tell you why I think that he will stand a better chance:

In their fight, Tito underestimated Nard...I say this cuz in an interview b4 their fight he said that he beat the best middle in Joppy...He was just looking for the KO against Nard...after 9/11 he stop training to help the ppl from NY...while Nard went back to training...all the things that Nard did to get into his head like the hand wraps and throwing the PR flag to the ground...Also in the same time it was know that he had a child outside his marriage...

And the most important thing...HE FOUGHT NARD...THE GUY THAT MANY CONSIDER ONE OF THE BEST 160 POUNDERS JUST IN HIS SECOND FIGHT AS A MIDDLEWEIGHT!!!!

Tito fans listen up.....YOUR BOY GOT STOMPED FOR 11 1/2 ROUNDS BY HOPKINS, IT WASN'T EVEN CLOSE. and the same would happen again, the end result probably coming quicker this fight around. Tito can't handle the diversity of Hopkins.....and there is no way ever would Hopkins take that fight or any fight lightly, so you know his coming to win, always. he's too proud, and trying to cash in before he retires, plus he wants to leave his legacy behind intact with wins on his way out. i'll take Hopkins 10 out of 10 times, fighting Tito. if they fight again, it'll be a 9th rd ko by an uppercut this time. i'm calling the round and the punch too!!! Hopkins ko's Tito 9th rd, by an uppercut!

also Hopkins won't be giving any freebie's either like mayorga did.......

waah waah waah! stop crying and making excuses, if tito was so great he wouldnt be distracted by that ****, hopkins not only physically beat him, but YOU just admitted that he also MENTALLY beat him, which is even worse dude, get over it, tito is a great fighter, but bernard is an all time great, he is just flat out better

you dont outland your opponent by one HUNDRED punches by fighting like a girl. It's not good to idolize people homie, they will let you down. Tito is a great fighter, but Bernard is better. Plain and simple, no bias, it's a legitimate fact.

you make some good points. with all issues withstanding, he should have been able to keep his head concentrated on the task at hand (Hopkins), i think he will do better than last time for the first few rounds, but Hopkins is going to break him down. Oscar did a better job against Hopkins than Tito did, and I dont think Tito will even do as decent as Oscar did. He will do better than their first fight though.

I'm not crying or making excuses...I just think that Tito can beat Nard in a rematch...flat out better than Tito? So he is flat out better than DLH too?...Nard is not even close to Tito's legacy in boxing...

I never said anything about the Tito/Hopkins fight.
De La Hoya ran like a lil girl, you dont run for nothing.
