Where do you think he should rate? Most lists I saw him at he is number 2 at mw and Top15/Top20 p4p. Both is were he belongs. Winky has never built with somebody with Arthur´s power that´s true but Arthur never faced anybody close to Winky´s skill and craftiness.
Abraham-Wright, Abraham-Sturm, what's next? All good fights, but Abraham-Pavlik is the fight that really needs to happen. Pavlik should fight a tune-up first after his loss to B-HOP tho, so February will be too soon anyways... why not have Abraham-Wright and Pavlik-Marco Antonio Rubio on the same card in Vegas in February, as a double-headliner, and then Abraham-Pavlik (if they both get past their opponents) at MSG in the summer? Forget Sturm, he won't fight any of them anyways...
BS. Sturm accepted Abraham´s last offer but Abraham´s promoter making excuses now. Like Sturm said: "Arthur and I are ready it´s just about our promoters." btw. Sturm beat Abraham two times in the amateurs.
sturm is a ***** and will hide behind the "promoter card" funny how the only offer sturms people accepted supposedly was that arthur would do it for free. and who cares about the amateurs..... henry tillman beat mike tyson 2 times in the amateurs kevin barry beat holyfield int he olympics that means ZERO!!! atsch
Just how will he be exposed? Winky cant hurt him. AA has a better variety of punchs and combinations. AA also has better defence and can counterpunch. AA can knock him out.
You dont even back up your opinion with any solid facts. Winky is a very boring fighter to watch and could not evn hurt Ike ay 160. Yet somehow you think he exposes AA. Hard to take you seriously at all. Also why did you mention Calzaghe? I know you picked Roy to beat him and Cal beat the **** out of Roy.
It is 99.9% certain that Kelly is fighting Rubio in Youngstown on Feb. 21st. It is/ was supposed to be a split broadcast between Kelly and Cotto. Kelly in Y-town, Cotto in AC. However, I don't think HBO likes Cotto's opponent, so that may not happen. However, they may be able still do a split with AA vs Winky. I doubt AA v Winky will happen in Ytown, so they would need a location. I am intrigued with the AA v Winky match-up. I think it depends on how much ring-rust Winky comes in with. If Winky is sharp, I think he can win a decision. If not, he gets KO'd. I would like to see this happen to build up an AA v KP fight.
This could be quite the chess match. Probably bore the **** out of the casual fight fan, but it's an excellent match-up.
I wouldn't give anyone much of an edge in defense and counter punching to Winky actually. And you don't have to hurt someone to beat them. That said at this time I would give the edge to AA but if he has any technical weaknesses winky could expose them which is why it's a good test.
Last year at this time I would have picked Winky to win this, but Abraham has impressed me lately and made me change my opinion about him. Add to that Winky's inactivity and I could see AA being the favorite here. Good fight if it happens.
