Then he gets the scraps of what was left of Trinadad after Hopkins destroyed him Winky needs to shut up and just fight.
are you blind? He easily was beating Vargas, and he easily deserved the win against Taylor, it was close, but not that close. He lost a close fight against B-Hop when he was fighting a weight class weight higher for him than Quartey coming up to face him. Also beating Mosley that close to his prime is still beating Mosley, the only problem I have with that is Oscar beat him worse in their fight right before and still lost the decision.
Totally disagree Vargas vs Winky was very razor thin close, Vargas come on strong in later rounds throwing like 90+ punches if i remember right and Vargas earned a draw on my card. Sorry but if you think Winky easily beat Vargas then you are the one that is blind or maybe i misread that let me know if you reply. And as for Taylor vs Winky another close fight that i had Winky winning but mostly every boxing fan had that razor thin close fight, sorry Taeth you make good points but just because someone has different opinion to you doesn't make them wrong, if they had Taylor and Vargas winning then thats fair enough its not like they were clear cut wins for Wright both fights were very close.

And one last thing i disagree with is that Mosley was was close to his prime against Wright, i totally disagree with that Mosley was above his natural weight class and was coming off 2 bad losses to Wright and a controversial win vs ODLH in which i didn't think he looked impressive. Now i don't think it would of mattered if Mosley was in his peak i just think Wright had his number, but Mosley was in a slump for quite awhile in his career it was during 1st Forrest fight in which he seemed to have badly been effected by the head butt. And also the battering off Forrest didn't help his confidence either, i think Mosley regained some of his old form when he fought Collazo and sparked out Vargas in the rematch.
Agreed, Like I said, Wright was lucky to get a chance with two big names in a row because they were both coming out of losses and/or retirement and needed a legit champion to get them back on track. All respect for Winky in stepping up and spoiling their plans. By the time Winky was done with Mosley mosley was 1 - 4 with 1 no contest in his last 6 fights. And as ICE said, that one win was very controversial.
