Will Winky Wright ever fight again?

Probably not. He might but it won't be anybody of relevance. I think he's done.

Not unless he's willing to shatter his ego and accept the fact that he's not going to get multi-million dollar offers kicking his door in. Winky's no spring chicken, and with little name recognition, being off for over a year, and a weight problem (can't make 154lbs last I heard) he's a hard sell for anybody.

Hopkins really did milk carton his ass.

I hope he can lure Baldomir into a 160 pound bout. That gives me a boner thinking about it.

This is what I am thinking. Before the Hopkins fight he was a top MW and P4P guy, but then he gets the L and goes into hiding for over a year. When you consider his age, the loss, the ring rust, and Winky's usual weight problems, thats a lot of **** to over come. Even if he doesnt come back straight to Pavlik, hes getting too old.
Unfortunately I think Winky's days as a top boxer are over.

I wouldnt mind seeing him do something like that, and retire with one more pay check and a W.
I always really liked him, I just think his time has past. Too bad, cause he has nobody to blame but himself.

Add another name to the list of fighters Hopkins has retired.

This Executioner **** is for real.

Maybe Wink can get an endorsement deal for Krispy Kreme donuts? He was eating them like crazy on the Countdown for Hopkins/Wright.

Nah, the Executioner **** is for real because he earned the nickname by raping people in prison!

No one makes a fool of Bernard Hopkins!

Why would that fight be appealing at all?
