WINKY WRIGHT: “THE FIGHTS I WANT, GOLDEN BOY CAN’T GET…TOP RANK MIGHT”

“I need to do what’s good for Winky Wright and right now, the fights I want, Golden Boy can’t get me, so I need to see what’s out there and Top Rank might do that. If they can make a deal, then we gonna do something…I’m saying if we can make a deal, then that’s something I would do. I’m gonna probably fight some time in April and get some rust off and then, if I do something with Top Rank, I might fight on the card with Cotto in New York. I’m ready to fight Pavlik or Cotto or whoever,” stated former jr. middleweight champion Winky Wright as he talked about a possible move to Top Rank Promotions. Check it out!

JRAM: Tell me what’s good Wink.

WW: Hangin’ in!

JRAM: That’s it?

WW: That’s it man, just livin’.

JRAM: So what’s the hold up Wink? When can we actually see you get in the ring again?

WW: Seems like every time I get something going, something always happens. I was so upset about the Brewer fight. I was so ready to get in the ring. I trained hard. I was ready to get in the ring and then it got called off a week before and the fight fell off.

JRAM: Im hearing some rumblings that you’re making a move to Top Rank. Talk to me. Any truth to that?

WW: There’s some truth to it. I need to do what’s good for Winky Wright and right now, the fights I want, Golden Boy can’t get me, so I need to see what’s out there and Top Rank might do that. If they can make a deal, then we gonna do something.

JRAM: So you’re saying your moving to Top Rank?

WW: I’m saying if we can make a deal, then that’s something I would do. I’m gonna probably fight some time in April and get some rust off and then, if I do something with Top Rank, I might fight on the card with Cotto in New York. I’m ready to fight Pavlik or Cotto or whoever.
