Winky is being a sore....drawer??

[oldgringo]

It wasn't in his home town. But obviously Winky didn't do nearly enough to strip the title away from Taylor.

At least he wasn't so excited to get a draw like Taylor. Did you see how elated he looked that he got the draw then acting as if he was the P4P champ or something? So far he hasn't really proven anything other than real close scored matches against fighters who really never had the most popular following in their careers.

YEah it was a bigtime hometown decision.
Even thought it wasnt in Taylors hometown.
Or him homestate.

He did enough to win that fight. He clearly won that last round.. what did taylor do? nothing.. Another HBO poster boy getting home town decisions..

Taylor threw punches.
Winky fought for about a minute and coasted the first and last minute.
In any case, from what ive heard, many ringside scorers, ESPN and our own Rick Reeno will disagree with you.

And I'm sure that made all the difference?

I like both of these guys and was able to watch the fight with no bias. Anyone who thinks this was a robbery is a ******, simple as that. The fight could have been scored 115-113 for either guy but i think a draw was really the fairest decision. It was the fight of the year and all this whining just detracts from it.

i didnt read all the previous posts about this so if someone mentioned what i thought i apologize.. here are my thoughts of the fight..

a good fight.. action packed.. i wasn't at all bored..

taylor won rounds on aggression. he landed a FEWW shots here and there.. but MOST of his shots were picked off by winky.. winky has a great defense and did what he had to do to win that fight..
the only thing i can say he did wrong was coast in the last round.. he wasnt as busy as he should've been.

but honestly.. HBO esp. jim lampley is really getting on my nerves.. he was riding taylors **** all night.. its as simple as that.. the more fights i see on HBO the more i realize how biased he really is..

If Winky didn't win that fight last nite than there is no way Taylor beat Hopkins in either fight.This **** is getting boring, Taylor is way over rated, he's just a big middleweight with alot of people pulling strings for him.

That doesnt make any sense.
What did last nights fight have to do with the Hopkins fight?
Yeah, nothing.
Please leave the hating out of this thread.
