    Spot on mate.

    He demand too much. He thought he is the one filling the seats. Make no mistake he is a great fighter it's just that he isn't just as entertaining like the others. In short he's a boring type fighter.

    One problem also is that he hates the decision of the judges if it goes against his way. The way he fights(2 by KO since 1999), man it's always 12r sparring session. The judges do the scoring the way they see it. Lets be honest here, we hate the judges decision sometimes cause there's a doubt on the way they score it. But thats the way winky fight. And he complains if he doesn't get the nod of the judges. He sucks and better start knocking opponent to avoid controvertial decision.

    peace.

    Along with his rejection of the Kessler fight, he turned down a 5 million Dollar offer to fight Taylor in an immediate rematch.

    He needs to learn that- How good you are, doesn't always equal how much money you make---ask Ivan Calderon.


    Causal Fans do not want to watch a fight that has no possibility of a knockout ending: winky is to good to get caught with a good punch, and he cant punch hard enough to close the show.

    that is a formula for modest earnings.
