A fighter nobody wants to fight
- Winky Wright has gained a reputation for being avoided and feared by the big money fighters. He has built his career as a tremendous defensive boxer with an excellent jab. He is also a technically sound south paw (left handed) boxer. Critics of Wright are quick to point out that his fighting style and technique does not inspire pay-per-view type money. Although he has 25 knockouts in his career, he is not known for his punching power. In his big money fights against top notch fighters such as Shane Mosley, Jermain Taylor and Bernard Hopkins, the fights have all gone to the scorecards.Las Vegas Sun: Feared, respected and often avoided (March 26, 2009)
