It's such a tight fight to watch. The HBO commentary is hilarious... give it a rewatch or watch it for the first time. It's a fun watch.
sam soliman is an embaressment to boxers around the world.
Lol, is that why your idol fought him three times? It does go along with the rest of his career of fighting terrible fighters instead of fighting real challenges.
I thought it was a clear win for Winky but Soliman's awkwardness and workrate gave Winky more troubles than expected.
I think this was the first fight that we started to see Winky slip. It's not so much that the volume gave him real trouble, it was more that the Winky guard started to let punches through, which was the reason he didn't clearly win his next fight against Jermain Taylor. Had Taylor's punches not split the guard so much, that would have been a clear Winky win.
i did not see it, when was it? do you have a youtube clip or something?

End of 2005. Soliman was just thrown 100 punches a round, lookin sloppy as hell. But he landed a lot and gave Winky way more of a fight than he was supposed to. If he had any power Winky coulda been hurt. That fight was actually pretty fukkin good. I might watch it after work.
