winky made tito look like a rank amateur, he had no answer for anything wright did. wright wants a rematch but anyone who would pay to see that again is a total fool.
Wow - congrats to all Winky backers. I feel like a total idiot for thinking Tito had a chance. If he doesn't retire he should fire his father as trainer. Wright's corner was as dominant over Tito's corner as Winky was in the ring.
box and i were communicating at times and imo,i thought that wright`s wide stance.......didn`t give tito any place to put his feet....he kept stepping on wright`s feet and couldn`t set up to generate any offense....
winky looked huge....he looked like a natural middleweight...tito looked skinny compared to winky...
he never even had to set down on his shots...he just threw straight punches,did the peek-a-boo....and bounced tito`s head around with straight jabs and a few straight left hands...tito looked like a bobblehead doll...
winky stood his ground....and imposed his will...
...vs bigger,stronger guys,the old"my offense is my defense" stuff doesn`t work.....you have to move your head...at least feign defense....
tito sr. seems to believe that strategy isn`t necessary for his son...moving to his right
vs a slick lefty?.....there`s no plan b for the trinidad`s...
a masterful performance from wright.....could the guy be better at middleweight than jr middle?....
god,he looked big and strong....i really think that if had chosen to,he could have taken tito out....
thought winky`s skill would be trouble for tito....but i also thought tito`s power might travel wiith him...of course,power`s a moot point if you don`t hit anybody...
looked effortless...like a sparring session with two guys at different levels...
again...masterful performance from wright....as close to perfect as you can get...

I agree with everything you say gw, I loved how winky's corner kept him focused and reminded him constantly to not coast because this guy was a favorite of the judges, excellent advice. tito's corner instead were'nt worried until it was well past the time to panic, and it does no good to say get closer without information on how to do it. I also was shocked by wrights' size, he was obviously a bigger man, his upper body looked huge compared to tito, he looked like a full division larger than trinidad, and trinidad's whole body language coming into the ring and during the intro's indicated he thought he was out for a picnic, and I guess he was, the main course was knuckle sandwhiches from wright.
