At this point, neither fighter is better than the other. It was a draw.
Except Taylor retains his titles and is only 28 fighting in his 1st weight division. Winky has no titles is an old vet at 34 and fighting at his 2nd and most likely highest weight division. Winky needs Taylor, Taylor doesn't need Winky.
