Winky is done!

Agreed. He ruined what was already a good career by not making his career a great one.

I saw the fight, and we all know I am a huge Wright stan, but I thought he looked OKAY. High defense, pushed that trademark jab out nicely, etc. Biggest thing I noticed was his handspeed was slower. I think to call him SHOT is stupid. I think if he took some tune-ups going into this fight it would have been good for him. Just my opinion.

Love ya, Wink!

 

Well, at the rate he fights a couple of tuneups would make him 44/45 by his next 'big' fight.

 

dude beat hofers


u cant get no better then that


hell he fought everybody except floyd and oscar

 

You know what I mean. He could have taken 2-3 fights against bum of the month types, knocking the rust off in the process.

 

Yeah, I knew that but Winky is Winky. He wants a ton of money every fight. He ain't gonna get a mill or two for a tune up fight.

 

He didn't look terrible for an old guy comin off a 3 year layoff, compare his performance against Mosleys lol, also Quillin has the wrong style for Winky to come back to, I think at 154 he might have a chance against Kirkland and Trout due to styles, and lol at nearly bein knocked out, this guys block is too good to get stopped unless its a one punch knockout

 

Winky shoulda took a tune up first. Kid Chocolate is a bad dude. I had no idea. Im a big fan now. Winky can do some damage at 54. He looked pretty good. Quillin defense was on point.

 

Should have rematched Taylor and claimed that middleweight title. Shame.

I think he did pretty okay tonight. I think the cards were stacked against him, fighting a guy who was much bigger and doing so at 160.

I may be a huge Wright stan, but I feel he can go to 154 and make some noise still. He looked like the Winky of old to me, for the most part.

 

Yeah, Taylor walked through a lot of his shots. Had Winky had more pop in that fight, Taylor leaves the ring on a stretcher. Winky won that damn fight.

 

This! End thread/

 

Winky should fight K9 at 154.

HERE'S THE FULL FIGHT..

 

I actually thought Wright looked OK . . . AT TIMES. . . He just doesn't belong at 160, especially now that he's older, and feebler. . .

But he was pressing the fight a lot more than I thought, and was landing some clean, flush shots. . Even flurrying him out on the ropes. . But his punches weren't even coming close to haivng an effect on big ass, natural 168 pound Quillen. . .

You could tell Wright was rusty as hell, especially the first few rounds. . . Perhaps one of the best jabs of the past few decades - he was kind of "pushing it", and it wasn't as straight, and crisp as usual. . But he started snapping that chain out there better around the 4th-5th.
