Winky says HBO is trying to get him in the ring in FEB against Abraham

Boo is a big Pavlik fan, but how does Pavlik moving up 10 pounds and losing to an ATG make him no longer THE man at 160? I don't think anyone beats Pavlik at 160 either. Winky is the guy I would pick to beat him, but I think he would be weight drained at this point in his career.

 

Nobody believes Pavlik is #1 at 160??? Once again you prove that you are a crack addled ****** that doesn't follow boxing.

Pavlik is the only unified middleweight champion of the world. He's the linear champ, and won the title from a guy who beat the longest reigning middleweight champ in history. Arthur is a regional star who won a vacant title in a fight with a guy who never accomplished a ****ing thing in boxing.

Abraham has NEVER done anything that even comes close to proving he belongs in the ring with Winky or Pavlik. Winky will beat AA very clearly if they fight. AA is ****ing target practice for Pavlik.

If you had sense enough to pour **** out of a boot, you'd just admit that I'm right. However, I fully expect you to continue to make an ass of yourself like you have from your very first post.

One key ingredient is missing: Arm length. Part of the reason the shell defense works so well for Wright is that he has ungodly long arms. That allows him to keep his head and body both protected. Arthur has rather short arms and must choose to protect one or the other.

Wait -- I just thought of a second missing ingredient: SKILL! Arthur is no where near Winky's level. assuming of course that winky can still operate at the level he was at when he fought JT. That version of Wright would outclass Abraham rather easily.

 

Abraham is actually a very skilled boxer. He choses to fight like he does, but he can fight in many ways.

 

i haven't seen alot of winky fights but isn't he a primarily defensive fighter with a good jab? and abraham utilitizes the same defense with sporadic bursts of punches..with their styles won't the fight get a bit boring??

 

Good post. I agree.
