Winky Wright keeps his #8 spot in my top 10 (i'm sure he was worried) after a pretty mediocre majority decision vs. Shane Mosley. Scores were 114-114, 115-113, 115-113. However, I don't believe Shane was that close... I scored the fight 117-111. Wright out landed Mosley 273 (41%) to 154 (24%).
Shane just does not have the power at 154 to do much damage to Winky... so during the fifth round Winky put his arms to his side and LET Shane punch him 3 or 4 times to the body, then Shane unloaded a huge right to Winky head. Winky looked a bit shaken, but showed no effect from the punch. I think that pretty much proved to Winky that Shane was not going to hurt him. Winky's corner did however, proceed to rip him a new one for the full minute before the 6th round.
Overall, pretty good fight, but Winky needs to step up and look better in his next fight if he wants to become an elite fighter.
