Elaborate...
I dunno, I can just tell these things. He is getting hit a lot more than I have ever seen him. In fact, he had been getting hit a lot against guys like Candelo before but when he started facing smaller guys like Mosley and Trinidad who come straight forward, he was able to neutralize them. It's been about genius matchmaking, and even then he was just getting fed old fighters.
2007 will bring the end of the Winky Wright show to be real with you. Judah is the best southpaw of all of these guys, to be honest. I just didn't want to say that.
No doubt playa...Zab is my boy but until he gets his shit together I'm not fooling with him..He has let me down to often a a dear fan....
Yeah dude im with u on that. His chin sucks but more so than that its his focus that lets him down! He has had a good career but its been a let down, for me anyway, i thought this guy was gonna go ALL the way! :pat:
He could survive with his chin like that, everyone knows that guys like Lewis and Wilfredo Gomez overcame that deficit. Why? Because they had the professionalism and mental makeup to deal with that sort of thing.
Talent-wise, I think he may be a better boxer. By that, I mean that he understands the principles and has the basic functions of a boxer to maximize his effectiveness. Of course, that means nothing if you don't have it upstairs.

Im in agreement with both those points, Judah knows and uses the southpaw stance to better use than the rest. Duznt, at least not to me, mean he's a better fighter tho

Perhaps Calzaghe or Judah, they are true traditional southpaws who understand the weaknesses and strengths of being a left handed fighter. Winky and Byrd just do what they do, and Pacquiao is just a slugger with phenomenal athleticism, but doesnt truly understand being a southpaw except that he knows he hits hard with his left than other people do.
At his best I guess Calzaghe would be the most complete, decent power, fast, strong and has a good defence.
Winky isn't a complete fighter because he just doesn't have the power to hurt top class fighters, though he is a defensive master and a very tricky southpaw indeed.
Pac is just Pac, a wrecking ball of a fighter with increasingly good technique and ring smarts.
Calzaghe is the most naturally talented, although Judah might have something to say about that. But the most 'complete', it's kind of close between Pacquiao and Wright because each have their different strengths and (albeit few) weaknesses.
I agree about calzghe but he tends to ge very sloppy when allowed ..its almost like he fights down to his competition
DOn't get me wrong Pac and Winky would be atop this list if it was best fighters. But the list is for most complete fighters. WInky lacks power and Pacman lacks proper footwork and defense.
Wink and Pac are clearly the best of the bunch but Pac duznt really use the southpaw stance to his advantage, he's just a hurricane! I think the fighter who benifits the most from being a southpaw tho would be Judah
I think if Calzaghe beats Manfredo Jr then either Hopkins/Taylor/Winky/Kessler at some point later in the year he will easily be #1 on this list. I just hope it happens.
Pacquiao is the one dimensional bum that just shoots rights and lefts. Don't tell me you think hes 'complete'
I can't believe you can call Manny a bum but love Audley the way you do, i just dont get it??
Anyway....I like Calzaghe, Just love to watch him fight but id say Winky is the most complete.
