1st off I have always been a big Winky fan and you are a truly awesome fighter if you can dominate him. However, Manny Steward said it best before the fight and its basicaly the same thing that Atlas said. Manny said that he didnt think Shane should fight Winky because Winky would be the worst matchup in boxing for him and he felt the same way tonight. He said that Winky shouldnt be fighting Williams because its the worst matchup in boxing for him because of there style. Winky likes to be all D and wait for you to stop punching but Williams never stops. Thats the same thing Atlas said. Then the few times he does stop, he's so long that he's out of reach for Winky to counter.
Basicaly Im saying that it was a great performance and he should be given full credit but you cant say that he's unbeatable just because no one else can do that to Winky. Styles make fights and this was always a horrible style for Winky. Guys like Cotto & Shane willl be throwing alot more punches and with major power. Just look at how he lost to Quintana but Cotto killed him and how he won a close fight with Margarito but Mosley destroyed him. Some guys are just horrible matchups for other guys. Again, its not a negative thing. Williams is a straight freak who is the real deal and can possibly beat anyone but I wouldnt be shocked at all if Floyd, Cotto, or Mosley beat him. I wouldnt even be shocked if my boy Clottey beat him even though he fights a similar style to Winky. I wouldnt be shocked if Kirkland beat him. All these guys can. On the flip side Williams could slaughter all of them. Im just saying that you shouldnt overreact because he's beatable. You just have to find the right opponent.
People talk about his size but thats not a big deal to me. They then talk about his punch rate but thats also not a big deal to me. Its his Southpaw stance combined with the other 2 that makes him a monster to deal with, e****aly for an orthodox fighter. Most of them have problems with Southpaws so he will be a hard guy to beat but both Mosley & Cotto have showed that they can deal certain Southpaws and then there are certain ones that they will have trouble with
