by asking for 750000 k...ike is entitled to that,he is one of the biggest names at 154,former weltr champ,and most importantly willing to fight a great risk/low reward fighter like winky!!!!,by the way wright was offering him 150 k!!!! laughable...
Wright has had some big chances in his career, and at the end of the fight, he took his foot off the gas and cruised to a win.
I remember ever thinking at the end of Pac's fight with Barera on the replay of Jones Tarver 1, that Pac should not be right in front of MAB, but he was and he finished MAB which made him even bigger and led to more big fights down the line.
Wright does not have the personality inside the ring or outside the ring to put butts in the seats and get people to pay $50 to watch him.
This is good news to me, as it makes a Sturm-Wright fight that much more likely...and I hope like hell it comes off.
From a boxing purist standpoint, I'm dying to see that fight. It's simple, winner will be mandatory for Hopkins-Taylor II winner in almost all the alphabet groups...except IBF since they will have another champ by then (by the way, is that Soliman-Ikeke fight going to happen or what?).
Middleweight is alot better now than it has been in years.
you disrespectful little cunts. winky wrights pinky finger has more pull in the real world than any of you fuckheads.
learn to appreciate style and perfection rather than drool for a ko punch
I agree Winky should not be disrespecting Ike like that and let him gaid paid what he is due but this guy is right about the other aspect.
i agree winky has really gotten big headed since the trinidad fight ..boxing is a buisness first and he seems to forget this winky is a great boxer but his style does not appeal to the average fan so he is not a draw even if he fought trinidad again he would have to take less money because tito would still be the draw that is just how boxing works he allready managed to break off posible fights with oscar,pbf, and now quartey because he feels he should be getting more money or equal money against ike i understand but to offer him 150,000 he is really being a shithead ... against oscar or bpf he should of took what he was offered ...he is only hurting himself by being inactive if he keeps this up i can see him ending up like marquez for continuing to outprice himself ..

..That doesn't hold much weight, considering you're someone who lives by the KO.

winky is getting on my nerves, he brings nothing to the table... no fans, no draw, no money, etc... i could draw as many fans to an arena jerkin off as winky could fighting...
exactly...150 k is an insult!!!! quartey doesnt even have to fight winky,cause winky has no belts even though he is recognized as the cahmp,he can sit around waiting for an easier fight with the belt holders,but if he is willing to man up against winky,you have to show him the money,casue it might as well be ike´s last fight cause he has a good chance of losing against winky...
I hope Quartey can get another pay day before he retires. Beating Verno Phillips isn't easy; especially only fighting 1 come back fight. Winky's team is being crazy offering that kind of money to him. If that fight comes off it should be an interesting match up. Winky's gonna need more than his jab to beat Quartey
