Winky says, "I fought an HBO fighter, with a HBO trainer, on HBO!" So what did you expect the outcome to be? (Boxingtalk.com) --Winky connected more punches than Jermaine as well.

Not at all. Winky lost took the fight away from himself and he needs to be a man and realize that. He had the fought won if would have come out and did something other than dance in the final round. He has no one to blame for the decision but himself, all he had to do was come out and fight for the last 3 minutes. Those comments make me lose a lot of respect for him.

Although I think Winky won the fight, a fighter should not assume he has the fight in the bag. To some degree I feel Winky helped the out come of that fight by not doing more in the last round. I want a rematch.

I think that Winky fought a good fight, and out landed Taylor, but he didn't do enough to take the title, you can't lay off in the last round of a championship fight and expect the judges to give you the match, especially the hometown favorite.

He robbed himself. He pulled a Oscar Delahoya. If a champion has to lose his belt, he has to lose (or win) his belt for 12 rounds. The champion will usually have the benefit of the doubt if the scores are close. Oscar took it easy towards the end of the fight against Trinidad---and lost. Winky took it easy against Jermaine---and lost. Maybe next time, he'll learn how to fight a COMPLETE fight,.

Yes, Winky Wright is definitely a better fighter and he whipped Taylors Butt!
