Taylor was the "house" fighter, that might be the best way of putting it. Anyway, I had the fight a draw, so I don't think the judges were unfairly swayed in any direction. If Winky didn't like the decision, then he shouldn't have fought the 12th round like he did.

I also don't understand the people who criticize Taylor for not looking good in his last 3 fights, when the two guys he faced, Hopkins and Winky, are the two most difficult guys to look good against of the last 10 years.
Someone explain how to win in entertaining fashion against Hopkins and Wright, because no one has done it yet.
Truth be Told ! Amen my brother ! O0

A fighter fights to his personality, Ithink the fan identifies with that personality and that style and nothing going to change it and velcro is a ripoff
