    Winky clearly told Larry that he did not want the rematch and that there were plenty of fighters out there for him to fight. He fought a good fight and is acting like a baby over it. He didn't loose, it was a draw. They could have a rematch and knowing HBO they would put it on PPV and he would get paid. Why cry, you're in the business to make money and if he would just went to the press conference, stopped crying, and demanded a rematch, Im pretty sure Taylor would have agreed to it. He did with Hopkins.

        Watch it again, bud...and turn the volume down. Watch what punches land, which ones don't, who controls the pace, who's effectively aggressive...and remember, defense counts for something as well.

        Watch it and score it again...without Lampley and Merchant. I love both of 'em; but they do work for HBO, which is really putting a lot of stock in Taylor.

        It's hard to be an objective journalist when you're reminded who butters your bread.
        The volume was off when i watched the fight, man.

            Say what you want about Winky but right there is the truth.^^^
            Beat him point blank my ass.
            Many ringside journalists and websites had Taylor winning or a Draw, Ours included.
            IMO, it comes down to Round 3,9, and 12.
            Those were very close, but i thought Taylor won at least two of them.

                I thought Winky dominated in the rounds that he won, but Taylor eeeked a few of the close rounds and i gave him the nod.
                Ill watch the fight again.

                  I was a Winky Wright fan coming in. He's not my favorite fighter, but he was in my top ten. I don't feel that way anymore. I had the fight as a draw, but I gave Winky a couple very close rounds. I think it could've gone either way, and as long as the margin of victory was 2 points or less, I would've been satisfied. If I had to say who won, without a points system, I would've probably said Taylor. For Wright to say he was robbed is bull****. He's using that as an excuse to not fight him again? Whatever, Wink... if they do fight again, I hope "Bad Intentions" beats that ass. I lost a whole lot of respect for Winky, and gained a lot for Taylor.

                    This is the first time I really disagree with you bro.Winky won clearly in my eyes and a draw sucks but Taylor winning is pure crap it did not happen.Winky beat taylor far more than Taylor beat Hopkins in their first fight thats how I am looking at it other than the fact that I watched Winky win 116-112 IMO.

                      This is actually the first time I think I've disagreed with you, playa. I had it as a draw, but there was one round that I almost gave Taylor, but I thought Winky did enough to steal it, so I came a hair from 115-113 Taylor. There were a lot of really close rounds, though, so I can see people disagreeing.
