    Hopkins' lead right would've caused Winky all sorts of problems. The fact that Winky doesn't have a punch to make Hopkins look before he leaps would've made matters even worse.

        Hopkins said Winky would not have brung him enough money for a career ending bout. It was talked about, but Bernard wanted the most dough for his last fight. Originally Hopkins was booked against Jones, but later it was changed to Tarver after Jones wanted too much money.

                The draw??
                yeah, I did.
                The only way that Taylor was able to keep Bernard off him was by throwing lots of punches, which he did.
                Winky couldnt do that.

                  Hopkins vs Winky would've been a very interesting fight. If anybody can truly find a hole in Winky's game it would be Hopkins. His lead right might catch winky without a perfect guard quite often through the fight. It wpi;d have been an interesting match, that's for sure. Not sure who I would've favored.

                  Oh, and they never fought because Winky was at junior middle most of his career and Hopkins was only interested in big $$$ fights by the time Winky got in the public's eye.

                      Hopkins lead right wasn't a money punch at all later in his career. It was basically a punch that he used just to score with. Winky would walk him down all night and takes a decision.
