Thats exactly how I'm looking at it! Winky is damn near 40 and he doesnt keep himself up like Hopkins. I guess time will tell.
I am extremely confident that Winky wins this one, and does so much more impressively than most would ever suspect. :good But then again, I was equally confident that DLH would slay Pacquiao!
Williams isn't a monster. But damn, if Jermain Taylor understood that volume was the key to beating Winky, you know Williams will be on the same page.
Winkey gets a beat down and is stopped in about the 10th round . Winkey is not the Winkey of old. plus paul seems to have correct most of the mistakes he made agianst Quintana and Quintana and winkey are to totaly different styles. this will not be fun to watch for any winkey fan.
high activity or dirty tactice is the key to deal with winkey also angles and diversity. look at all of winkeys best wins it has come agianst guy who tried to break the shell but if you take a look at the vargas fight vargas threw punches from every angle same with his draw with taylor taylor although going to the ropes did well when he threw a lot of punches from different angles. PW has all that except for the dirty tactics. he willbeat winkey and the ref will be forced to stop it
due to his age and what i mentioned above yes. anybody thinking winkey is the same fighter from yester year is on shrooms. for instance im a big tyson fan when the Tyson vs Lewis fight came around i picked tyson by ko in 5. the reason why i picked tyson is becuse i judged him on his greatest win and at his peak i took thaty tyosn with all his movement ,power ,speed and freocity and put him in with the current lewis . totaly negelcting the fact that all those attributes tyson had were erroded. thats the problem with great fighers, fan fail to see when that fighters abilities have diminished and see the next upcoming fight as him coming out aginast a lesser fighter in talent and thinking its the same fighter from 5-10years back. winkey will be beaten down and will eaither go out on his ass or the ref will stop the barrage of punches on the rope i see him on his ass.
It's an interesting fight indeed. Not sure if the ring rust will due Winky in, but my money is still on Winky.
haha i know i aint go out n say it pw got the actvitiy and has shown he can box multiple styles and go the distance winky is 2 years of rust and against bhop started wearing down after round 10 winkster will come prepared and look good but pw SHOULD pull it out
Winky was at a weight too heavy for him when he fought Bhop. That could account for the 'wearing down'. What if Winky comes in 'well rested' instead of 'rusted? :huh
i forgot that fight was @ a heavier weight.... nah i think winky is going to come to the right prepared... pw isnt the type of guy you go up against when your rusty
That's funny, because I remember him being thoroughly outclassed by the very mediocre Quintana who countered him at will. Sure, Paul looked good in the rematch, but did he ever really prove he could handle that style? Nope! The rematch was far too short to prove that, ergo, your claim is factually incorrect. :smoke
