    Havent seen last nights fight but Winky could be beaten in his prime by a fighter who hits hard enough to keep Winky of and who throws alot of punches? This is how Vargas beat him.

    2001 - 2004 Wright would have won with some style.

    Winky was a class act in his prime(still is now)he came over to the uk a few times in the 90s and was a plesure to watch,he never got out of first gear against Foster or Bingham.I think he would have given Williams a boxing lesson in his prime

    The Winky Wright in this fight could have beaten Pavlik and Abraham. He looked good, his defense was still sharp, and his hand speed terrific. Williams was just too fast and too busy. Put stationary slow handed fighters like Abraham and Pavlik against him and he could possibly win.

    i wanted to say the same thing in another thing but i didnt want to stir any bodies pot..... im not sure if he would win but he woudl definitely make it competitive..

    winky is still sharp and fast ... there really didnt seem to be any ring rust or loss of a step.. pauls style is just horrible for winky

    Williams is a difficult challenge for anyone, even a prime Winky ... I doubt that Winky would win or be as competetive as he was last night.

    Not in his prime, not ever. Stylistically its a bad match-up for Winky which I stated leading up to this fight. Winky's workrate is too low and he doesn't have the power to make his counters really work against Paul. You need someone who is a strong puncher to slow down Paul or to make him worry about throwing so many punches without being countered.

    To think some people argued a victory for Winky because of those style issues as well :nut
