Why is Trinidad RUNNING to 168 after Winky?

[bigdlb12]

Those who are smart enough to read between the lines know that Trinidad wants nothing to do with Hopkins, and will run up to 168 and try to capture a title there.

I thought Felix was concerned with his legacy, and not money. Why hasn't he enforeced his MANDATORY status and gotten the fight that would seal his legacy?

Tito can carry the punching power to 168lbs while Winky wont, he has very lil power at 154lbs, @ 168 Lacy vs Trinidad will be fun to watch

He wants to be the first puerto rican fighter to win a title in 4 weight divisions.

That's bull**** propaganda to avoid Hopkins. Beating up Markus Beyer does nothing to erase his humiliating loss to Bernard.

He lied when he said he was returning for his legacy.

Obviously you haven't paid attention to what Papa Trinidad and Tito himself have said over the last few months.

They want to run to super middle.

How is Tito running away from Hopkins,

He retired, returned, and NEVER GAVE HOPKINS ONE CALL. Not one.

Hopkins phone never rang when he announced his unretirement, and even Tito would tell you that.

he's tried for a rematch for a long time now.

Give me a ****ing break. All he has to do is enforce his MANDATORY status and he's GOT the fight, or Hopkins HAS to give up his belts to Felix.

Felix is a mandatory in TWO divisions and CAN enforce. He ducked like a *****.

,why do you think he's fighting winky at middle because he want's nard.

He's fighting WInky because it's an easy fight, and an easy win, and then he'll run to super middle.

What two divisions? What have the Trinidads been saying? Finally, Winky isn't an easy fight. He is, though, a good warmup for a rematch with Hopkins. Keep that in mind.

hopkins has negotiated himself out of fights countless times.

also if tito has actually said he never wanted a rematch
can we have some quotes. rather than something you likely
plucked outta thin air.

the rematch will happen.no one is running anywhere
b-hop needs this fight as much as tito.

a win over eastman, a win over tito then a win over
glen johnson or joe calzaghe.

retire a legend

Check that, he's the mandatory in the WBC, and #1 contendor in the WBA. He could have enforced his mandatory but hasn't.

He doesn't want to fight Hopkins.

a good warmup for a rematch with Hopkins.

So Felix and company are all liars? They said they NEEDED NO tune ups, and after Ricardo Mayorga he needs ANOTHER easy KO win against the powerless WInky Wright who stands right in front of his opponents and jabs?

Be srious.

if trinidad is really up to grabbing the belt(s) from BH then he should fight the man immediately. but i give credit to trinidad and his handlers for making this sport a "business" sport. if their plan (to fight winky wright) pushes through then they're getting away with lies, when they said they "needed no tune ups".

Bernard Hopkins deserve to have this fight against trinidad for his retirement is just a few steps ahead.

i think trinidad and co. is playing not just boxing, and i don't know what it is....

[jedihillis]

B-Hop destroyed Felix in their last fight. However, it might just be that Felix is looking for bigger things. Maybe he'll pull a Roy Jones and move up to the light heavywieght devision?

Trinidads been calling Hopkins out for foever, Hopkins is ducking him, Tito said he wants to fight Hopkins but that he doesnt want to fight him.
