• Welcome back, Felix Trinidad. I'm happy he is coming out of retirement, and I'm interested in his fight early next year against Roy Jones Jr. Sure, like many boxing fans, I would have loved (and preferred) for them to fight five or six years ago, but it didn't happen. Now, the High-Haired One, promoter Don King, is making it happen, and I say better late than never. You can say they are old (Jones is 38 and Trinidad is 34). You can say they are shot. But I say they're mature and a step slower than they once were. However you phrase it, at the end of the day, they are stars, which we don't have enough of in boxing, and when paired I think they make for a big event. I believe it will be an exciting fight with an electric atmosphere inside a jam-packed arena (probably Madison Square Garden) and that there will be a healthy pay-per-view audience turning to see the future Hall of Famers do their thing. What's wrong with that?
