    Winky Wright

    Almost all fighters in the P4P lists are busy making noises and alligning themselves for big fights.

    Now where the hell is Winky and who is he fighting next?

      Oh yes I have to agree but at least Taylor is showing his intention to keep busy and stay active. That's what I mean when I say noise.

      Why can't he fight Taylor again?

        I am sure we will hear something soon.I really want him and Taylor to fight again but it does look bleak with all the other **** going down.

          These are the fighters at P4P:

          PBF is fighting, Pacquiao is fighting, Taylor is fighting, Barrera is fighting, Rafa Marquez is fighting, Miguel Cotto is fighting, Bhops is openly looking for a fight. Hatton has just fought and another fight lined up. Only him and Joe Calzaghe has no fights lined up.

          Damn he is #3 in that list so he better move and make a plan now.

            Calzaghe is fighting Manfredo next.

            As far as Winky is concerned, who does he fight? Taylor is fighting Mora, Miranda is fighting Green, Abraham ain't doin ****, there aren't any good challenges out there for him. He said he wanted the winner of PBF-Oscar, but that would in about a year, so he needs to fight, but who?

                Winky is at a strange place, but he always has been (so long under the radar, then respected by critics, but always lukewarm with fans).

                He's at the tail end of his career. I could see him retiring in the next two or three years. The problem is, pretty much, to get to Winky, you have to be near the top and thats where the money fights are. But Winky's style is a killer and his medium popularity means lower money, so its a lose-lose situation for most guys at that level. They'd rather hold out for someone else.

                It is pretty funny actually. All the guys near that level name drop Calzaghe and Taylor- never Winky. If they beat Winky, they'd be hugely respected, but they want no part of him, they'd rather hold out for some big name that is less difficult to develop a gameplan for.

                  Oh okay thanks for the update on Calzaghe.

                  Winky needs to find a decent fight just to make him busy and keep the money flow coming in.

                    There was talk of him moving to 168 to fight Calzaghe. That has never materialised.
