    Suprised he came back after all this time...maybe he would have better luck if he started back slower with a couple of tuneups...but w/e

    Winky had a good career, beat a buncha decent-good fighters and of course Sugar Shane...did beat Tito but Tito had seen better days...

    I don't consider him a Hall of Famer but surely a solid fighter in his prime...

      i like winky more as a person than a fighter

      he wasn't that exciting to watch but even so you have to give him props in his prime he was a difficult guy to face

      he had a great career glad he is deciding to call it a day didn't like what i saw in the kid chocolate fight at all he showed heart though i'll give him that

        My thing is what did Winky expect? Hes had 1 fight in 5 years. Even towards the end he was getting hit a lot more and had to focus more on outlanding his opponent.

        He should have fought a few fights a couple years ago to get himself back in it formally

            One of the first things I noticed was Winky's jab was missing.

            I remember Winky having one of the best jabs in the game; Larry Holmes like.

            His jab was non-existent. That's how I know that wasn't Winky in there.
