    Lok please, :nono: ,..That's what the gloves are for, not the shoulder or the back, the gloves, it should be the only thing allowed to defend yourself.

    LMAO at the people who think Winky is exciting. No wonder you guys bent over and took the PPV "superfight" farce as entertainment. This fight has MAJOR signs of a stinkout. Hopkins and Wright have proven more times than not they are the most celebrated boring fighters of all time.

    remember when Pea won every round against Chavez and ODH, only to be robbed. remember when Pea beat Trinidad by decision and was robbed again? Poor Pea. He just has bad luck. Everyone's against him. I'm not even sure he's ever been hit clean by anyone.

    Stinky - Bore-nard is going to be horrible. It's probably going to be the only PPV I don't order.

    On that night, I'll probably go to a ballet or poetry slam reading in the city with the lady. At least it'll lead to me getting laid that night.

    Trinidad nearly killed Pea in the ring.

    Pea in his prime was still more exciting than Fraud though.

    How come nobody says that the shoulder roll defense should be banned when James Toney uses it? I'll Holla 5000

    Thank you Tyler. It had to be said.

    Bore-nard and Stinky are "accomplished" fighters, but they are horrible to watch. I can name 10 things I'd rather do on a Saturday night than watch Bore-nard and Stinky trade jabs all night.

    Fraud uses the "turn my back" defense. Toney uses the shoulder roll. There's a difference.

    Agreed, if you want the most boring pressure style ever invented, Winky Wright is for you. He's able to cover both sides of his body and skull up with his arms because his forehead stops at his eyebrows, I only just figured that out.

    Exactly. The shitheads on here will say "Winky throws tons of punches, he's exciting!" Bullshit.

    Crabbing up and flinging out jabs and crosses with no power on them is not exciting.

    Basically Stinky is a very highly rated slap boxer.

    If Fraud was forced to defend the left side of his body and head with his gloves and forearms like everybody else, that would sure open up ALOOOOOT of holes, but as it is, you can't hit him with anything on his left side or with an uppercut,..and ofcourse he's got two hands to spare to cover up his other side,..what a BULLSHIT style.

    REAL 'defensive brilliance' is guys like Winky or Joshua Clottey. :nono:

    yes. that's my point. Hopkins and Wright are both more exciting than RJJ. the only RJJ fight since the 90's that has been half decent was RJJ/Tarver I.
