      I dont think Kessler can destroy winky, since all of the loss record of Winky came of a UD loss.

      Winky will have a little bit hard time if the Abraham Arthur vs Winky Wright will happen on January of 2009.

      But I will go for WW for a UD ove AA.

        and hopkins is hopkins. a legend first and foremost, but also kind of hard to look good against when you both fight the same type of fights.

        AA beat miranda, who's a slugger.........winky is in a total different class.

        he's a defensive minded technician, whom AA has never seen b4. wright takes him to school. no doubt in my mind.............
        You've got a good point on that tyde13, and I Agree....

          I can't see Winky winning a fight vs a young strong fighter in his prime after more than a year layoff.

            ****** Hbo contract clause is partial to whats wrong with boxing. If Wright wants a tune up fight, he should have one cause he needs it after the long lay off.

              I think it is more about Abraham's ability to adapt to a weird defense and style... Abraham is young enough that he has the ability to win it if he has the right game plan.

              Man, it is killing me to give my thoughts about this fight, because a lot of them are concluding with Wright losing.

                Winky should definitely get a few tune up fights first before he goes in a with a champion. He didn't look great in his last fight by any means and that was even over a year ago. Hes one of my favorite fighters so its hard to root against him but he really needs to get something going.

                  Well it would be a terrible investment for a poor draw to fight a nobody, so... I can understand where they are coming from...

                  It's irritating that Wright will be walking in after a 18 month layoff or so though.
