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.
