Review: Felix Trinidad vs Ricardo Mayorga has been one of the most spectacular fights of 2004. Trinidad was not fighting for over two years and in 2001 suffered its first defeat against Bernard Hopkins, while Mayorga, in 2004, had already fought once defeating the modest Eric Mitchell (first fight of Mayorga in the middleweight division). It is interesting to see the fight between Trinidad and Mayorga also because they have a completely different style of fighting, but in this case the technique will win. Watch the video!

Good Ole Classic!!
Mayorga showed some heart there :) Trinidad’s shoulders look underdeveloped compared to his opponents but they generate scary power :)
Watched this for the second time, just an awesome classic. Probably the toughest fight of Trinidad’s career which he won. Mayorga certainly made a name for himself with his toughness and not with his record. That is a respect mark from me. Records don’t mean much.
