    Oscar has a deserved rap for fading in fights...Winky doesn't catch enough **** for not doing enough to win in close fights. I'm picking Oscar to outhustle Wright and take a win. Don't think Wright won't cry about the decision either.

    Totally different scenarios. Sturm fight was just a set-up for the the big Hops/DLH match. I'm hoping noone around here actually thinks DLH trained hard for that fight:think SImply put, this was just a case of DLH
    underestimating the real tough Sturm!

    It doesnt matter who wins they are both past their prime.The question would be who is loosing? And the answer is the people who are watching.

    "A beating by Sturm", did you catch the fight:think

    DLH assumed he was going to walk right through this unknown fighter(which explains his lack of training) and was simply caught of guard.

    Sturm played a pretty safe(defensive) game. His main weapon was the jab, which he consistently threw throughout the fight and DLH
    was never able to effectively get past it.

    Sturm's lack of agressiveness did NOT help his cause either.

    It was a close fight that Sturm should have won!

    Close fight, I don't think so. It was clear that Sturm won that fight and the amazing thing is that he did it with one arm. Shame on the judges

    117-111 should have been the right score, 116-112 fair, for Sturm that is.

    7-5, that's the score for the millionaires :lol:

    I agree, if you were looking hard enough to discredit DLH for anything he did:deal

    I don't see how Dlh could beat Winky. Not in a million years. When DLH Throws flurries, his punches are wide and he stays open for straight punches that Winky will find all day. DLH doesn't have much head movement, the only movement is when he moves on his legs, but his legs NEVER hold up for more than 4-5 rounds. No way in hell DLH could beat Winky.

    Don't let Winky's utter domination of Tito fool you.

    DLH is a way better boxer(than Tito) and would make this fight cloe, IMO Winky by close UD or SD maybe!

    Winky IMO has been on the decline ever since the Taylor fight. This won't be the Winky we are use to seeing. Besides you are asking the guy in his mid 30's to drop down to a weight class which he hasn't been in 4 years. He is going to get humbled and I see DLH being too quick for Winky to be Winky. He won't allow Wright to be himself.

    DLH humbles himself and the rest of the world in a close but clear decision.
