    In that case Winky's the most 1-D mofo I've ever seen! haha



    ------------------

    Yeah, I Floyd even stated that Holyfield was a greater boxer than
    Jones Jr. because he could box from the outside and inside,
    while Jones couldn't go on the inside. His words.
    Floyd is well rounded, but I have a feeling he's going to end
    up like Leonard in Duran Leonard I, and think he can get on the
    inside of a superb volume puncher.
    Hope Floyd isn't listening. haha Because I'm going to bet on that!!!
    And I seriously feel that's how he's going to get his first loss,
    because he believes he's invincible.
    ha!!! Most one demensional fighters you can find a way to beat!!! Winky is the exception to the rule

    Winky isn't 1 dimensional as can be seen from earlier fights in his career(ie Vargas fight etc) whereby his style is quite different to what it is now. Pacquiao when fighting JMM was REALLY 1 dimensional but has improved so I don't think he fits here anymore. Ummm,maye Barrios is 1 dimensional?

    i wouldnt say winky is one dimentional, i'd say it would be just a extremely simple yet effective two or three dimensions...
    all it is is long arms great defence good solid combinations timing and a bit of movement,
    in no particular order, and not even all in any particular fight, except the good punches and defence

    I think what makes a fighter one dimensional is if somebody has technique that trumps a fighter they can adapt to win the fight. This is why somebody like Roy JOnes Jr. who didn't fight much on the inside was as versitile as any fighter when he was in his prime... He could fight off the ropes if he got caught, He could lead with his blinding speed or he could fight off his back foot and counter an opponent with his unnatural reflexes and speed. People like Evander Holyfield was a decent outside fighter, and a great inside fighter, but he lacked top end defense, and was a little to willing to slug it out instead of using superior technique and speed to win a fight, another fighter like that is Corrales who IMO could have easily beaten Castillo on the outside. Anyways IMO a person like Leonard is a perfect example of a multi-dimensional fighter... He couldn't beat Duran in the first fight at his game so he changed for the second fight. ALso against Hearns he couldn't outbox the man which is what Leonard was used to doing his entire career so he out slugged Hearns and won that fight. Sure IMO Leonard didn't have the greatest timing, and he telegraphed his punches, but he was a survivor. ANother great one is Ali.

    I couldn't agree more with Litzau but i think he made a choice because he knows that fights sell more than tactical masterpieces.

    Welcome to the forum 'Slacker'
    Heres a CC. on my behalf.....
    About Litzau eventhough I hate Teddy Atlas he couldn't be more right when he told Jason NOT to make it a habit to get into brawls like he does or he might cut his career short. Jason with the attention span of a 5 yr. old laughed and said 'Im here to entertain you guys the people, werent you entertained Teddy?

    Though it's true about the way he chooses to fight I think it would be OK to at least show he has actual skill in the ring like outboxing or making some latteral movements...

    Yeah you're completely right, he does have that big amateur pedigree with a record of 125-10. He has to have learned something in those matches. But you gotta admit, the guy is a bit of a kick to watch?

    CC. for having Miranda, that one, two shet!! just doesn't cut it at World Class. At least not just that combo alone doesn't.
    He needs to improve on throwing combos I can assure you would he have done that he would have beaten Arthur.
