<a  href="http://blog.themavenreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/jones_trinidad232.jpg" title="Roy Jones Jr., Felix Trinidad, &amp; Don King" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/downloads/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/jones_trinidad232.jpg');" ><img src="http://blog.themavenreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/jones_trinidad232.jpg" alt="Roy Jones Jr., Felix Trinidad, &amp; Don King" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Promoter Don King and his boxers Felix &#8220;Tito&#8221; Trinidad and Roy Jones Jr. &#8212; who will meet in a huge match staged at Madison Square Garden on Jan. 19 &#8212; have teamed with Susan G. Komen for the Cure to help educate and raise awareness regarding the deadly disease.</p>
<p><span id="more-1180"></span></p>
<p>Trinidad and Jones have agreed to donate $50,000 each to Komen for the Cure from their upcoming &#8220;Bring on the Titans&#8221; boxing event.</p>
<p>Both fighters were at a press conference in Puerto Rico on Dec. 6 promoting the upcoming match when Carlos Barba, a former Telemundo and Univision television executive and current founder of Spanish-language network CaribeVision Station Group, made an announcement that he would make a $1 million contribution to the organization.</p>
<p>Don King said:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;My good friend Carlos Barba heard that Felix, Roy and I are doing our part to help KO cancer and he was moved to make a large donation. Like so many others, his family has been impacted by cancer and he wanted to continue his fight against it. He couldn&#8217;t have picked a better organization than the good people at Komen for the Cure, and I am sure my friends at Madison Square Garden and HBO will be joining this magnanimous effort.&#8221;
</p></blockquote>
<p>Jones encouraged King to join with him in this cause after participating in a fundraising walkathon during October in his hometown of Pensacola, Fla.</p>
<p>Roy Jones said:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I mentioned to Don that we should try to do something to help, and like everything else he has taken the ball and is running with it. I&#8217;m so happy to be able to help in any way I can to KO cancer. This is a fight that will never end until we conquer this disease that has taken so much from so many.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>The Trinidad vs. Jones &#8220;Bring on the Titans&#8221; domestic pay-per-view telecast will begin at 9 pm ET/6 pm PT on Jan. 19 and is being produced and distributed by HBO Pay-Per-View.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span id="BlogText" class="bloglist-content-text">Thankfully, Floyd Mayweather Jr. is better in the ring than on the dance floor.</span></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what he had to say during his post-fight interview:</p>
<p><span id="more-664"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>“What else is there for me to prove? I’ve beaten so many champions. I’ve beaten the brawlers and the boxers. And I can beat them at their own game, that’s the difference. I said I would fight him inside and I did. I knew he was going to get dirty and I had to do the same. There’s only one Mayweather. There’s only one Mayweather. He talks the talk, and he walks the walk, walking to the money land.”</p></blockquote>
<p><span id="BlogText" class="bloglist-content-text">The who&#8217;s who of Hollywood was in sin city saturday night to see the Mayweather vs. Hatton boxing match at the MGM Grand Hotel.</span></p>
<p>If you were rich enough to score tickets to the match, you might have seen Tiger Woods, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, David Beckham, Denzel Washington, Kid Rock, Gwen Stefani, Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis, Lennox Lewis, Sugar Ray Leonard, Will Ferrell  and many more in the audience.</p>
