Highlights


Full Fight
 
I scored it for Wright. As far as I remember he had clearly outlanded Taylor, neither guy doing much damage.
 
It was close but I had Winky winning, was it a headbutt that shut Taylor’s eye?? Cant seem to remember, Winky has always been that step child nobody liked (promoters and networks)
 
Been a long time but I seem to recall thinking a draw was about right.
 
Was a decent fight. Taylor was Landing the harder shots... but started to fade mid to later.
I thought it should’ve went to Winky as he finished stronger than Taylor.
 
Considering both guys have been considered boring before, I actually highly enjoyed this fight. Thought it was really good. Very close but I thought they could’ve maybe given it to Winky
 
I wouldn't surprised if there is, or will be, conversation about this regarding Badou Jack. Lots of close fights. Guy gives up rounds early but comes on strong late.
 
Spinks beat Taylor too.

I used to think this but after rewatching it several weeks ago I think Taylor won. The 117-111 Spinks card is one of the most horrid cards I can remember. I also didn’t remember Taylor outlanding him by the margin that he did.

As for Taylor - Wright a Draw felt about right.
