Wright Wants Taylor, and De La Hoya

[Bozo_no no]

PunchStat does not include partially blocked punches. Taylor threw about 75 punches that partially landed (and were partially blocked.)
In addition to that, im sure you know there is alot more to boxing then just punching.

How are you a judge of what lands and what doesn't?

I think it was really clear Wright landed more shots. Easilly.

I'm not saying the fight wasn't close. It was.

But the majority of people had Winky winning

As well as a vast majority of press at ringside.

All the more reason a rematch would be a great thing for boxing.

[Easy-E]

Winky stated in the press the day after the fight he wanted a rematch, and has said it several times since.

Once again, the fact he made comments in the heat of the moment means nothing.

The fact a select few of you are using that as a crutch for why this fight shouldn't happen is beyond me.

The first fight was highly competitive and entertaining. Everyone would be lucky to see them go at it again.



lol, and how is that?

I want the fight to happen.
I just think its weak that Winky is saying he wants Taylor now, when he knows Taylor is making other fights.

I think that's unfair of you.

You're slighting him for something he said in the heat of the moment, and not acknowledging Winky went back on that the day after the fight and has talked about a Taylor rematch several times since.

Taylor's looking at other fights because he wants (and deserves) a lighter opponent after his last 3 fights.

There's nothing wrong with Winky wanting a rematch for a fight a majority of fans and media thought he won.

I have eyes, and can see what lands and what doesnt.

And the majority of people have no idea how to ACTULLY score fights.

enough with the talk cause this will never end.. lets just wait for the rematch if the rematch will happen. But i think winky has the edge. not a winky fan but i think he had

Weak.

You insist your take on what landed is better than compubox, and then write off a strong majority of opinions on the fight itself like your take is more on point.

I'd expect something like that from Diego, who's nonsense I was responding to, but you're usually a good poster.

I sense some serious Winky hate coming from you. No reason for that.

The only reason Winky was exchanging was because Taylor was trying to engage Winky by backing into the ropes. Taylor thought that Wright would open up more, and he would be able to effectivly counter his barrages. Taylor misjudged, and that cost him the W.
If Winky tries to exhange with Taylor in the middle of the ring, he is in for a long (or maybe short) night.

In the middle of the ring, of course Taylor wins there. Alot of those exchanges where on the ropes and Winky was just covering up, if he covers up just a tad less and counters his shot with his own flurry, a lil sooner, he wins that fight!! why did Taylor think he would open more, he never does, that's illogical to think he would willing open up if he has no history of doing that. If he wanted him to open up, he should have threw more of those hard shots to the body!

dont forget bozo honestly how many of them peopl that voted in them polls did see the fight, most probably seen winky crying robbery and voted for him, i had Taylor 2 up

Taylor said he wanted a rematch after the fight in the post fight press conference (you know, the one winky didnt show up for because he was having a hissy fit) right after this fight.
Winky said no, so Taylor went looking for other options.
Winky then goes back on his word and says he wants the rematch later.

No, im not saying these punched landed flush or anything like that, but they partially landed, and the was no mention of that.
I dont hate Winky, but I disaprove of the way he is handling himself and this situation.
