    Winky would have beaten Osacr - which is exactly why this fight didn't happen.

    Winky's jab would give Oscar fits just like Quartey did and so would his high guard which was similar to what Sturm used when they fought and Oscar couldnt penetrate not to mention that Winky would be the bigger and stronger fighter, Oscar would have advantages in speed and combinations, both have very good chins so nobody would get stopped in this fight. Really hard to predict but if i was to pick one it would probably be Wright by a close and somewhat controversial decision win.

    Oscar had nothing for Winky.

    i don't think this would be interesting at all... Winky would ve completely dominated Oscar with his superior jab and defense.. And Oscar knew this too, that's why he never fought him..

    ODLH would clearly beat the version that Vargas fought.

    As good as Winky was.. good defense.. effective jab.. I went with Oscar.. Mosley was way smaller than Wright and Trinidad was definitely a much faded fighter... not taking away any thing from Winky who h2h is a nightmare for anybody... but Oscar at 154 was big enough and defly not faded... the Oscar who beat Vargas could give Wright a fight.. as long as he moved and frustrated Winky instead of trying to attack that high guard only to get massacred by jabs.. the fight would be boring though if Oscar moved a lot tbh.....


    But this is the same Winky who gave Jermain Taylor fits when they fought in the center of the ring.. and beat Ike Quartey rather easily so... honestly, if you asked me tomorrow.. I'd probably choose Wright.... at 147 though Oscar was a beast......

    Whoever said Forrest would beat Oscar is crazy... def not at 147.... Forrest was good.. but he had Mosley's number man... he couldn't repeat that against Mayorga.. Oscar would be too smart for the holding tactics.. imo... just my opinon though

    How about the version that beat Shane twice?

    That was a more experienced Winky imo. It would be closer. Oscar is a better fighter than Mosley on paper and skillwise. The only thing Mosley has over Oscar is a SD win against a part time fighter.

    De La Hoya at his best was a better fighter, but he wasn't at his best at 154. I'd take Winky on points.
