If you think about it, Winky suffers from Hopkins syndrome. Getting your fame from beating 2 blown up welterweights while they were 160 all their lives. Winky wont be a man among boys fighting Taylor like he was against Tito and Mosley. Last time he fought a talent his size he lost to Vargas. Same with Hopkins, he lost to Taylor.. Now people say WInky is unbeatable.... my ass. I think Taylor would win on points. These guys Winky fight who cant break an egg(tito's power didnt translate well, hell it took 8 rounds of hitting Mayorga flush to KO him and we all know Mosleys power is a joke) but this time when Winky gets in his little peek a boo shell Taylors power will shatter it. Plus he is now fighting someone with a better jab than him, bigger than him, and stronger than him, more punching power than him. And just beat the p4p champ twice.

i think winky embarrasses the hell out of taylor. he would win a very lopsided decision. taylor has the power advantage and thats it. hes way to open and wright is more skilled overall then hopkins, and busier then hopkins. wright schools taylor all day.
Winky wins this fight if it ever happens imo. He is a very talented fighter and his skills are on another level to Taylor. No disrespect to Taylor intended as i think he is a good fighter but all he offers in this bout is power and i feel Winky would negate that.
Winky did't lose to Vargas it was a garbage descion and Winky more than hold his own against Lacy in training. I have Wright winning via another boxing leason and this isn't to take credit away from Taylor either.
I like your name, me too.

Watch the replay in slowmo. Taylor lands nothing. I thought he must have at least landed an arm shot, but that didn't happen. Hopkins is so twisted out of shape trying to avoid Taylor, that he's actually falling backward.
Give Taylor credit for applying enough pressure to make Hopkins dance, but don't credit him with anything in the landed" column. 'Cause it didn't happen.
Good call on Winky though. Taylor just won't be effective.
yeh ive got to ask my mate to send me the fight but you must be right about that as someone else commented on it as well.
winky's great defense will neutralize taylor's normally effective offence, and winky will do most of the scoring with his good jab.

Round two: Taylor sticks to his jab. Hopkins is rocked by a huge right hand.

Sturm couldn't even beat Oscar...
Even though he should of......
It was still reasonably close, and Oscar wasn't a true middleweight by any means.
u mean sturm wining 8-10 rounds in the fight is close?
Nah, if you have the fight on you computer watch it, and while it looks and sounds like it connects it doesn't. At the end of the round when they show the shot from another angle it hits Hopkins square between the shoulder blades on the back and it slides up grazing his head slightly. He wasn't stunned, simply knocked off balance.
But you're right about Winky.
i havent unfortunatley but ill dl it and have a closer look
no i wasnt being sarcastic i was just proving the other guys point that hopkins did get slightly stunned in r.2.

Pfffft, now I hope that is sarcasm.
Winky would with by a UD. It wouldn't be close. Somewhere around the lines of 9-3 or 8-4. Winky's defense is too good and Taylor is too green to find a way to penetrate it.

like i said earlier winky would put on a boxing masterclass and taylor wouldnt be able to connect as well against wrights great defence. wright would use his good jab to outpoint taylor for a relatively easy UD.

Another Very tough call..
My mind says Taylor, heart says Wright..
As far as boxing abilities, Wright clearly outboxed a boxer and humiliated a puncher..
fight goes either way, but if Wright wins.. it will be Wright by a comfortable margin
