Michael Spinks was great at light heavy, but I believe Roy Jones jr would outrun him to get the nod on the scorecards. Too much speed, even for the great Spinks.

Roy Jones Jr by UD.

Spinks jab, technique, ability to adjust and his composure under duress would serve him well against Jones. His height and reach, combined with his herky/jerky rythym - AND Eddie Futch - are certain to pose Jones more problems than he had EVER faced at 175.

Put Spinks behind the wheel again each of Roy's opponents at 175 from '97 through '03 and Michael cleans house as impressively at the very least - but - likely more impressively, if not emphatically in most all of the cases.

Being that fundamentals are comparable (not similar, comparable) to me it boils down to relative size and spinks was bigger, so I would pick spinks. Although I would not discard Jones against anyone in the 160-175
