Arthur Abraham-Winky Wright would be a great fight

the only fight left for Winky is Taylor and then he should probably retire before he starts taking beatings....Winky won't make $$$ fighting anyone else at 160...the only other fight for Winky is DLH at 154, but we know DLH won't take that fight...

Bad matchup for him. If somehow he won, it would do wonders for his legacy and would seal his spot as an all time great, but even Winky said he's no super middleweight or light heavyweight.

I'd really love to see him and Taylor fight again. That was a very entertaining fight. I was very anxious about how it was going to end as they went down the stretch with Taylor's eye being messed up.

Hmmmm... as I see it, Taylor goes up in weight after the avlik fight. maybe Taylor and Winky could face off at 168, then face Calzaghe-Kessler winner, but I think Winky's right to go back down further. 154 and finish against Spinks, maybe.

Have to say though, I felt he showed his age slightly the other night. He couldn't seem to fire off the jab as effectively as usual, and this is not good for someone who neither has an obvious plan b nor a particularly hard punch (however, I'm not part of the camp that thinks that either Winky or PBF are feather fisted, they both have enough pop to gain and opponent's respect).

Arthur Abraham-Winky Wright would be a great fightyou know those 2 styles compliment each other very well..arthur uses alot of jabs but is a power puncher at heart while winky is a pure boxer who goes toe to toe:think could be amazing could be a jab fest...which i dont mind at all i like a tactical boxing match and winky's workrate and determination is especially good...no way should he of gone to 170 doesnt help anyone

Exactly and Winky has a good chance against either Abraham or Taylor/Pavlik.

Taylor said it's his last fight in 160 so I doubt he'll fight Winky in 160. Winky should fight Pavlik or Sturm.

If Pavlik beats Taylor I see that fight as a strong possibility.

I wouldnt rule out a match against Roy jones Jr either though...
