    Props to both Winky Wright and Jermain Taylor

    Even with draw or by one round decision disputes....great fight by both men...they both had disadvantages...size/power vs defense/experience...and fought THEIR way to best counter each other...trading round by round by round by round..I was just happy for a great fight between two A class stars in boxing on the big stage...NOT on PPV for the LINEAR title with no contract disputes or corruption..classic inexperience vs experience...good defensive boxer vs good boxer puncher...two respectful guys...no riots...great crowd...

    and who was that one nut who said this would be one of the weakest fights in history or something?

    you don't have to trash talk or fake a frown at weigh-ins to make a great competative fight

    :::cheers:::

    I said the same thing. Both guys put up a good showing and I thought the final verdict (the draw) was fair.

        Very entertaing fight. Judges had it correct. A draw is fine with me. Taylor showed he is still raw and green and has a lot to learn. Winky showed heart for taking some good power shots and coming back with his own flurries.

        If Wright had not got in his bike in the 12round he probably could have won this fight IMO. It was that close.
