He was knocked down 5 times in the Vazquez fight. And contrary to internet myth from people who didn't see the fight they weren't all "slips." He was badly hurt by some of them and stunned by others.

I don't mind making a round 10-9 even with a knockdown, I do it a lot more than judges do, but most of those were hard to call 10-9, Winky might have won the rounds except for the knockdown but he didn't totally dominate them. If you gave Vasquez credit for all the knockdowns there's no mathematical possibility that Winky could have won. You really would have had to been very liberal with your scoring to give Winky the fight. It was clearly a legitimate loss. But that was really a different Winky, he settled down as he got older, a prime Winky would have had no problems, even though Vazquez was a solid fighter.
