    Counterpunching Floyd vs. defensive wizard Winky?

    Let me put it this way. Your forum name is "Sleepwalker".
    Which is exactly what I would be doing on my way to turn off the TV set.

    Haha, I agree there's every chance it would be dull, but Winky wasn't the defensive wizard many make him out to be. Mayweather is a hell of a lot harder to hit, and Wright would've been the agressor in this one of course due to his size. I'd imagine Floyd would pot shot his way to a close decision, but I could actually see Winky having some of the same success that Cotto did in spots. He was a much bigger and stronger man at his best and had a very good jab, I couldn't see Floyd backing him up or managing to stay off the ropes for the whole fight. If both men were truly in their best form and fought at a catchweight of 150, say, it would be an excellent technical fight at least.

    The level that Winky was slept on at 154 was a flat out shame. He was not your typical "backfoot" defensive wiz but a up close sort, elbows tucked in ribs and stepped ahead behind thick jab. I think it comes down to Mayweather (at best) having the mobility and legs to choose points of attack.

    Bring coffee...red bull...and coke to stay awake but Floyd on points.
