            So Winky Wright turned down Floyd or are you just speaking generally?

                  Speaking in generally.

                  Now with the whole Floyd-Winky thing. I know Winky disagreed with the money he wanted 50/50 that's what Winky wanted. I think Floyd was getting 2 or 3mil more than Winky don't remember. Winky and some fans believed that it was a PR stunt by Floyd and Arum. And, if they were really serious they would do the 50/50.

                  Not sue if it was at a catch-weight. But, I do remember that Gary Shaw said that Floyd side asked for a next day re-hydration clause. But, Arum nor Floyd ever admitted to such to my knowledge. And, Winky himself didn't ever confirm that either. His whole thing was the money split. Which was the same problem he had with Taylor, Margarito, and Oscar.

                  I think Oscar offered him 6mil and he wanted Tito like money...Margarito offered like 4 or 5mil and he wanted the 8mil that they offered Floyd. I think he wanted a 50/50 JT don't remember just remember he didn't like the split.

                    Yep I remember Arum/Floyd doing the old bait and switch.

                      Didn't Winky also say that Calzaghe was pretty much a nobody and that he would have to beat Lacy(good friends from Florida) in order for him to consider Joe as an opponent?

                      I can't remember.

                      I just know that Winky had false belief in his self worth. Because, he was such a road warrior during his younger years, that when he beat Shane and Tito he thought he was worth more than what he really was.
