Quartey doesn't do anything convincingly anymore. Hell, neither does Wright for that matter.

I don't see Quartey moving up to Middleweight

well apparently they've signed the contract and I don't hear anything about it being at 154 so apparently he is. More likely that Quartey would move up to 160 then Winky move down to 154, he's the one with the leverage.

Re: Winky Wright-Ike Quartey signed
Is this going to go head to head with Cotto/Margarito card? I know which one I would watch if I only had 2 choice. Winky UD and I think Lacy has a bright future,I have begun to like him alot and think he will rule the division when Calzaghe retires. I want to see Lacy Kessler!
-
Re: Winky Wright-Ike Quartey signed
Winky will school Quartey at this point, i dont see Quartey giving any trouble to Winky what so ever.
-
Re: Winky Wright-Ike Quartey signed
Agreed cockey cockney, i believe Winky will have a wide UD, he will frustrate Quarty to the point Ike will become ragged, and suffer Winkeys slick counters.
I personally would fear for the supper middleweight divison if Lacy became the top man. Especially after the crushing defeat he suffered to the hands of Calzaghe.

Re: Winky Wright-Ike Quartey signed
I bet no matter who wins this fight, your going have 20 people on this forume declaring it a robbery.
I'll be ready for all the Winky/Qartey got robbed threads after this one.

I don't see Lacy being the future of the division I think Kessler is a better fighter than him. Kessler Calzaghe would be more competitive than Kessler Lacy imo, that's how much better I feel Kessler is.. I guess we will see, but remember Calzaghe and Kessler are fighting on HBO back to back, if they both blast out their opponents it would be a superfight for 4 belts, and if Kessler dominates Beyer especially it would make the fight likely..

Re: Winky Wright-Ike Quartey signed
Hard fight against a hard fighter...Winky will handle him though.

I wish that I had a crystal so that I could atleast pick who everyone's going for after they bail out on Kessler. ;D
A year & a half before Calzaghe handed Lacy his ass...Lacy was KOTW...look at him now.

Re: Winky Wright-Ike Quartey signed
It should be interesting, I guess one of these days Winky's gonna have to start falling off at least a little bit but he's crafty enough to where even if he falls off physically he can still be effective.
Seems to me that whoever backs the other guy up is most likely to win, both guys are more comfortable on the front foot. I'd be pretty surprised if Winky doesn't pull out a UD

no idea, of course Winky saying its on, and them already having a location and date is good enough to think its credible.

Re: Winky Wright-Ike Quartey signed
There is no way in the world that Quartey will win this fight.

What was I thinking? Wright does that to every big name he faces.

Re: Winky Wright-Ike Quartey signed
Did you all see the Quartey-Forest fight. Quartey was robbed, no doubt. But if you think that either of those lame ass boxers stand a chance in hell against Winky I guess I disagree. Washed up they are.

Re: Winky Wright-Ike Quartey signed
I am sure Vernon is pissed off because Quartey is getting a big fight before him, but it's good that boxing fans aren't going to stand for this robbery bullshit, in the record books it say's Vernon won the fight but we see who got the reward. Good job fans.

I dont think Ike will win either but its the 1st time Wright is facing a guy who can match him for jabs . Exceeds him in power , and is just as quick . The layoff os what will upset Ike and his workrate is pretty poor , I can see Wright outscoring him .
On the otherhand Wright Imo lost to Taylor last time , he struggled with Soliman , Vargas , Vasquez and Simon all showed that pressure is the way to beat Wright and Ike did a good job of applying the pressure for the 1st 6 rounds against Forrest

Yea but Forrest displayed no jab, and had no problem letting Quartey back him up repeatedly.. Winky is much stronger than either of those 2, who were great welterweight fighters.. I just can't see Ike being the stronger guy in there, which he would almost need to be, it's whoever can back the other guy up that will win this fight.. And I couldn't see it being Quartey.

Yeah but Ike is the bigger hitter so that may make Wright think twice . Now I think Wright will win so im just playing devils advocate with you but would you not agrre that Ike is less 1 dimensional than Tito . Ike can pressure but he can also box aswel . Whilst I dont think he can sustain the pace that Simon could , he does posses more class , punch power speed and a better jab .

They were nowhere near as one-sided as Wright-Trinidad

Personally I would have rather seen Vernon get his rear handed to him by Winky

I do. Sam Soliman gave Winky all kinds of trouble, mostly because of his huge punch out put, but still, Winky is not unbeatable as some claim, though I think he edged that fukin Taylor fight. Still I don't like the arrogant bastard. I think Quartey can cause Winky trouble, both have a great jab and high guard, maybe he won't beat Wright, but he'll give him a run for his money IMO. Gald Quartey is gettin this fight and NOT Forrest, after that BS gift decision.

Re: Winky Wright-Ike Quartey signed
Just like tito vs winky, not many thought winky could win, I the same thing could happen again, no one thinks Quartey can win, but he has a style to rival winky's IMO. He's tricky, has a quick jab, and throws accurate leather, and plenty of it. 9 times out of 10 i'd say winky wins this one, but just when you rule someone out completly, they come up with the goods. Saying that, he's pretty old now, but there's 2 guys in every fight!

Ok Soliman landed 110 punches in that fight and he threw over 1000 punches do you know how defensively great that makes Winky?

Delusions again.
A Soliman 17% connection rate does not equate to all kinds of trouble.
I love you & all that shit...& the banter is fun...but sometimes...this thing of you blaming me for stupidity & drunkenness...well that's a little bit of the pot calling the kettle black.
If anyone's given Winky competition of late...it was the second MOsley fight...but being able to compete does not equal beat.

You love me...? :'( ;D Any how man, punchstats can say what they want, Winky thought he had Soliman outta there, Sam came back and outworked Winky in the later rounds. He gave Winky a hell of a run for his money, and Wright knows it. James Toney says he thinks Soliman shoulda won that fight, so there ya go. And Soliman ain't no Hall of Famer, not to take anything away from him. Anyhoo, Quartey should be a more difficult opponent for Wright than Ouma will be for Taylor.

i could be wrong, but i remember hearing/reading reports that winky had some wicked ass flu the night he fought soliman
i dont even wanna get out of bed or do anything when i got the flu, i cant imagine what it would be like to go 12 rounds with a pro fighter
