        when winky throws his punches he throw them straight.. long and fast and he isnt open after them.. he doesnt leave his shell to punch like qaurtey or clottey he punches out of his shell.. like ali used to

              he's the best fighter winky wright has ever faced by far, even at this tender age of 55 or whatever the **** he is now

              hopkins will take away a lot of what wright likes to do because he is such a good counter puncher.
              yup......................

                    Winky gonna jab the **** out of old man. Nah Hopkins is one of my favorites too. But I think this is gonna be one of the only fights where Winky may be faster than his opponent. I see the jab coming all night. Don't think any of these guys will get kncoked out period. Both are too tough and good defensively it just won't happen.

                    I got Winky by decision. Hopkins will counter good at times. But remember Winky is always known to fire back after his opponent strikes. As smart as Bernard is he knows he's gonna have to engage and get inside and physical with Wink. If not he'll be at the end of the jab. Which means he'll be getting tagged or being scored against due to inactivity. If Taylor can get two decisions over Hopkins, I think it is very likely Winky will get one. Winky won't whoop on him like he did Taylor but he'll get a decision.

                    As far as Oscar he'll eat the jab all night. I see him doing what he did against Mayweather flurry and hope to score with looping hooks. But ultimately Wright would get a decision in my opinion.

                      Hopkins would most likely try to make it a rough fight. PErhaps he will foul winky to break him out of his shell or just hold him and punch at the same time.
