i don't know who the fucks gonna win this? i'm rooting for taylor but winky aint no walk in the park. i was wrong with the hopkins fight and 90 percent of the time i can tell who's gonna win. now i don't know? i'm just glad to see some taylor supporters here cause i see alot of b-hop fans and i never thought hopkins won any of those fights. i think the crying he did when he lost caused all the controversy. i know yall gonna hate me for that but thats what i believe. i'm not gonna sit here and argue with no one about it cause thats truely what i beleive.

Winky! I hate to see either of them lose, but Wright just has that Jab and that inpenatrable defense. Look at what he did to Trinidad. Taylor hasn't proven himself yet, he hasn't beaten a good fighter convincingly yet. I thought Hopkins won their first fight, the 2nd fight could of went either way.. Winky is younger than Hopkins, has the same good defense, and he's tall. I just think that Taylor has his hands full. Who's the favorite btw?

Draw.



It was a pretty entertaining fight though, I don't think Winky should've let up in the later rounds, he was winning that fight. I want to see a rematch, but Winky said he didn't want one.

i think that it was a great fight with a terrible decision. the only thing that taylor had going for him was that he was throwing hard shots, but winky landed 129 power shots to jermaine's 128. winky also landed 70 more jabs and his connection % was much higher. on top of that he was pressing the action for the majority of the fight by continuing to go at taylor. also taylor's left eye was completely shut. winky was robbed

it was a close fight no doubt. but how could final punch stats mean nothing if he is landing more punches by a substantial amount ? maybe winky wasnt robbed but he definetely should have been given the decision. taylor hasnt proven anything as far as im concerned. his last three fights were won by controversial decisions. garbage.

OBVIOUSLY THIS WAS A CLOSE ASS FIGHT. I THINK TECHNICALLY, WINKY SHOULD HAVE WON THAT DECISION AND OBVIOUSLY WOULD HAVE HAD HE STEPPED UP THE ATTACK IN THE FINAL ROUND. WITH THAT BEING SAID, TAYLOR DID IMPRESS ME. HIS POWER BLOWS ARE SAVAGE AND WINKY HAS NEVER TAKEN A BEATING LIKE THAT... BY WINKY SAYING HE WON'T GIVE TAYLOR A REMATCH IT KINDA MAKES ME FEEL LIKE WINKY HIMSELF THINKS HE LOST. OVERALL, A VERY ENTERTAINING FIGHT!

Final punchstats do not reflect actual scoring.

A person can land 100 in 3 rounds (exaggeration) and be shut down the rest.
The opponent can steadily land 20 solid punches a round and come out with less puches landed, but will probably win more rounds. Just an exaggerated example, to make it easier to understand.

Overall Compubox means nothing. Compux round has some reflection of how the round went, but still not much. The round is given for aggressiveness (pressure), effectiveness, ring generalship, and punching. Compubox only shows one stat.

The round stat matters, but the overall doesn't mean much.

now for controversy this is REAL controversy. these dudes were throwing blows ang going back and forth the whole fight. i think both fighters needed the 12th round and they kinda took it off. imo No One Lost that fight and i was content with a draw. at the same time no one single handedly won that fight it went either way.

b-hop fans are gonna go with winky based on taylor winning in this so called controversy. at least hopkins gave it up to taylor showing his respects to emanuel

i seriously could'nt call the fight up to the 12th.

taylor had him with the power shots in the middle of the ring, wright had the jab and scored some rounds with taylor in the corner but they both showed heart and went back and fourth all night.

i'd luv to see a rematch even though wright said he would'nt do it it was a great fight and i think he'll reconsider after he sees it himself.

Actually, a draw isn't looking too bad neither (14 to 1). 21 to 1 is the average spread on a draw.
You know I am really kicking myself for this one.
First off, because it closed at 16-1 and I let it go.
Second, Joey Oddessa (off shore consultant) called it and I ignored it.

good decision but i had taylor winning 115-113 but im a taylor fan so i gave him some close rounds.. winky dissapointed me after the fight during his interview. he said he doesnt want a rematch , there are other fights out there and everyone knows that he is the real champ... thats weak in my opinion..they both fought a good fight but wink did not take the title. i cant see how he thinks that . it was a draw , he needs to accept that. jt gave winky hella props and respect after the fight. wink should have done the same.

Hometown advantage does play its part. Winky is by far the better fighter IMO. Cant take anything from Taylor. His conditioning power and heart is of a champion, But His lack of expierence shows. His defence suffers as well as his stance. That shit equals "knocked the fuck out" if he's in the ring with a seasoned power puncher rather than a technition.

good points , but i think he is getting better every fight. he looked alot better tonight then he did against b hop. i think emanuel stewart will do alot of good for him.
