I refuse to buy into the myth that Taylor consistently landed harder shots. If you watch the fight with the sound off and look where those shots were landing without Lampley hyping them up you'll see that most of those hard shots were hitting Winky's guard. We see this over and over again from HBO fighters. Anytime an HBO champion looses a close decision it comes back a draw with one of the judges scoring the final round for the champion when there is no possible reason for it.
I had Winky by 1 round the first time I saw it. With the volume muted and watching punch placement closely, I had Winky by 3.
