Winky Wright vs Roy Jones who wins????

[Puya]

Interesting fight.

I think RJJ can make 168 as well as Winky. Might edge RJJ do for the fact of experience. Winky is no Ko artist so that could give Roy the confidence of fight his style without the fear of getting hurt again

Ooh, this IS a toughie...
As much as i would like to say RJJ runs away with it, i really cant be so sure.

I mean, it all comes down to effectiveness and activity.

Roy has the footwork, hand-speed & power advantages to put his plan in action but Winkys defenece would make RJJ's attacks look ineffective for large portions of the fight.

I say large portions but Roy dosen't really throw the sort of numbers Winky can.

Also, apart from his fleety foot-work, Roy has no defence. So with Winky pressing in the unique way that he does, its a fair comment to say that he'd continuously be in scoring range while not actually walking onto anything.... Worse still he could even make Roy look negative, reduce his numbers or make him fight at an uncomfortable pace and tire him out.

With that said, it could be obvious to some just how much im overlooking Roy's talents here. Thats only because its easy to assume Roy would dominate given his naturally superior physical attributes and abilities.

But attributes aside... Its styles... and skills that makes fights.

Despite what ive just said, im gonna go with Roy via UD but if they had ever met at 160 and Winky had won, i wouldnt of been suprised.

[AdamGB]

hahah... I just noticed who made the thread... Baller27.

He loves Winky Wright, he doesn't seem to realise that he is a fairly small man yet he always throws his name out with super Middle weights and light heavys.

One of his traights... which fighter from 147-170 beats this fighter from 147 to 170. (they cannot be in the same weight class... )

roy has no defence because no one can hit him he is too quick its like herol graham all over again ahhh :P

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

lol Yeah, Herol had unearthly like reflexes, but he incoperated that in textbook head movements

[Mintymen]

Winky is good, but against a very unorthodox style RJJ, even today IMO he would lose either by KO or Decision

[Preme]

when Taylor actualy worked, winky looked like he was on his way to a loss. Now think of RJJ, stronger, faster and slyer than taylor, not to manetion roy would be working every second of every round, i really don think winky would or could go the distance with Roy.

Then he has defense. Beacause no one can hit him. Avoiding offense is a defense.

It's tough to say with RJJ speed and reflexes on a decline. Winky seems to be at or just passing the peak of his career. I still think RJJ is too quick for Winky. Winky would probably block most of them, but RJJ would win on points from being the busier fighter.

I agree with you Mr. spine_buster. Awesome reflexes is part of Roy Jones Jr.'s defense. Or should I say it is his defense at all. It just happened that he has is own style of defense by avoiding punches same way as Winky Wright blocking punches while standing still in front of his opponent. It was effective for him for more than a decade. He was very confident with that flashy and flamboyant style thats why he earned a lot of fans. Then there came Antonio Tarver and his left cross that ended RJJ's career. He clearly lost his confidence on his style that's why he lost to Glen Johnson. But for me he has a great defense because he was depending on his reflexes.

And regarding on who shall win when RJJ and Winky fight... I have to go with Winky even if Im a Roy Jones fan. Winky is just the master of spoiling his opponents night by frustrating them. He has proven that he can overwhelm offensive juggernauts such as Mosley and Trinidad. But I dont think he has the power to knockout Roy. Remember RJJ has fought legit heavyweights before his chin was cracked by Tarver. So i think Winky will win by UD as usual but Roy would have his moments too.

why do yoy say Winky would stop Roy

[uNstRuNg_HeRo]

why do yoy say Winky would stop Roy

If you're talking to me, I never said Winky would win by knockout. What I said is he would win by a close UD. Im saying this because I think the only way to stop Winky is to knock him out. And its also because Roy is offensive minded like Shane Mosley and Trinidad whom Winky has defeated. But I said Roy would also have his moments. He would land combinations and shake Winky. But i think he wont be able to knockout Winky because he has a great chin. He proved it against Taylor who is a legit middleweight.

[BrooklyniteQueen]

No I wasn't talking to you. Sorry I meant the people saying that Winky would stop Roy

[Scrap]

I like Winky a lot, but against Roy not a chance in hell.

[Jody Lane]

R U ON DRUGS ?
RJJ KO 4 EASY WITH WINKY IS GOOD FIGHTER JONES WAS ALL TIME GREAT !!!!!!!!
KEEP TAKING THE PILLS DUDE !!!!!!!!!!

I disagree. Winky at this point would beat Jones by UD regardless of weight.
