      more like Winky turned Abraham down...

      Abraham can fight better opponents actually, Winky is just boring and not many people care to watch him just defend and jab for 12 rounds

        Judges also aren't ever on winky's side. If you saw the ridiculous scores for Hopkins/Winky fight, then you would see what I'm talking about. **** was a close fight with Bhop edging it out. Some serious shady **** going on in that fight unless judging is that bad.

            Hopkins was cheating a lot with deliberate head butts, including the one that cut Winky over the eye. He should have had points deducted for that, or perhaps even been disqualified.

              I didn't think that butt was intentional.

              The holding was more blatant IMO... he should have been penalized for it IMO, but... with the way those judges scored, it really wouldn't have mattered much.

                I had it 116-112 Hopkins so no robbery there imo. No way did Wright win that fight personally. At worst a draw. 117-111 might have been a stretch, but still.

                  Ahh, now there's some clever matchmaking - props to Kessler's team. This bout will net him some more visibility among American fans (not much more though) and he'll win.

                    Winky said he is going back to 160.
