I think everyone is scared of Winky cause the man has true talent he is the dream breaker he destroyed Mosley ( a good fighter) Trinidad (a ok fighter) .He was robbed when he beat Vargas and now Taylor I think he should move up and fight Joe Calzaghe cause its more money and I know he wont look like Lacy did after his fight with him. Oh to answer your ? Winky won and hell no it was not a fair call ,Rematch maybe be if he does fight him again I hope he knocks him the hell out so the judges cant get a draw from that

No, the draw was not fair. Winky landed more punches, a higher percentage of punches, controlled the pulse of the fight, parried most of Taylor's power punches, closed Taylor's left eye...in essence, he completely outclassed Taylor. No, I don't think an immediate rematch is in order. I think the judge who called the fight a draw should be challenged to pick a winner. I think the fight needs to be reviewed by a boxing commission. Taylor didn't beat Hopkins or Wright. He is still an amateur, skill wise.

Winky won by far! yes taylor hit him a few times hard, but in all Winky won in every stat count. because boxing is so lame and searching for good fights calling it a draw was smart to set up a rematch

winky wright was robbed!! for several reasons winky did not get his proper victory- the first is jermain taylor is a younger and up and coming superstar that boxing needs, second the fight was close to his hometown, and third the judge that went for taylor also went for taylor in the hoipkins fight. also winky fights a more technical defensive fight then taylor. many of taylors punches were blocked, winky had a higher percantage, landed more punches, taylor threw more punches but many did not land. you can tell who won a draw by fighters reactions-winky walked off the ring mad and disgusted-he said no rematch. taylor was happy and delughted to be able to keep his belts, it was a robbery.

Personally I think Winky won by two rouds but it was a good fight for both men. I can see where a draw was a fair decision. Winky Landed the cleaner punches and with higher connect percentage but certain judges favor aggression and who landed the harder punches. Winky did an excellent job of blocking most of Taylor's power punches and I felt he did enough to win despite his antics in the 12th round.
