    Dont really like any of your fav fighters.... except morales, he is my 2nd fav fighter of all time after ali.

    Ironically, I quite like calzaghe, hopkins & hatton, the men who beat them but I know how you feel regarding morales, his last 3 fights have left me gutted, there isnt any other fighter who can blend the technical skills with the warriors heart like erik could, Im hoping for a miracle on aug 4th.

    :good

    What most fail to realize is that Hopkins would probably still beat anyone in the world at 170. Winky is still a great fighter and should be fighting at 160 not 170 far above his best weight. Hopkins is a defensive genius and probably the best boxer in history at making you fight his fight. The way Hopkins took Winky's jab away so early in the fight was a thing of beauty that no one else has been able to do. Winky tried and I do believe trained hard but Hopkins was simply the better man. No shame at all in losing to a top 30 ATG especially fighting above your best weight. Props to Winky for taking this fight he'll be back.

    With proper nutrition I don't see how that would have happened. Hopkins trained hardcore vs. Tarver and gained over 15 pounds.

    Winky lost because Bernard is the better fighter, period.

    Man winky was in over his head against bernard. It was a mismatch from the beginning. The size difference punctuated that.

    I think all the fight proved is that (1) Bernard is the better fighter and (2) Winky probably doesn't belong at 170.
