Winky Calls Out de La Hoya

Good stuff.

Wright deserves this fight, anyway.

 

The thing that bothers me about Winky calling out Oscar is that it does'nt really mean much as far as rankings is concerned, so in reality Winky just wants a big payday which I dont blame him but at least be honest about it like Floyd Jr. was.

 

very strange.

winky of course was avoided by some champs. but no one really was there long enough to go for a unification bout. only mosley had the chance and that was that.

was this made by a non boxing fan? becuase it looks like a very badly made article. not complete at all. i mean most fight fans no the big ****ing difference between light Middlewieght and Middlewieght

 

well he got a pretty poor slice of pie when he fought hopkins. in the 90's he had been taken for rides and i think only now has he relised that he has a name that he can get money off.....but damn is he doing a bras job of it. being inactive is never the way to sell tickets. also being silent on all subject...i mean has anyoen seen a winky interview or comments by winky since his last fight

whats the catchwieght we are thinking of here? 158 or the legit limit of 154/3?

 

I think it goes deeper than it being about a payday.. Wright had trouble getting any name fighters.. Oscar has always prided himself in fighting the best, but he did fail to take on Winky.. Seems Winky's star rose, and he became a dominant fighter as Oscar started to shy away from boxing.. Its a good fight that should have happened a while ago, it would still be a good fight now. Old would be rivalry that will generate interest.

 

Wright doesn't desereve ****.
Where he has been for the whole year?
+ He lost the previous fight + No one wants this fight to happen except WInky

 

well this is the point only now has he noticed that he can get good fights and good paydays...win or lose fighting hopkins was goign to be an advantage. fightign elite fighters means you are now fighting with the best so others elite fighters would fight him.

but he is a terrible promoter. did anyone think winky wanted to fight again...for all i knew he had retired. he should of been all up on the news being vocal.

winky promotions would flop if it ever came to power

 

i say make it happen. **** it. noone else is gonna fight oscar.

 

:good :yep

 

And Oscar has lost 3 of his last 6, and also only fights once a year.


Wiinky would kill him.....Winky has a much better record also.

 

This is the only fight that makes sense for Oscar right now legacy-wise. I think Winky needs this fight for money maybe and to get his name back out there, also he would be able to say he beat all the best of his generation Hoya, Mosley, Tito...and Vargas, and fought tought with B-Hop 16lbs above his best weight. I personally think Wink should go after Abraham, Pavlik or Mora but he seems to be not interested in anything but paydays now.

 

Well, if Pac and Hatton are the only other options I'd love to see him fight Winky. atsch

 

Actually, this fight makes sense: two old boxers who should have faced years ago and can now finally get in the ring, now that they're both irrelevant to the overall picture. Winky may not bring much money to the table for Oscar, but he does bring as good a "legacy" win as DLH can expect to secure at this stage in his career.

This should be for the "Legends of Boxing" middleweight title. I favour Winky to win, being as I am one of the 15 Winky Wright fans on the planet.

 

And yet Winky is still trying to convince the fans that this fight would mean anything. It's a pathetic attempt at a payday and anyone who knows even a little abotu boxing knows it.
