In the fifth Trinidad displayed control of the offense's tempo injuring Mayorga and opening a cut under one of his eyes.<ref name="Mayorga"/> This pattern continued in the sixth and seventh round, and the cut on Mayorga's face began to swell. In the eight round Trinidad scored several knockdowns, Mayorga continued after two knockdowns, but lost by technical knockout following a third knockdown.<ref name="Mayorga"/> ====Trinidad vs. Wright==== {{Main|Félix Trinidad vs. Winky Wright}} On May 14, 2005, Trinidad competed against [[Winky Wright]], in a fight where the winner would become the World Boxing Council's number one challenger in the Middleweight division.
