      What about not talking the 40/60 deal against Mayweather deal? Winky's cost himself huge paydays but if he's happy with the way everything turned out in the end that's call that matters.

            I think he should have took the rematch even if he did not like the split because if he won he would have been MW champ and he would not have been avoided.

                55/45 deal. But yea, I bet he regrets not taking that fight.

                    Is it me or did it look like Winky changed his style last night??

                    He was bouncing around a lot and being less of a counterpuncher. Not saying his normal style was exciting, but it was more effective for him.
