El púgil boricua hizo su regreso al cuadrilátero en enero pasado luego de un retiro de más de tres años para enfrentarse al estadounidense Roy Jones, hijo.
Jones se alzó con el triunfo por decisión unánime al dominar ampliamente a Trinidad, quien cayó en dos ocasiones a la lona.
Taylor, por su parte, no es un desconocido en el boxeo, pues el 16 de junio del 2005 le arrebató cuatro correas de campeonato de la división mediana a su compatriota y veterano Bernard Hopkins, quien le propinó a Trinidad su primera derrota en su carrera en el 2001.
Dos años después de su triunfo ante Hopkins, Taylor, de 29 años, falló en defender sus títulos ante el estadounidense Kelly Pavlik, quien lo venció por nocaut fuera de combate en el séptimo asalto, quitándole así su invicto.

Taylor y Pavlik se enfrentaron nuevamente el 16 de febrero de este año en una pelea de revancha, donde el segundo nuevamente le ofreció la segunda derrota a su contrincante al vencerlo por decisión unánime.
Según información publicada en endi.com, la idea parece ser vencer a Taylor,
quien ha sufrido dos derrotas consecutivas ante Kelly Pavlik, para entonces medirse al ganador del combate que se dará entre
Bernard Hopkins y Joe Calzaghe el 19 de abril.
Esto fue lo que se habló en una reunión sostenida en un hotel en Puerto Rico entre Félix Trinidad Rodríguez, padre de Tito, y el polémico promotor Don King.
La última vez que estos dos unieron esfuerzos, nos dieron
Trinidad vs. Roy Jones, un engendro de pelea en las 170 libras que dejó a muchos fanáticos boricuas pidiendo el retiro definitivo del orgullo de Barrio Caimito.
Blog: Trinidad vs. Jones Jr. fue un absurdo¿Y quién dijo que viajar a través del tiempo es imposible? Según la nota de
El Nuevo Día, el padre de Tito piensa que una revancha con Hopkins es el mejor escenario después de Trinidad vs. Taylor.
Hopkins le quitó el invicto y las correas de campeón a Tito el 29 de septiembre de 2001. Curiosamente, Jermain Taylor es el único boxeador que ha vencido a Hopkins dos veces, lo cual logró en julio y diciembre de 2005.
¿Crees que Tito debe volver al ring?
