Psychological warfare.

Yeah but that did nothing except make PR's hate the US for a little while.:lol:

Hopkins said his intent was to make Trinidad angry, as "an angry fighter makes mistakes".

Tito makes enough mistakes anyway for a fighter as smart and crafty as Hopkins, maybe the act made Tito even worse in this regard.

I think Hopkins was still pissed about Tito calling for "Paz para Vieques".

Whats that mean ?:dunno:

Peace for Vieques...they were protests about the U.S. Navy's use of land.

"Tito lost because he was angry" - Erratic

yeah i was gonna say, PR's already weren't very fond of the US at the time (hence, booing the national anthem prior to Tito-Joppy, though that singer was terrible) for that very reason. Hopkins' doing what he did poured gas on the fire, but not what ignited it.

"Tito lost because he was angry" - Erratic
"Jake made his worst prediction ever based on anger" - :doh:

[Tyler Durden]

I wonder if Roy will thrown down the flag.

I wonder if another terrorist attack will happen and make Tito lose again :popcorn:

[Mitchell Kane]

I wonder if another terrorist attack will happen and make Tito lose again :popcorn:

You mean another fighter making him re-wrap his hands?

Flag incident all SYMBOLIC.

Tito=Puerto Rico.

By throwing down the flag, Hopkins was throwing down Tito, knowing how wrapped up he was in the flag.

Crying incident all SYMBOLIC

Freitas=crying bitch

By crying after easy wins, Freitas was putting the world on notice that he was emotional and couldn't handle challenges.

Not saying it was the RIGHT or smart thing to do. Disrespect the 51st state. But that was probably his thinking. I'll disrespect Puerto Rico or Tito, SAME thing. He had to run for his life though after he did it.

Notice how I IGNORE the way off base analogy. Freitas is a thing of the past that had NOTHING to do with a great middleweight unification fight. HISTORIC in fact.

Moving on...Chavez Jr, Tarver, Forrest this weekend. Hatton, Mayweather next weekend. Life is good....
