    His fight vs. Bika was just a Boxing After Dark, but they're obviously promoting him.

    Maybe in anticipation of promoting the fight vs. Hopkins?

    Anyway - Taylor beat Hopkins the first time, lost the second time, and Winky beat him IMO
    Really?I think he did better the second fight.......

      Hopkins thinks Taylor beat Wright
      Well true or not it doesn't really matter. That's just his opinion and him being a figure in the ring doesn't mean that what ever he says is correct.

      Damn, he even thinks he won and was robbed against JT.

        Pernell vs Chavez was a robbery, how the **** is this fight a robbery if you can debate that taylor actually won. Winky is a *****, he didn't dominate the fight. If he would have won, it would have been like 115-114, yeah not exactly a convincing way to win a fight. You had the chance to take the 12th round and u blew it.

        If i was winky, i would target carnera and take his paper belt, fighting abraham is a risk cuz he's one of those bitches that wont fight out of his country and make sure the judges are on his side.

          The thing I will never understand is why the so called experts claim that Winky gave the 12th round away when I thought he actually won it.

            That is what I had heard as well.

            I have to agree with X.

              He certainly didn't lose it.

              By appearances it was felt he didn't make his case in the 12th.

              But I thought he did enough to call it his way.

                I also had Taylor winning the Winky fight by a point or so.

                Though I can understand how people scored that fight narrowly for either fighter, or why it was scored a draw.

                It definitely wasn't a robbery in either case. It was a super close hard fought fight, by both fighters.

                  Simple buddy you saw it differently.

                  These experts have a clear case, since the fight was a draw . . . their point is Winky could have given Bhops hell just for the **** of it. Winky thought he already won the fight thus a luck luster performance on the 12th which obviuosly came out as a mistake.
