Winky Wright vs Oscar De la Hoya?
History is in the making as the boxing scene is buzzing about the recent retirement of Floyd Mayweather and its effect on Oscar De La Hoya. As De La Hoya eagerly searches for a worthy opponent, he will find one in former Middleweight champion, Ronald “Winky” Wright, of whom he’s been avoiding for years. Upon hearing the news, Wright exclaims, “It’s destiny… Floyd retired, nobody cares to fight Oscar, but here I am. He can’t run from me any more.”
While Wright’s comments may raise eyebrows due to his hiatus from the ring due to his recovery period and alleged outstanding financial requests, he assures that this fight can be a reality.. He states, “See, you can’t get caught up in the hype. I can and will do everything in my power to make this fight happen. I’ve been dying to get at Oscar for years, but he’s just been too scared. He, along with the rest of the world, may think the fight won’t happen because I’ve been out of the ring or want too much money, but that’s not true.”
Wright continues to clear up the confusion and speculation, adding why Oscar needs to step up to the plate. “What the media won’t tell you is that I’ve always had to get the short end of the stick in order to make fights happen.” He says. “I took a pay cut, so these fights could happen. So now that I’m asking for what I’m worth I supposedly want ‘too much money’? Everyone knows a Wright – De La Hoya fight is a big ticket, so give me my justice. I’ve worked for it and I deserve it. He knows what this fight can do for him too. He knows he can really get paid, so why keep running? It’s about time that the best get back to fighting the best in boxing. No more warm up fights. Just get in the ring with me and go for twelve rounds. Just do it.”
No official discussions have been made, but Wright’s camp is ready, willing and able. Damian Ramirez, Wright’s advisor agrees with Wright. He says, “It’s about time. This needs to happen. Not just for Winky, but for boxing. Everyone’s hungry for a fight like this.”

Oscar wants no part of Winky ya’ll… NO PART! Not now, not then, not ever. Stop talkin’ about people in their primes.. with an over-the-hill B-Hop lurking around out there I don’t wanna hear any 35, 36 excuses. Winky wants it… De La Hoya don’t, it’ll never happen and Winky needs to get passed it. How ’bout… er.. beatin’ up on Sugar Shane one more time? Or Forrest? Or Cotto? Or Margarito? Yah.. I said it.. Winky is one of the few who’s big enough to take on the Tijuana Tornado.
Oscar fans read what Winky said about dela hoya and give me the real deal on Oscar vs. Winky no the bullshit I’ve been hereing.Oscar was my boy until he start ducking the fighters his size. Another thing if Mora gets that fight with Oscar I hope he punish him. Oscar is a Pussycat in my book. No a Warrior.
Granted Oscar is 35 and still fighting but Winky is 36 and still fight so whats the diference, two best lightmiddle weight go toe to toe at 154. So Whats the big deal dude.Your boy Oscar is a Chicken at 35 because all the people he wants to fight is much smaller than him like Manny Pacman he’s the best in has weight class. So Oscar what weight class your fighting in. If it’s Welterweight than fight Margarito but if it’s {LMW}than fight Winky at 154. To all Oscar fans how and the hell he can call has self a Champ and go out like a Sucker.
My
Winky may be able to beat de la hoya ill admit im not an idiot to see it but what im saying is Oscar in my heart is the champ of champs and always will be.If Winky is such a great fighter were are all his fans. He can be better than de la hoya but he will always live in his shadow the Golden Boy even thow he is retiring he will be known as the best champion in the chicano community. He’s 35 and still fighting that to me is far from a chicken.
