  • Where did you have Winky Wright ranked P4P

    In 07 before the Hopkins fight
    and
    In 06 before the Jermain Taylor fight

    I thought he was one of the best I don't pay to much attention to p4p though. I thought he beat Taylor and Hopkins also.

      Interesting.A valid argument can be made for him beating Taylor (i actually scored it for winky) but i thought hopkins clearly edged him in a very ugly fight

        It was my impression that he out pointed Hopkins but It was a while back and I have not watched it again. I remember Hopkins doing a lot of holding but I thought Winky out boxed him.

            I think Hopkins is a very strategic manipulative person. He is capable of making it look like he wins rounds when he does not.

                Hopkins beat Winky just by the way he beat him up without throwing punches, so I don't have a problem with Winky losing that fight.

                I definitely think Winky beat Taylor, though it was close enough I won't overly complain about the draw.

                Winky leading up to that Taylor fight was top 5 p4p IMO.

                  So assuming you every thinks he beat Taylor, in July 2007 before the Hopkins fight where would Winky fit among:

                  Hopkins
                  Mayweather
                  Pacquiao
                  Marquez

                    I don't really understand your point. "Winning rounds" is subjective, so if it looks like he won a round to you, he did. He might get out-worked and out-landed, but if you think his aggression was more effective, he wins. Now his strategy and tactics are very effective at blunting his opponent's aggression. I think that that ability can cost him rounds that he might think he won and I might think he won. A lot of people just scored aggressiveness, not effective aggressiveness.
