    I like Floyd's slick defense style better, and the shoulder roll. Winky just stands right in front of you. If Winky is in there with someone stronger is face will show the blows like against Taylor, even though he didn't fight as much defensive against Jermain.

    I think Winky was stunned or caught somewhere in the Taylor fight.

    Oh yeah and how is the shoulder roll gay?

      The problem is that Winky is quite fast. I think his speed is underrated. He can whip out a jab and be on the defense before you can try to match his hand speed.

        His handspeed is pretty good but not spectacular.

          its not his hand speed as much as it is his jabs speed. is combinations arent spectacularly fast, but his jab certainly is

            Floyd Mayweather.

            Even if he loss some speed he could still box and win example in the Judah fight.

            The shoulder roll is very effective example James Toney he doesnt have the speed he used and still is effective the HW punchs. yes he got caught by some but still he defense is very effective to make his couter ready.

              Just how Toney (who has a similar defense to Floyd) gets tagged non-stop?

                with much consideration floyds defense is better then wrights only for the reason that he gets his less and isnt that what defense is all about? not takeing punishment
                What are you talking about? Their defensive styles are very similiar except Mayweather uses his athleticism more. Toney used to be athletic until he got older but watch Toney's older fights & you'll see the similarity.
