    It wasnt just the 12th either. People gave him the 11th but I thought he ran in that one alot too. People wondered why Taylor couldnt hit him but it was because Winky ran at the end and thats a bad ending to a super fight

    ****.Im glad somebody saw it like i did,seriously.

    Yeah I was rooting for Taylor,but ****,lets not ignore what winky didnt do.Its not like I dont recognise what Taylor did wrong.He was an idiot for backing into the corner for example.At least raise your ****in hands Jermain.

      ****, E. dont take this the wrong way,but thats ****ing ******ed.

      I guess I cant argue that the champ might get the nod in a close round against that impregnable logic.

        I'm not suggesting that if nobody lands or throws a shot it be given to the person who was pressing the action and controlling the tempo, but I'm saying if I couldn't score it even and somebody had to be awarded the round... how would it not be that person?

        You can't fight off your back foot the entire round, throw 1 flurry that nothing lands, and expect to win. JT commented how he was shocked Winky didn't press the fight in the 12th... how the **** didn't JT press the fight in the 12th? Everybody is putting higher standards on Winky for these rounds for some reason, and I simply don't see why.

        Addon: **** Mech, don't take this the wrong way, but that's ****ing ******ed to not read a whole sentence.

          lmao.That was the core of your argument E.And you didnt deserve to get away with by thinly veiling it.

          Correct me if I be wrong.I bet not as smart as you.But ****.Wasnt Taylor fighting the 12th,with one eye?

          But i wont make that the basis of my argument.Here it is though,as Taylor,how do you engage the guy who wont engage? As winky,how do you NOT give it your ****ing all in the championship rounds? against the champion?

            Taylor, quite clearly in the post fight interview, felt that he was actually behind in the fight I'd say which is why they made such a big deal out of WInky "giving up" the 12th round. How are you, the "champion", going to not try to win the final round by pursuing your opponent who you believe to be ahead.

            And, this whole thing is strangely ironic given the type of fight this was compared to the Hopkins/Taylor fight... yet a new argument is being formed for Taylor that works against him in the last 2 fights.

            And thin veiled nothing. My posts are short and to the point and if somebody misinterprets them, they need only read them again to understand it.

              Well duh.You are infallible.

              Its just sometimes the subtle genius of your posts escape me.

              Whats that argument exactly? Because regardless,they were close fights.Though I do believe Wright coasted foolishly.But what exactly is the argument/"excuse" being made for Taylor?

                WHile I don't agree with the argument, people were saying Wright coasted in the 11th and 12, specifically the 12th, when he should have brought it to Taylor. Meanwhile, in his last fight fights, Taylor could not bring anything in the final rounds when I felt he needed to. This point is moot to me anyway, since I don't agree with it.

                THat all being said, I just finished downloading the fight (****ty nsv quality though) and skipped immediately to the 12th round. I am more positive than ever that wright won that round. Taylor landed at best 4 shots in the first 2 minutes. His "flurry" which was talked about hit nothing but gloves at about the 1:00 mark where at best 1 shot landed. Winky controlled the pace of the final round, and clearly outlanded Taylor.

                  I wasn't disappointed in Wright he moved up in weight to fight the middle weight champ someone pyshically far bigger than him and was almost crafty enough to dethrone him. The only thing that bugged me was Winky's last round he obviously felt he had the fight won and decided to take advantage of Taylors swollen eye by coasting the last round occasionly throwing the stiff jab then back off, whereas if Wright forced the issue a little more in the last round then we could of had a new middleweight champ. Watching on sky sports it was said at the end that he would not want a rematch which is understandable because clearly his plan did not go to work and he did feel the extra weight in Taylors punches so it would be a smart decision to move back down to light middle. Being a fan of Winky i had it a draw with mayb Winky winning by a few rounds but a tight fight and i feel all in all Winky did not do enough to take Taylor's title from him. All i can say is I want Hopkins Taylor III desperately

                    I doubt Winky fights JC after that, unless the money is better than what he got for this fight, which I doubt. Jermaine Taylor vs Joe Calzaghe...but I'll guess Joe 'I ain't gettin on no plane' Calzaghe would have to get on a plane, could happen I guess.

                      Well If Clazaghe is looking for one big superfight then Taylor is the obvious candidate with Hopkins taking Tarver to School and back a TArver - Calzaghe fight does not have half as much the appeal that a Taylor - Calzaghe fight holds
