    My Aunty's stepson claims Winky Wright is severely underated

    I only started watching a couple of years ago. My Aunty's stepson told me that Winky Wright is a top 5 middleweight for post-millennial boxers. He told me he has an awkward yet effective style which would pose problems for anyone.

    It's hard to disagree because he holds wins over Tito, Mosley, Vargas and Adrian Dodson.

    Do you guys agree? Please discuss..

      No strongly disagree, Wright was an above average boxer but never an elite.

          You are really getting to be annoying with these threads talking about what your different relatives had to say about certain boxers because you just started watching boxing a couple of years ago. Quit your lying and this BS about these relatives telling you all these stuff when they never told you a damn thing. If you want to trash Hopkins and Trinidad as overrated weight bullies and praise Wright then have the honesty to do it under your own name. You saw them all fight and this is your opinion of them not your dad's or your grandpa's or your auntie's stepson's. Winky holds no win over Vargas. He lost to Vargas FFS. Get your facts right and quit lying.

            Ooohhhh snaappp! I legit thought he beat Vargas, my bad. Thanks for educating me bro.

            Btw I'm not trying to trash any fighter, just trying to get people's perspectives. Appreciate you giving yours.

              He was ranked number 2 pound for pound at one point. What are you talking about never elite? He schooled Mosley and dominated Trinidad.

                  This. And he schooled Mosley twice.

                  He also was robbed of a middleweight title win with a ridiculous draw vs. Jermain Taylor.

                  You could make the argument (and many have) that Winky was the only fighter De La Hoya ever ducked.

                    For reals. Winky Wright was class. Ugly style fighter but very difficult to dismantle. Paul Williams dominated him due to his insane volume, but that was when Winky was way past it.
