Both of these boxers are superstars. I am probably going to pick Tito by KO because of his power. But Winky has been in there with Fernando Vargas, and Shane Mosley. He definitely can take a punch. I do think Tito might hit a littler harder than these guys, so thats why I can see the KO happening.
But to say this is easy come on..... This fight could go either way.
Winky is quick and in tremendous shape. If he is able to box Tito for 12 rounds, I can see him winning a decision.
Winky is fast, but no faster than Tito. Winky has a weak left jab, that will not affect Tito.
Tito hits a LOT harder than both Vargas and Mosley. Tito nearly took Vargas head off in their fight. Mosley was in his 4th division, Tito would have blown Mosley away as well. Not to mention, we have never seen Winky at Middle yet (although I dont think this will be a factor).
Why do I say it is easy to predict?
Who has beaten Tito? IMHO I think DLH did and we all know BHOP did. What did both these men do, both used lateral movement and superior speed and combination punching. Winky has very very poor lateral movement. He has tired in fights, and we all know Tito is a machine when it comes to fighting hard down the stretch. Winky has a solid and tight defence, but Tito will definately peirce it, especfially considering Winky will be standing right there infront of him all night long (and lets not kid ourselves, that jab is not going to push Tito off like it did Mosley).
Tito has faced several southpaws, so that is not a problem for him. Mosley himself has said he doesnt handle southpaws well. Tito has KOd every single southpaw he has faced.
But basically, styles make fights, and a stationary target is MADE for Tito. And in every single Winky fight, he has never used much lateral movement.
Wait and see, you should have put your money on Tito like I said!
