My opinion of winky wright.. Is as follows..

He is an excellent fighter.. But not a very exciting fighter..

However..Winky is an interesting boxer and an interesting person for the following reason..

Rather then just fanfare..Winky has obtained something a little different.. You can't help but like winky because he is just easy to respect.. While you might say.. I like [Insert Prospect here]
Because he has fought such entertaining fights, shown promise and talks a good game etc..
Winky has had a pretty hard career..He is american..American fighters dont usually have to leave america to fight because america is where the best competition is at and thats the place where the publicity is at..

Winky has fought all over the world.. his only losses are either a fair while ago or diputed decisions and he is a fighters fighter.. Up front..Nice guy, and he wants to fight the best..

He fights smart.. its plain to see..Especially considering the level of his competition that he is a supreme boxer..While he isnt as popular as, mosely or de la hoya..Among fight fans he is and probably will be for a fair while.. A top p4p star..

Ive said the same about jermain taylor.. He went from a grown up prospect to World champ and p4p candidate in a matter of a few fights..Cos he'll take em all on..
He fights Joppy..A gateholder of middleweights..Hes the guy whos been in with the best and you see if your world class material on..
So then he fights hopkins, Gets two decisions..Some dusputed but still this is bernard hopkins..If your beating hopkins and not getting trampled and at least half the people watching saying you won..Then you special.. Then winky.. Keeps taking these big fights..How about a fight off..We'll take ouma..Not exactly a fight off kinda fighter..Then signs to fight spinks another big name fighter..
Now thats one hell of a rec.. and you consider him and compare that to winky then thats just crazy..

He fought vargas, Disputed decision, beat the great shane mosely twice, Tito a boxing masterclass,
soliman a decent contender, taylor a disputed draw.. quartey a great fighter, and signs to fight hopkins..Fighters like winky have real stones..
And when he keeps saying i want oscar i want floyd..You know he wants those fights..

If only all fighters were like winky.. Its hard to earn the level of respect he has when you arent the most exciting fighter out
