Anyone else think Winky is easy money tonight?

[Kev]

I'm thinking of putting a bet on. I'm not sure how much Winky has left but if he's still as good as he was when he fought Jermain Taylor I think he can beat Williams, maybe even dominate him.

I'm a bit worried about his legs but I think a prime Winky hands Williams a boxing lesson.

Very interested to see how this pans out and wouldn't be at all suprised if Williams loses a wide decision and gets embarrassed like Pavlik did against B Hop.

Wright will beat Williams convincingly. They're both leftys and the Williams-Quintana 1 is the perfect blueprint for Winky. I hope he's got enough gas to put pressure on Williams.

I dont know Bilbo,its one of those fights where anything is possible, if i had to put my head on the block id say Williams to fresh and busy for Winky at this stage of there careers. UD Williams.

I gotta disagree, i do think it's more of a safe bet dropping dough on williams but winky will never be a easy opponet for anyone.

It's amazing to me to see how many people think it will be an easy fight for either guy.

This is going to be a close competitive fight. Even though I favor Williams, I'm definately not confident enough to put on bet down.

Yeah I know its just it has the potential of being a blowout either way I think.

If Winky is done and his legs are gone I'd fancy Williams to easily control the fight and win with no problems but if Winky is still in shape and still has it in I really think he can take advantage of Williams rather crude style and totally outbox him.

I want to root for the old champ, he never really got his due and it would be great if he could turn in a Trinidadesque masterclass here.

I'm envisioning Williams throwing loads of punches early but getting caught time and time again before his offensive output is halved as he cannot get to Winky.

I also think cuts will play a factor and I can see Williams getting busted up, bad swellings etc.

I'm going out on a limb and prediction a lop sided Winky win or even a late stoppage in his favour.

Of course the smart money would be on a split decision win for Williams with Winky protesting he was robbed, ha actually this really could be the best bet of all Williams razor thin SD

Well I was right,,,Either he as going to show his ge or do a Bhop...He showed his age...was not even competitive

haha that's what we love stand over the fence with a foot firmly in both sides

I actually didn't think he showed his age that much really, it was just Williams was that good. He'd have been a nightmare for Winky at any time in his career imo.

You caught that one did ya.....

In all honesty no he did not look too bad...Certainly showed he lost a few steps though...The long layoff may have really been a big factor in his performance....
The work rate of Williams was just too much for Winky to deal with

I think the main factor is that Williams is just a whole lot more awkward to figure out than we realised.

I actually (suprisingly) liked Larry Merchant's pre fight analysis about how in battles between old champs and young stars its usually speed that kills.

I think Williams workrate was just to much and he threw far too many combinations for Winky to handle.

It's difficult to see who could beat him at 147-154 but Quintana managed it so he can't be unbeatable.

If he makes a mark at 160 I'd love to see Joe come out of retirement and give him an boxing lesson.

I guess its possible however that a fight with Bernard Hopkins is not completely out of the picture at a 170 catchweight if neither can get a big fight later this year.

After what Williams did to Winky and Hopkins did to Pavlik that would make for an intriguing fight.

He certainly did little to prove he is the most feared man in boxing...In fact as a MW IMO his power is dramatically lessened...

Hs team was smart to turn down a fight with Pavlik in the past and after last night regardless of out put he does not have the steam to keep a Pavlik or AA off of him....

I think either of the two champions would make sport of him.......

A fight with Sturm at MW would be his best route right now....

Calzaghe would ruin him if Joe came out of retirement...
