Well, there's no denying that Mayorga is not a talented boxer. Of course I know that he's not. I think he will defeat Trinidad (even though I don't want to see that happen...I think this is a bad fight for Trinidad to take) in the same fashion he beat Forrest, even though Forrest is not as good as Tito, imo. Tito doesn't have the type of movement or speed that Spinks does. Spinks uses the entire ring while Tito likes to stalk an opponent. He has a little movement, but really just bouncing around a little and moving his upper body side to side. I don't see him avoiding Mayorga's huge shots. And Mayorga has proven he can take a lot of punishment. I think that, even though nowhere near as talented, Mayorga punches a lot harder than Hopkins.
However, if Trinidad can weather the storm and beat Mayorga, I I hope he stays unretired for a while. Especially with all the young guys coming up. There will be so many opportunities for great matchups.
