Jones vs Trinidad Boxing Odds
 On Saturday, Jan. 19, 2008 the pair will go toe-to-toe on 26 January, 2008 Madison Square Garden, New York.
Trinidad is the greatest and most revered fighter ever from the boxing-crazed island of Puerto Rico. He was named the BWAA Fighter of the Year in 2000 and in that same year participated in the BWAA and USA Today Fight of the Year when he knocked out then-undefeated “Ferocious” Fernando Vargas.
 Here is a list of vanquished star boxers: Maurice Blocker (34-3); Hector “Macho” Camacho (43-2); “Yory Boy” Campas (56-0); Oba Carr (32-0); Freddie Pendleton (40-20-4); Pernell Whitaker (40-2-1); Hugo Pineda (36-1-1); Oscar De La Hoya (31-0); Fernando Vargas (20-0); William Joppy (32-1-1); and Ricardo “El Matador” Mayorga (27-4-1).
Trinidad is a former welterweight, light-middleweight and middleweight champion but he quit the ring in 2002 just under nine months after suffering his first defeat - a 12th-round stoppage by Bernard Hopkins.
The Puerto Rican idol returned in October, 2004 and knocked out Ricardo Mayorga to win the vacant NABC title, only to walk away from the sport once more following his unanimous points defeat by Ronald 'Winky' Wright.
His return, at 34, seems ill-advised but he is threatening to knock out Jones, who, like Trinidad is no longer the fighter he once was.
Jones, meanwhile, is currently in the process of rebuilding his career and has won his last two fights at light-heavyweight after suffering three straight defeats at the hands of Antonio Tarver (twice) and Glen Johnson. Jones weighed in at 175lbs for his most recent fight, against Anthony Hanshaw, but Trinidad has never fought above 160.
The list of top-name fighters Jones has defeated reads like a Who’s Who and is even more impressive when one considers the opponents’ records going into the matches:
Bernard “The Executioner” Hopkins (22-1); Thomas Tate (29-2); James “Lights Out” Toney (44-0-2); Vinny Pazineza (40-5); Eric Lucas (19-2-2); Mike “The Body Snatcher” McCallum (49-3-1); Montell Griffin (27-0); Virgil “Quicksilver” Hill (43-2); Lou Del Valle (27-1); Otis Grant (31-1-1); Reggie Johnson (39-5-1); Julio Cesar Gonzalez (27-0); Clinton Woods (32-1); John Ruiz (38-4-1); and Antonio Tarver (21-1).
Jones vs Trinidad Results
JONES OVERCOMES TRINIDAD
 Roy Jones Jnr won the battle of the fading giants at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night, beating Felix Trinidad with a unanimous points decision.
Jones, the dominant force of the 1990s but at 39 long past his best, still had too much hand speed and power for the smaller Trinidad, who at 170 was boxing 10lbs above his last fighting weight.
The Puerto Rican hero survived knockdowns in the seventh and 10th rounds to see the final bell but Jones was a decisive winner by 117-109 and 116-110 twice.
