    I understand. I just prefer to be a fan of a fighter who is set out to actually HURT his opponent,and try to take them out, rather than just outpointing them, and hope for a decision victory. JMM is a technical fighter, and one of my favorites of all times, yet he still has an entertaining style. To me, Winky is just boring as **** to watch.

        Winky fans will argue that Oscar has and is ducking Winky. The truth is, there is no desire to even see that fight. The one fight i wouldnt mind seeing Winky in, is one with Pavlik. I would love to see him hide behind that turtle shell defense while Pavlik pounds away on him.

                I dont think there was ever a time when Winky was talked about being in a "must see" fight. In the 80's, Duran/Leonard was a must see. Frazier/Ali was a must see. Floyd/Cotto is a must see. For some reason, i can really give 2 ****s if i ever see another Winky fight ever again. I dont know what is it about the guy, but i cant stand watching him. I think its because all of his fights are pretty predictable. He covers up in his shell, then fires away with jab after jab. Once in a while he'll make an attempt to throw a power punch that looks as if wouldnt hurt my 14yr old sister. His fans will argue that he's exciting because he throws alot of punches. Ok, what good are they, if they have nothing on them? Its like watching touch football rather than full contact tackle football. Anyone else feel the same way?
                I agree, Winky's gotta be the dullest, most boring fighter I've ever had the opportunity to watch. Great technical boxer but will bore your ass to death watching him fight. I will never pay for a Winky fight, never.

                    Wright-Trinidad did more PPV buys than Trinidad-Jones Jr......and there were people actually rooting for Wright...so much for being unknown.....Hopkins-Wright sold more than Pavlik-Taylor 2

                      Wright vs. Julio Cesar Vasquez was actually a great fight. I suggest people watch it.
                      Wright vs. Vargas was a good one too!
                      Wright vs. Taylor I enjoyed, it was an interesting clash of styles and they hit each other fairly often.

                      I enjoy the masterclasses he puts on some of his opponents too. the Hopkins fight was just ugly though.
