Please don't feel you can't debate with me, i am open minded enough to admit i'm wrong when several people tell me a fact i didn't know.

    Peace............
    thats cool man. no disrespect here. i like winky myself.

        Peace to Big_Pappy. I didn't want you to think i was an idiot boxing fan because i'm not. I'll be the first to admit i can judge things a little bias when it comes to Winky but i'm not scared of admitting when i'm wrong.

        Jack i love most of his fights. The Fernando was exciting even though he lost and the Mosley fights have been amazing too. I like his come forward southpaw style and his jab. He really makes his opponents fight. I also respect that he hasn't got a KO punch so he utilises his other skills more to win.

          IMO Winky's best fight was his first fight with Mosley. But even that fight was rather pedestrian. He's solid but he brings no excitment to the ring. Hell there were several empty seats in the arena last week. People keep talking about Winky being ducked, I think he just couldn't sell a fight at the time. Boxing is a business and Winky is doing just what was done to him, he's not interested in fighting solid guys who can't bring any cheese to the table.

              So you like him because he brings something new to the table. Instead of being a common slick-southpaw i.e. Byrd, Whitaker, etc. He likes coming forward. Did you like Hagler, too?

                I loved Marvin Hagler, he was a amazing fighter. Winky does bring something different to the table.

                K-Yo That is just plain hating ******ness, everyone knows Winky is not anything like Ruiz.

                  Hagler was a more versatile, better fighter than Winky. The comparisons to Hagler, are generous.

                  Hagler threw combinations, powerful ones. He mixed up his attack.

                  That's why Hagler KO'd people.

                  Winky is a monotonous fighter. A very good fighter, but not inspring.

                    i dont mind winky, im just saying, hes boring to watch, underrated, has a good defence, not a lot of power, but always gets the job done, like ruiz.

                      I just saw that Sturm is fighting Cherif in December, so this could mean that Winky is the one to fight Tito on March...I would prefer to see Tito vs. Sturm cuz if Tito beats Winky ppl will start to say that he didn't fought a real middle bla bla bla...Hey WinkyFan if the fight between Winky and Tito happens I will be glad to take all your points on a bet.
