View Full Version : Winky is scared of Tito
Saint3605 01-06-2005, 03:12 AM After Winky beat Mosley, we all heard him call out Trinidad. He got his chance. When he was offered the fight he was offered 3 million, he said he wanted atleast 4 million. After some time Wright was offered 4 million. Now 4 million isn't enough and he doesn't want to fight in March. Time after time Winky comes up with an excuse. 4 million is more than he has ever seen before. If he's not scared, please tell me what I'm missing here.

We'll I think I have to agree...although I find it strange from Winky, I always had the feeling he was a true warrior in his heart (altough not in the ring)
The risk is high, but so is the reward so WTF :confused:
Marjoh 01-06-2005, 08:10 AM I think he wants an insurance. Because this is a big risk for him. If Tito beats him, it would take awhile for him to get back at the top, but at least he has a good amount of money along the way. And a Wright-Trinidad is a good place to fish. That's the power of money.
But yes, if he was so confident of beating Tito, then I don't see any reason not to take the fight. Because he would probably make a lot more money next time if he wins.
PRboxingfan 01-06-2005, 08:26 AM Even if he loses to Tito he still has his 154 belts and will still be recognized as the Undisputed Jr. Middleweight Champ by everyone so he has nothing really to lose and $4M to gain. He's an idiot, IMHO.

Winky Wright is greedy it that simple, after beating Mosley he thinks he is worth loads of money but hes not. If they fight people going to order the pay per view to see Trinidad not Winky Wright. I think he is scared on top of that because how is 4 million not good enough? I think he just wants no part of Tito so he is going to make excuse after excuse.
SalvaDominicano 01-06-2005, 09:35 AM winky is def afraid of tito. theres no way he can win. he doesnt move and he fights coming forward. tito would have a field day with him and put him away like yesterdays trash. not saying winky is trash but he has no chance with a banger like tito.
Even if he loses to Tito he still has his 154 belts and will still be recognized as the Undisputed Jr. Middleweight Champ by everyone so he has nothing really to lose and $4M to gain. He's an idiot, IMHO.
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome baaaaaaaack. Whats goings onz man? ey, i think that winky is the kind of fighter that all the sanctioning bodies will **** on if he goes on to fight at 160lbs and strip him of his belts, just my gut feeling. but yeah, def, the concensus is that hes afraid.
jswa17 01-06-2005, 09:51 AM I think he's greedy but not afraid...there's no way Winky can hurt Tito so my bet would be on Tito based on his punching power.
Kornhusker 01-06-2005, 10:48 AM Winky doesn't really want Tito. I think he has got so used to being passed over by the top guys that he doesn't know what to do now that somebody wants to fight him.

Good point
Chups 01-06-2005, 11:15 AM Isn't Marquez doing the same thing to Pacman?
i actually think that he thinks that he is worth more than he really is. if i was trinidad i would tell him to fight someone less and see if he gets over a million let alone 3 or 4. his belts mean **** at 160 and no one would ever really pay to see him on ppv so i would just tell him to shut the **** up. well and i think hes scared to.
borikua 01-06-2005, 12:13 PM "They got money to pay everybody else what they want," Wright said of HBO, King and all the others involved in the negotiations. "But for us, we can't seem to get everything right. They keep trying to play down my notoriety. But I feel I'm known way more than they're giving me credit for. Boxing fans know me and regular fans are starting to know me now. They don't want to pay me like a star, but that's what I am. So pay me like you're supposed to pay me."
Truth 01-06-2005, 12:15 PM You know they should just give the 5 million and shut his mouth, watch when they offer 5 Winky will say 6 million is what he was looking for. :D
whoever started this topic is a idiot...wright has been calling out trinidad for years...and their isnt a fighter in boxing..thats scared of another fighter in his same weight class
Miguel Cotto X 23 01-06-2005, 01:03 PM Winky is scared he will get a tko from trinidad if he get to the ring.
Chups 01-06-2005, 01:06 PM whoever started this topic is a idiot...wright has been calling out trinidad for years...and their isnt a fighter in boxing..thats scared of another fighter in his same weight class
I can only name a few fighters who fought the best in their weight class.
tracylee 01-06-2005, 01:09 PM Well, if Winky is scared of Tito, then I have to say I dont blame him..hell, I'm scared of him too after what he did to Mayorga! :eek: I love watching him fight, but cant really blame many of these guys that dont want in there with him!
tracylee 01-06-2005, 01:10 PM You know they should just give the 5 million and shut his mouth, watch when they offer 5 Winky will say 6 million is what he was looking for. :D
I agree..offer him the 5 mil and see what he say's then! ;)
Mr. Ryan 01-06-2005, 01:19 PM Winky is cashing in the chips. His 2 wins over Mosley look alot better than they really were. Lets see him do that to Trinidad, and then maybe I'll give him credit. He's never looked very impressive to me.
marvdave 01-06-2005, 01:46 PM Wright might be a little full of himself here. I like Winky and all, but Tito is the draw, not Winky. There is a reason his fights are not ppv. He better take the money while he can get it. 15 minutes goes by awfully fast. Tito doesn't need Wright, he is doing him a favor by offering a payday. It might be his only chance. DLH won't fight Winky becuase of the styles and Hopkins gains nothing by fighting Winky.

winky, is that you? just sign the contract you little ***** and there wont be these types of threads about you.
Kornhusker 01-06-2005, 02:00 PM I thought I read somewhere that Winky had filed for bankruptcy recently. Do any of you guys remember seeing that?
jack_the_rippuh 01-06-2005, 03:59 PM To be honest, I think Winky is afraid to Fernando Vargas, and after seeing what that little ***** Tito Trinidad did to Vargas, he's scared ****less of Tito the *****..
Winky is a ***** and Tito is a *****..

you're such a homesexual jack_ripmy_ass
louscapps 01-06-2005, 05:33 PM I agree with most however don't underestimate a slick southpaw... Cory spinks has been outmatched three of his last four fights if I can get odds, and I am talkin five, six to one I will take a flyer. I am still not that convinced that Tito can beat a good boxer
Saint3605 01-06-2005, 08:02 PM whoever started this topic is a idiot...wright has been calling out trinidad for years...and their isnt a fighter in boxing..thats scared of another fighter in his same weight class
So if he's not scared, then tell me what is the reason for all the excuses not to fight Tito?
Saint3605 01-06-2005, 08:02 PM winky, is that you? just sign the contract you little ***** and there wont be these types of threads about you.
LOL, if I could give Karma, it would be 2 u
chito 01-06-2005, 09:54 PM So if he's not scared, then tell me what is the reason for all the excuses not to fight Tito?
it's money, he wants more money!
Saint3605 01-06-2005, 10:54 PM it's money, he wants more money!
4 million is twice as much as he has ever made before in his life. If he doesn't take this fight, you think he will make anything close to that in another fight? Hell no. The real reason is he is scared.
Miguel Cotto X 23 01-06-2005, 10:58 PM He wants to get more $ to secure his life because Trinidad will whoop him............
chito 01-07-2005, 12:57 AM 4 million is twice as much as he has ever made before in his life. If he doesn't take this fight, you think he will make anything close to that in another fight? Hell no. The real reason is he is scared.
i don't know, maybe that's a long time ago, he is a recognized fighter now, now that he has beaten mosely twice. people can get greedy over money you know that. and if he's scared do you think he'll let the people know. sure he would like to fight the best fighter in his category the problem is, for how much (and he's the only one who knows).

People do get greedy, you're right, but if he doesnt take this fight 4 million dollars, chances are he won't get another offer like that again, and he'll be fighting for just enough money to supersize his next meal at Mcdonalds, and thats about it.
SweetScience 01-07-2005, 01:53 AM Is Winky promoted by Frank Warren?
Dark Destroyer 01-07-2005, 07:24 AM I wouldn't be shocked to hear that Winky was scared of Tito. The sad thing is i cannot even imagine Winky beating Tito on points. Tito is just a monster through and through.
Miguel Cotto X 23 01-07-2005, 08:04 AM I dont really see him wining sooner or later Trinidad will Ko Him.
