It was reported by the John C. Cotey of the St. Petersburg Times that Bernard Hopkins and Winky Wright have come agreed to fight at a catch-weight of 170-pounds, on July 21, on HBO pay-per-view. details]
yes, and he will beat Hopkins.....i pray for it!!!!!
I "like" Hopkins but i still think he has always looked to achieve glory the easist way, i thought that would change when he actually fought someone who really was a threat for him in Tarver, but now he comes and signs a fight with another outsized opponent, well at least he didnt avenge his loss to Roy Jones, becuase if he wouldve fought Roy and beat him, all Roy haters would say Hopkins is better even though Roy is shot....
il only order it if it has an EXCELLENT undercard, b/c the main event is gonna be boring as hell
i highly doubt that. Just my opinion.
Its not gonna be FOTY, but you wont be totally bored.
Both guys enjoy coming forward at times, and the fight could heat up down the stretch.
I think Winky is getting hit more. But that is due to him opening up more and throwing more punches. Quartey was hitting Wink quite a bit but Winky still covered up when he needed to. I don't think this fight willl be boring. And I'm gonna see it PPV or not.
gotta see this for sure!
wright will be outsized outboxed and hopefully hopkins will turn it on and KO him. Then he should really retire, probably Winky too unless he goes back to 154 to fight DLH ( who he would probably kill)
^ ^ ^
hahaa...oh shit, did he say winky by KO?...unless ur a fast heavyweight or B-Hop turns 50, there is no way anybody is KOing hopkins...a great defense with an iron chin behind it...no way..
HOPKINS can be sloppy an awkward against a lot of styles, But Winky Wright makes it look easy. He is a brilliant tactitionist for sure.
Again, this is gonna be an okay fight. Definetly wont be the worst fight of the year. far from it. Its not gonna have great action, or even good action, but it'll be nice and solid and i predict the championship rounds will be very exciting and have some very good action.
WINKY WRIGHT KO11
hahahahahahahahahahaa get the get the fuck outa here
this is gonna be a boring fight..but i wouldnt mind seeing it hell its free in the philippines! but at 170 lbs can my main man winky handle that weight? im not even sure if hes comfortable at 160 lbs.. but im rooting for winky alll the way..
I think Winky is getting hit more. But that is due to him opening up more and throwing more punches. Quartey was hitting Wink quite a bit but Winky still covered up when he needed to. I don't think this fight willl be boring. And I'm gonna see it PPV or not.
good post. i definetly agree.
As long as hopkins doesnt clinch to much, i cant see WRIGHTs new style in a BORING fight.
it'll be okay, and im really looking forward to it no matter how it turns out
