After the stellar performance put on by Cotto I'm curious to see how members think this match up plays out. Remember Shane gave Winky a run for his money in the rematch. I say Wright takes it using his Jab to keep Cotto at bay.
Vote, and discuss.
winky by UD. all winky has to do is throw alot like he does , jab alot like he does , and block alot like he does. its a pretty much easy win for wright
why is this poll not public???i would laugh my ass off @ the fools who think Cotto has a shot at being competitive with Winkster...
I guess I didn't click the right box?
IF the fight happens within the next year and a half or so, Winky by UD, no doubt. But it would be silly for Cotto to move out of boxing's most talented division right now.
First, no way in hell that Winky makes 154.
Regardless, Winky UDs Cotto. Same old story: block, block, block, block, block, counterpunch. Repeat 100,000 times.
I think Winky can still make the 154 pound limit if he had to. He was saying he'd even fight at 147 for an Oscar fight.(I don't see him being able to go to that extreme.) Wright looked way too heavy at 170. When he fought Taylor he looked as if he might be able to drain an extra six pounds off. I'm not saying he can make the weight 100% no doubt, but its very possible.
Winky cannot make 154, and will never fight there again. This fight will never happen.
It would be interesting to see but it's not going to happen. I would love it if it did though.

I remember watching the fitght saying damn, Cotto looks about as fast as Shane. He out jabed shane despite giving a big reach advantage, and speed suposedly. Cotto also boxed well in the fight. It even surprised Shane.
he's just smooth,with very good hand speed,he doesn't need to dart in an out,he is very economical with his punches.he's a very subtle mover.
and ztrac your right cotto actually showed the versatility he had before he became known as a slugger.

In all honesty I wouldn't even post this before the Mosley fight last Saturday. But after the performance by Cotto I thought it would be worth asking.
Tito's main problem with Winky was that he allowed Winky to wear giantic gloves and was constantly punching Winky's gloves instead of waiting for him to throw and attack first. Cotto MUST NOT USE SAME STRATEGY TO HAVE A SHOT.
tito's problem was that he let winky dictate the fight,you let winky do that he will.tito need to let his hands go instead of spacing out with lean back playing in his head,doing his best bobblehead impersonation.
His style is too come forward and presuure you with jabs......its up to the other fighter to make it a fight with winky....Taylor, Vargas, Mosley banged with Winky and they were all exciting fights.......Winky just gets the balme because of the Tito fight and his reputation before being famous......Hopkins made that fight a stinker by running, clinching and fouling...
I agree for the most part. I wish he would of been a little more agressive and tried to close the show against Tito. I think he might have been able to stop him.
