    Who takes this one at 154?

    Would have been a great fight to see. Winky has the style to cause Mayweather plenty of problems. The jab of Winky would of been a great tool against Mayweather.

    50/50 fight. But I do think Winky has the advantage at that weight in terms of his style and size. Still 50/50 because Floyd is undefeated and hasn't shown any weaknesses. I think Winky had one of the best jabs I've ever seen though so he could possibly win.

    This fight was in talks years ago and I recall Floyd bailed out over post weigh in re-hydration

    floyd demanded a rehydration clause, winky agreed, floyd then changed the agreed money split where team winky wouldn't budge and killing the fight.

    :think...sounds familiar??

    Two different sized fighters, Winky by UD.

    Yep, the *****s will disagree though.

    Mayweather wouldn't be able to hurt Wright. Wright is nearly as defensively gifted as Mayweather but is a bigger man. Wright would outwork Mayweather and win a decision.

    However, this is NOT a fight I would look forward to watching. There would not be a lot of action. Throw the insults about me being a "casual fan" but I enjoy action and a fight that is not completely anti-climatic.

    I can watch and enjoy a tactical chess match fight as long as I don't know for sure who will win. Winky I believe would be favored and I'd pick him to win, but there would be some doubt.

    mayweather by ud. jab jab jab, peek a boo, jab jab jab peek a boo. that want work, straight right hands through the middle and around the high guard. walking down floyd, in a peek a boo stance trying to jab your way in. that fight would be easier for floyd to win then you rooks think. the viper on anther hand is a diff story.

    Floyd by clear by not dominating Ud. Floyd 8-4. As much as I like Winky, Floyd is just in a class by himself. Floyd is quicker and punches harder and a little better defensely.

    Winky was a great underated fighter winning against other great fighters in their prime.. He would beat Floyd, as would Oscar and Mosley prime.
