The world's best 154-pound boxer, Winky Wright, who has never been knocked out, moves up to middleweight to battle one of the best knockout artists ever in Puerto Rican superstar, Felix Trinidad at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on Saturday, May 14.

Both combatants can credibly argue being the hottest boxer in the sport today. Three-time world champion, Felix "Tito" Trinidad emerged from a 29-month retirement to electrify a packed house at New York's Madison Square Garden, and the second-highest pay-per-view audience of the year, with a slugfest against former unified welterweight champion, Ricardo Mayorga in October 2004, which Trinidad won with a spectacular eighth-round technical knockout.

Ronald "Winky" Wright defeated the gifted "Sugar" Shane Mosley to become the undisputed 154-pound world champion in March 2004, and beat him again in an immediate rematch the following November, which catapulted him into the top five in "pound-for-pound" best boxer in the world lists. Wright has also not lost a match in over five years.

Wright (48-3, 25 KO's) from St. Petersburg, Florida is a southpaw known for his all-around boxing abilities, who has been avoided by big-name oppponents fearing his pugilistic prowess. The first boxing star to agree to face Wright was then-undefeated Fernando Vargas in 1999, who had knocked out every opponent he had faced, seventeen in all. Wright was the sharper puncher and boxer throughout much of the fight, and although many at ringside felt he won, Vargas slipped by with a majority decision win.

Trinidad (42-1, 35 KO's) has earned his status in large measure by never having walked away from a good fight, as evidenced by a seemingly endless of tough opponents since 1999 including Pernell Whitaker, Oscar De La Hoya, David Reid, Fernando Vargas, William Joppy, Bernard Hopkins and Mayorga. The question is, will Trinidad by "Wright" or wrong in agreeing to face Winky.

"While many boxers avoid tough fights, Tito Trinidad always wants to fight the best," said promoter, Don King. "Tito has proven yet again he has the heart of a lion by agreeing to face the great world champion, Winky Wright.

"Trinidad vs Wright is an intriguing matchup between two elite fighters who continually seek out the biggest challenges," said Mark Taffet, HBO Senior Vice President of Sports Operations and Pay Per View. "Boxing fans always appreciate it when the best face the best."
