    You know Manny may have taught Taylor some new tricks, but is Winky the right guy to take a 'test run' on?

    I think there are many things we can argue. We can say yeah, winkys better at this , no talylors better. But there is one clear difference in the two. Power! Winky has great skill, but so does taylor. Winky I dont believe can hurt JT but I know JT can hurt winky. Will he hurt Winky? maybe, maybe not. Problem is, I dont think Ronald can afford to get caught with big shots to find out. I said that to say this. Winky could win the first 8 rounds and in round 9th move the wrong way and get caught one time and all that hard work he has put in is down the drain. See, heres the problem for winky. Trinidad stood in front of Ronald like a statue and never moved. JT will move, hes fast, and will counter winky. I hope the addition of ES has changed Jermaines wildness. He threw wild punches against bhop and was out of control at times, that is on his trainer, he fought how he was trained. Everytime Bhop ducked against JT, he should have put a big uppercut on bhop but for some reason JT never caught on to that. Anyway, I think power could be a problem for winky in this one.

    Definetly agree.. I think even those wild punches could be something Winky has never faced, I feel Taylor will be strong enough to break through his guard if he needs to.

    I've never seen Taylor devastate a top middle like Tito did with Joppy. Who's to say Taylor hits any harder than Tito who couldn't punch through Wright's guard. Taylor is NOT a counterpuncher, so he's not going to counter Winky.

    Taylor is probably quicker handed than Winky and he does have a good jab, but I've never seen Wright outjabbed. Wright's a lefty, which typically throws the orthodox jab off and his timing on the jab usually negates quick hands or reach. Taylor is going to have to straighten out his right hand and throw it hard and often.

    I don't think one camp with Emmanuel Steward is going to make a magical change in Taylor's game. I'm sure he's learning, but remember how confused guys like Oscar and Rahman looked in the fights after they changes styles/corners.

    To win the fight Taylor is going to have to 1) impose himself physically 2) throw a lot more shots than he threw against Hopkins.
