Who thinks winky is overpricing himself. I dont think he will ever be a big draw ever but he keeps turning down fights because he believes he is. Who do you think will fight winky thats a big name for a 50/50 purse.
Dude he wins that is all that matters meaning people need to give him at least an equal share depending on who it is.The guy deserves respect he is a great BOXER which is what the sport is called even though yes we all want to see the big KO but true fight fans can handle watching a good technical boxer alot of people must wish they could be that good too.
If he is so good, You should pay £100 to watch each of his fights on PPV. Him against Bernard "boring" Hopkins would turn people off boxing
Some of you people seem to think Floyd is a huge draw... to who? To boxing fans, and boxing fans would still like to see Winky fight a lot too. Random sports fan still hardly know who Floyd Mayweather is, so don't pretend like he's going to bring in big PPV numbers on his own. Floyd vs Winky should be 50/50, but at worst if need be it could be 60/40, even though I think he deserved and has earned a split.
winky just needs to fight more and be more "exciting" to the public. me personally i like watching technicians, i think that is just as exciting to watch someone take apart another fighter tactically. but if winky would get some ko's in his next couple of fights or knock down some dudes, he'll be worth what is considered a Big Money Draw. it's also how he is promoted too, they really don't try to hype him up like they do a lot of other fighters, i.e. Klitchko's, peters, cotto, hatton, etc. there isnt any real buzz around his name other than he's a excellent fighter, with great defense and the risk isnt worth the reward in fighting him. why risk losing, trinidad found out the hard way, winky fucked up some serious cash for him......

==================
Let's put it this way sonny, Winky was more interested in winning a fight than hurting Tito. Only one fighter ever KOed Tito and that was an all time great, so that tells me your analysis is soft, not Tito's chin.
Winky's last 6 fights over the past 3 yrs have been against fighters who average a record of 39-3 with a half a KO loss between the bunch. Three of those fights were against future HOF fighters. I never stated that Winky was a powerhouse, but he can apply power when needed and obviously he ain't needed to apply it lately, pitching shutouts in all his recent fights. His jab is power enough which a true connoisseur appreciates.
it doesnt matter if your a great fighter alot of the times it matters on how exciting you are Ex Tyson,Gatti,Naseem and Manny all attract a crowd because of there style of boxing
I know enough about Winky son. If he's so vicious then who is the last man he KO??? He's a great defensive fighter, he covers his body & face. He won just about every round against Tito, but he never hurt him once. That tells you that his power isn't that great.
I agree. Winky Wright aint known fo his aggressiveness much so his power. I believe he is one of ta weakest puncher's in boxing right now. He couldn't KO a naturally much smaller Shane Mosely. He coulnt even drop Trinidad who is known to have a pretty soft chin.

Why don't you admit you know nothing of Winky. He has fine power when he wants to use it and a vicious inside arsenal. He took a cautious technical approach from the outside against two sluggers Mosely and Tito and dominated. Sturm is not a slugging threat so Wink would loosen up his style.
Now this could be true too.Good point...more good K but it won't let me.

LOL it would figure......ya know.Who knows I guess thats why we watch at all right.
The fucked up thing would be is everyone would say ahhh fuck I am not buying/watching that shit and both fights would end in Huge KOs.LOL I know I am dreaming Ruiz is the worst boring fighter by far though easy.

That fight may have the potiental to be as boring as any john ruiz fight. Imagine a hbo card with Strum vs. Winky and Ruiz vs. Anyone.

Great defense yes. But his skills are OK. You have to admit that his fights are pretty boring. Just imagine if he fights Sturm, I think this fight may turn out to be the most boring fight in history. We have 2 jabbers with not much power going at it.

Winky/Sturm would be boring no doubt but it is nice to see a guy go out and just technically eat someone alive from time to time at least he don't fight every 3 months or nothing.LOL
He may be one of the most talented boxers out there right now but no one would buy a ppv with him unless he was fighting a mayweather, oscar hopkins or Taylor figure. The second mosley fight wasnt even a ppv and look at the bum mosley jus had on ppv last week. He did have alil help with mab on the card but the point is no one has a real desire to see him fight which means he is no draw to the public which means he should stop thinking he is going to get any 50/50 purse with one of those. Turning down any amount of money fighting oscar was jus retarded because he is the biggest moneymaker in boxing. he should be lucky to get the 6 or so they was offering him

No grade in college heh? Sure nuff hoss, in U of Glue. Winky had a belt when Floyd turned him down, sure nuff, and Wink was the Ring champ and the lineal champ and the undisputed champ who was stripped because of politics and probably woulda been stripped anyway for fighting a runt like Floyd.
If he fight for the belts then he doesn't deserves 50/50, also if Mayweather comes to 154 he deserves to get 60/40. Yea if Winky fights everyone else then he deserves a 50/50. Also many people don't really enjoy watching Winky, he has a boring style to him. I personally don't get excited watching Winky fights, he's a talented fighter but he put me to sleep during the Tito fight.
you must not enjoy a boxer showing excellence in execution.Boring maybe...brilliant and skillfull yes.
