    Taylor vs. Wright - Who Won?

    There's always been so much talk about this fight and who won it, and after watching the Countdown (props to abc123WBVA) last night I decided to see what everyone else thought.

    What you got?
    47
    Winky won it - He was easily more accurate
    51.06%
    24
    Taylor won it - He landed the harder shots through Wink's defense
    27.66%
    13
    A draw was a good call
    21.28%

      I initially thought Wright should have won but taking his foot of the gas late in the fight was a bit of a blunder, given his vast experience. A draw was the right result.

          I Actually made Taylor a 1point winner, close fight and difficult to score so i didnt grumble with a draw. Wink wasa bit ofa ***** tho storming out of the ring and ****!

            As much as I like Winky he's a sore loser, like a kid who doesn't get own way, a little humility in defeat wouldn't go amiss.

              I agree. When a fight is that close you shouldn't go out and fight like you won every round. Draw was a good call IMO.

                    winky didint clearly assert himself nor did he impose himself in the 12th, we all saw it, why are you asking me?
