    Joshua Clottey and Winky Wright question

    Who has better defense? Any other guys that have a better peek a boo defense than these two?

    Josh probably gets hit less, because Winky took more chances and opened up more.

        I'd say Winky.

          I kinda like Joshua's defense better. He has good counters from his peek a boo defense, while Wright kinda just shells up and waits for his opponent to stop throwing punches.

            I use the same style of D, you can shell up and ride out the storm then attack, or you can open the gloves to parry and counter as they punch, or you can throw in upperbody movement and slip, roll etc It's a great style.

            If it has a drawback, it's that you can get too complacent sitting behind it, and you can lose rounds on inactivity.

              Eddie Chambers has a pretty decent peekaboo defense.

                I had a look at the Winky/Williams fight. I think Clottey would be more competitive than Winky. I don't think Williams would bully Clottey around.

                    Winky in his prime was a terrific defensive fighter, Clottey doesn't match up.
