    he still thinks he's world champion the way he's turning down all the fights as if they aren't good enough for him

    Looking for the Pot of Gold at the end of the Rainbow. The problem is - he hasn't found the Rainbow yet.

    He only want's big names and big fights - he's already turned down a fight from HBO to fight Kessler. Plus he doesn't want to fight any of his friends - Forrest - Lacy - Jones. And with everyone wanting the winner of the Taylor/Pavlik - I doubt if he gets that one either.

    Time to put away his pride and take a fight.

    Winky has never been an active boxer and now it seems he has disappeared - he turned down some big fights last year and now no one can be bothered with him

    Locked in his room convincing himself he's too good a name to fight Mikkel or Arthur, forgetting he hasn't won a meaningful fight for three years.

    if he retires now he would still have a lot of respect right? i mean mans never been knocked out, has 51 wins and only 4 losses and two of these were Majority decision losses.

    but if he fights on i see 3 losses in a row one by knockout = pavlik

    As Hopkins predicted before their fight, he's on the nearest milk cartoon. HA HA. No but seriously, he's probably at a Krispy Kreme getting his grub on.

    Actually he won 3 meaningful fights: one against Trinidad, one against Taylor (whatever the judges thought) and one against Quartey.

    The B-Hop fight could have gone either way - just remember the compubox stats...

    Still I am also sad to hear that Winky is turning down fights. I don't know who he is waiting for... Mayweather? Hopkins? Or who?

    I would like to see how he handles Abraham.

    Quartey was no meaningful fight as he was way past his best, especially at 160...
