Legacy: Winky Wright or Juan Manuel Marquez

JMM, by a long, long way.

 

What were winky's best wins again? I remember Trinidad, Mosley I & II, Quartey and thats all. I thought he was robbed against Vargas so i guess i can add that in there.

But definitely Marquez for me. I am bias though

 

Marquez, Wright probably priced himself out of some big fights.

I'm going to say JMM, but I don't think it necessarily had to be that way. I think Wright could've and should've accepted the ODLH fight, beaten him, there would've been a rematch, I think he very well could've beaten him twice and had that Taylor decision gone the other way...that would be two wins over Mosley and ODLH a piece, future HOFers, and that would be all four major 154 titles and linear status, plus linear status and 2/4 major middleweight titles on top of that, on his record. ...That would've been awfully hefty on the history, there. It would've been more arguable then. I wouldn't call you crazy if you thought Winky was better, but I'd disagree. Marquez's legacy is stronger and significantly more likely to stay stronger through the years.

 

Marquez. This isnt even close.

 

Wow Jmm is ATG what was winky? Good champ with good skills?

 

I would put winky among the top 10 from 2000 to 2010 decade. Marquez is top 5.

 

Winky would have beaten him for sure. He wouldnt have stopped him though, so he'd more than likely have been robbed

 

:good

 

I learned the Peak A boo by changing the channel everytime Winky fought

 

He was a bit more than that, and unlike most american fighters he fought and won away from home.
I loved winky, super talented guy.
