    Who Wins At 168: Winky vs Calzaghe in Wales?

    Im not totally sure but I dont think there's every really been a thread or poll about this fight. Weve talked about every possible fight around the 160-175 weight classes except this one and I think this is probally the one that is the easiest to happened and would be a great fight. We all know Calzaghe isnt dying to come to America despite what he says and we all know that Winky will fight anyone and would have no problem of going to Wales. Winky is maybe the biggest American star overseas from having so many fights over there. This is also 2 stud fighters. Everyone talks about Calzaghe fighting Taylor, Hopkins, Tarver, and RJ but Winky is the man I feel would jump on it, wont cry too much about the conditions as long as he's paid, and wont have any problem with fighting in Wales. He knows that fight would be huge overthere with a ton of people seeing it. I think if Winky wins against X or just fight well like he normally does then this could be the next fight and I would love to see it

    This would be a very competitive martchup, they're both very skillful and fast. Calzaghe would win a UD in a close fight, I think.

        I'm picking Winky because his defense might get to Joe's head, and Joe hasn't fought an opponent like Winky yet.

              I think it would be a safe bet to say Winky would win by decision. Calzaghe is one of the best pound for pound fighters in the sport right now, but the only person I have rated higher than Winky is Floyd. Winky has a very disciplined, intelligent boxing style that is far less than glamarous or entertaining, but is probably one of the most efficiently utilized strategies out there today. Winky has been very impressive in the past few years as well as in recent fights and I don't see him losing to Calzaghe.

                This fight could actually happen. Winky got a terrific reception when he was presented to the crowd at the Hatton v Tszyu fight so I think it would sell pretty well.

                  I think Winky would win this one off the fact that he is has the better Defence out of the two!!! Sam soliman is really the only person to break his defence down and him and Calzaghe are nothing alike!!! Taylor didnt beat him either!!! Winky by UD!!!!

                    I think that Calzaghe is too busy and WInky takes rounds off so Calzaghe would take a decision.
