In May 1993, he faced Maurice Blocker, and Felix Trinidad won by knockout in just two rounds. That victory over Maurice Blocker also earned him the IBF Welterweight Championship.

Felix Trinidad fought for the first time in Las Vegas in January 1994, defeating fellow countryman Hector Camacho by unanimous decision.
