I think Winky is durable, and consistent enough that he'd eke out a decision over Martinez. Martinez would make it fun, and may win some rounds in spectacular fashion with quick bursts of attack, but Winky's defense was tight, and his chin was solid as well.

I like Winky on points.

Wright would outbox and outcounter his fellow southpaw Martinez behind his right jabs and combinations to take a decision.

I think, both possess something that can negate his opponent's game here.

Martinez is likely to have issues against the boxer with a good jab and tight defense. For a while, he won't be able to land cleanly and will be taking shots in return.

At the same time, a fighter with good movement and volume punching like Martinez is the type of fighter Winky might not like. On top of that, Martinez is fast.

I envision a nip-and-tuck fight with Martinez being an overall busier fighter, while Wright would be more effective.

Martinez SD 12.
