    Winky wright was a beginner and is not even comparable to the current winky wright, that winky was a come forward guns blazing go for the kill type, everybody knows how winky fights now stupid example

    Winky was not the type of fighter you said even at that stage, though he was definitely pre-prime and not as good as he would become.

    He's more a come forward fighter today than he was back in the day when he fought Vasquez. He was boxing and moving against Vasquez, but without the turtle shell D he would later master.

    at 154 i give it to Sweetpea- I think he has a lot more strength that Floyd- and floyd doesnt do so hot against speedy slick fighters- and there were none slicker than Sweetpea! I think floyd would win rounds, but i thin overall Pernell takes it. Whitaker just has a lot more savage KOs than floyd, and he can fight moving backwards, or he can whip that ass coming forward. Floyds fancy shoulderroll would also be downplayed as Sweetpea did his classic dodge / slip / dance out of harms way much to the judges delight!

    Whitaker. He looked better at 154 than PBF did.
