Mid 30s and going down almost a stone in weight for your next fight is not a good move.

Winky should stay at 170+ for his final run in the business and be looking at fighting trinidad, dawson and co
Fair enough. Based on how he looked versus Nard, I figured 168 might be a better fit for him.

I just dont honestly see another world title in him to be honest.

Most of the old 154/160 fighters move up to 175 at the back end of their careers as its much easier to make the weight and fighting eachother earn themselves decent paydays.

Hopkins-Tarver
Winky-Hopkins
RJJ-Trinidad
Johnson-RJJ
Are you friggin serious The guys you mentioned with the exception of Tito and Wright all have been at 175 for numerous years with the exception of Bhop who admitted being a lightheavy all along who cut to mke 160..

So your saying he should stay a chubby fighter who will lose stamina down the stretch only cause he is getting old That is as flawed a logic I have ever heard

You know Winky started at Welterweight right and so did Tito.. They both looked terribly out of shape at 170 but yea all fighters at championship level do that
