Winky was Great !!! BUT....

If I take a risk and fight you then you have to take a risk and open it up a little bit...this makes no sense at all. opening yourself up and allowing the guy to hit you is just plain stupid. if you want pure entertainment go watch wrestling.

Wright's objective on saturday was to win, not to entertain. How long did it take for him to fight a big name in a big fight. it took him 7 years of fighting nobody's before he got his chance against Vargas in 99. He lost that and he then had to wait another 5 years until he got the opportunity to fight another big name in SSM ( he did win the IBF litgh middleweight title in 2001 but it wasn't a big fight). His two wins against Mosley increased his rep and without those wins he probably woudnt of have had the opportunity to fight tito and without the Tito win he probably woodnt be consideration to fight the winner of the hopkins v taylor fight. The point is, Wright has waited a long time for his chance and he's took it. He made 4million plus by beating Tito and now has the chance to make more by fighting the best. The job of a professional fighter is to win and i for one do not begrude Wright for not opening it up. I love a slugfest as much as the next guy but i also love it when boxers show there true boxing ability and class and thats exactly what wright did. It's not his fault that Tito had no answers for him

Ill give you that Winky is a boring fighter but why would you blame him for not opening up on Tito? Tito can changes fights with one punch. Zab opened up to get the KO against a nobody. Its not that good of a refrence.

Listen when you order a PPV nothing is guarenteed thats the risk you take. Anything can happen boxing... Yeah, that is definitely true. But it is the same for almost all of his fights.(BORING!) I am not downing the guy, but there is a reason why he has languished in obscurity. Most people would take a nap rather than watch his fights. If you want to appeal to only boxing purists then you will probably end up with a decent FridayNightFights audience. Very few people would pay to see him fight someone other than a marquee name... I see why folks don't want to fight him. If I take a risk and fight you then you have to take a risk and open it up a little bit... Zab boxed great but he opened it up to get the knockout!

I watched Winky vs Tito on saturday and it was a good fight. I was really cautious about spending that $50 bones considering it was just me and my girlfriend watching. The fight was actually boring. I don't know if you noticed but there were times in the fight where you could hear a pin drop in the audience. Who pays $50 to watch two fighters throw jabs. Sorry, It will not happen again. Props to Winky. His boxing style is great. Super Quick jab, Impenetrable Defense. But BORING... I think he wins against most if not all fighters he faces but I ain't paying $50 to see it NO MORE! Winky some advice. Open it up a bit!!! Commit to your punches and at least try to knock em out!!! Hahah, Winky made 4 million on the fight and with the W next to his name will come many more millions, do you think he cares what the people think about his style? As long as he gets the W, he won't care. Similiar to John Ruiz although John Ruiz is REALLY BORING and one dirty ass bitch. Plus, if your a true boxing fan, you'd appreciate Winky's style more. I just loved how he proves you don't need power to be great in boxing. :boxing:

The Problem is that Winky was the only one boxing. I am still trying to understand what Trinidad was doing. Yes 2 Boxers actually boxing, is good to watch. This was not the case on Saturday.true, trinidad was a walking heavy bag.

dunno about you guys, but i actually prefer to see 2 guys boxing instead of brawling. two boxers in a boxing match actually boxing, who knew :rolleyes:

Like I Said In One Of My Other Post, I Dont Really See Winky Being A "superstar" Because Of His Style, People Who Love Boxing As Much As Some Of The People On Here Do, Can Appreciate What Winky Does In The Ring. But The General Public Cant And Wont Pay To See It. For Example I Was Watching The Fight With About 8 Other Guys And Most Of Them Thought The Fight Was Boring And A Waste Of Time.
