Winky Wright-Paul Williams - Let's Talk!!!

[Fenster]

I didn't know you actually watched boxing, booze. Surprising.

Should be a good fight this, I watched two hours of preview telly last night so I imagine it will be on the box this weekend.

Williams by decision for me. Winky is getting on and Williams youth, reach and output will make the difference. He will just keep punching the guard and any way around it for 12 rounds. I think Winky will have his moments, but he isn't going to outwork Williams.

I think this could be a great fight, and I keep changing my mind over it. Right now I'm slightly favouring Williams, but then I think about how technically good Winky is & I change my mind. I reckon it will be a close SD, but dunno who it goes too.

[Jody Lane]

I am going out on a limb, like I usually do (and thoroughly hang myself by the balls when I am wrong, which is 90 percent of the time) and predict that in the almost two years that Wright has been off that he will have aged over night and Williams wins convincingly, possibly by KO.

[Hunter]

I never really liked Winky and am hoping he loses but now that I know he is Booze's favorite fighter I really hope he takes a beating and gets KO'd.

[Spicoli]

Ohh this should be good

[Rantcatrat]

It should be great. Will Winky take Williams to school the way Hopkins took Pavlik and Mosley took Margarito? If this goes to the cards, will Williams' high output win the day? In the alternative, will Winky's defense and accurate shots win him the rounds?

I too vacillate over this fight. Here's the most popular way to look at it and why the odds favor Williams: Williams punch output wins the fight. Williams will throw a lot of punches and although many of them may miss their mark or hit Winky's gloves, they will accumulate. Winky isn't hyper active and doesn't have big punching power. He may not be able to do enough against Williams' youth.

Another outcome could be that Winky makes it difficult for Williams to throw flurries by holding and blocking the blows and that Williams at 160 against elite opposition isn't as mobile and as active as has been. Will Pwill be able to adjust?

Game time decision for me.

Question for everyone: when was the last time Winky faced a taller opponent who throws a lot of punches?
