    Why not? What's your criteria for getting in?

    Held JT to a draw
    Mosely X 2
    Tito
    Close fight with Vargas
    Prime McKart X 3

    If he's not in he's close. If he picks up a title at 160, he's in.

    If he ain't already he should be close.If he beats Williams I say he is in.

    I don't think people consider Winky's whole career when they consider this topic. That's why the 3 wins over McKart are rarely mentioned. They were a long time ago, but that's the whole point. In those days Bronco McKart was no joke. Back then he was a long and difficult night for anybody at 154, and Winky beat him 3 freaking times.

    He's got a good resume regardless of what people say.He always tried to fight the best.Let's not forget he wasn't just a titleholder,he actually was the undisputed JMW champ

    :patsch of course. one of the best defensive techs of his time. fought the best and most of them in their prime, won most of the time, and always challenged anyone. shane, vargas, hopkins, and taylor all p4p when he fought them
