Yep. Winky is 100% responsible for his situation. He's routinely made idiotic decisions regarding his career, like not taking the rematch with Taylor. Quite simply, he doesn't deserve a big fight right now.
rd 5 Marty is working, but honestly he didnt land **** that rd. lots of off side and glancing blows. greene landed some easily scored clean blows. Seems to me MJG isnt gettting his respect so far from the commentators or lederman 10-9 MJG 48-47 MJG
If this was going 12 that swelling might be bad enought ot stop it, as it is in 10 rds he should be ok
It's a shame. One of my favorite fighters. Should have been MW champ. He should have taken Taylor. Would have been easy a second time around. Cause Taylor was garbage.
