    You don't need to hurt people in order to win a decision..

      true lol this fight is a tough one to pick at 168 but i think winky will be too experienced, ringwise, and has the defensive skills to nulify edisons power, but then again if edison can land some of those bombs...well the fight could completely change as he has such devastating power but i doubt winky will let his guard down so winky by a UD most likely but not ruling out a suprise one punch KO

          yes you do, if winkys jab can't hurt Miranda. How is that going to stop Miranda from throwing punches? Plus, doesn't Miranda have a freakishly long reach. If he used his jab he would hit winky before winky could use his jab on Miranda.

            So let me get this straight... a jab isn't effective unless it gets a guy on ***** street, and Miranda is going to win a battle of jabs with Winky Wright.

            Teach me more please.

              If a guy has 6 inch reach advantage. Which I'm guessing Miranda probably does over winky. If Miranda fought intelligently and used his jab. How is winky suppose to land his jab if he can't even get in close? Do you understand now??????

                It's called counterpunching. It's what Winky does. He almost never leads. He catches all the leading punches from his opponent and counters with his jab.

                I'm going to have to check on Miranda's arm length, because I doubt very much that Miranda has a 6 inch reach advantage on Wright.

                Wright had his arm length reported by HBO from Mosley I to Soliman as 27 inches, but in Quartey & Hopkins, they gave it as 23. I don't know which one it is, but I think it is 27, mostly because his arms cover his head and his belt line at the same time, which means he has some significant length on his arms.

                If Wright does have 27 inch arms... there is no ****ing way Miranda has 33 inch arms.

                  Hahaha DAMN. That'd be some long ****ing arms for a middleweight dude.
