    I like watching Winky's fights also. I like watching and seeing how opponents try to crack his defensive shell and how he nails them with the jab at mostly well-chosen opportunities. His style isn't for everybody to like but I find it intriguing because it's just so damned effective.

        I like watching Winky fight, so I'm with you on that one.

        He's a master at what he does, and that jab with the pillar defense is something true fans of the craft can appreciate.

        I thought the fight with Taylor was a very exciting fight because it was like a chess match.

        Can't wait to see them both fight in December and then go at it again.

            I don't find him boring he watch...he's very technical and i think thats why people consider him boring. If you can enjoy watching a technical fighter fight than hes great, but its not for everybody.

              personally, he's my favorite fighter....

              ...and typically, if you say you don't like him (or make some jackass remark about him being boring, which he's proved otherwise), you much rather watch "punching" over "boxing". (Which name does our sport go by again?)

                    Winky's style has put caution on many fighter's minds. I tend to be drawn to the technical aspect of the sweet science, I love smart boxing and this guy is an Einstein in the sport. Yeah, knockouts are fun but if that's mostly what your interested in your better off watching a Tough Man competition. This is a sport that's to be savored.

                      I don't think he's exciting but its not a snore fest. I like Hopkins more.
