    Can't believe I forgot about Salvador, he was truly brilliant. Perhaps the most poised, surgical boxer ever!

    Where did Winky Wright get the name Winky from? I am just curious, did he wink a lot? Not trying to be funny, just wanted to know.

    It's a childhood nickname, Rich. Can't remember details but an article in The Ring from early to mid 90s featured Winky in the Hot Prospects feature gave an explanation. It's out there if you give it a good googling.
