The boxing world is wondering where Winky Wright has been. The former two-time junior middleweight champion is sitting back and waiting for a big money fight to come his way. Speaking with Eric Raskin of ESPN, Wright said he's been offered plenty of fights, including one with Mikkel Kessler and another with middleweight champion Arthur Abraham, but refuses to accept anything less than a major, big money fight.

He's being stubborn and irrational. Jones and Forrest are his friends, Abraham and Kessler arent big enough. -
I agree with Merchant, Wright is demanding too much.Comment

He should have gotten his head out of his ass in the last rounds against Bernard and the big names would have to fight him.......Other than that tough ****.Fight or don't.....I don't think many people would give a **** if he simply retired at this point.And this is all coming from a fan of his.......

I agree with Larry Merchant, i like winky and all but you have to take some fight and win again in order to get the attention of the big names...winky vs kessler would be intresting to see.Comment

If he has really been offered Abraham, he needs to at least be reasonable here. Negotiate. Pavlik-Winky would be PPV unification if Pavlik goes 2-0 against Taylor and Duddy and Winky could beat Abraham to take the IBF belt.
Winky's defense will never be more tested than a fight like that, and people would like to see it, especially since, by that time, Pavlik would be a bona fide star.Comment
