Spinks Vs. Tszyu In Discussion

November 12, 2004 - Although junior welterweight king Kostya Tszyu didn't talk much about his future plans after dominating Sharmba Mitchell last Saturday night, Boxingtalk.com can be the first to tell you that the one fight that tops Tszyuperman's wishlist is a showdown with undisputed welterweight king Cory Spinks. Yesterday afternoon Team Tszyu made a few phone calls to Team Spinks to see if there was any interest in matching the two undisputed champions. Needless to say, Kevin Cunningham, Spinks manager and trainer, who for months has said Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Kostya Tszyu were the two bouts that Team Spinks is most interested in making, informed the Tszyu management just how much he and Cory love the fight. Boxingtalk.com can also be the first to inform you that Tszyu has two more fights left with Showtime, which makes bouts with Arturo Gatti and Floyd Mayweather Jr. virtually impossible to make.

I hope this fight happens, Spinks needs to have his 'World Champ' status removed.

Spinks did nothing but run against mayorga. He was given a gift win. I was laughing at the decision. What a joke it was.

Spinks can be touched especially against a very accurate puncher like Tszyu. He doesn't seem that slick to me especially when Mayorga was able to land on him plenty of times of course Chris Byrd would try to tell you otherwise. They always say the best punch to use against a southpaw is the straight right and that just so happens to be Kostya's best punch.

Tszyu-Spinks Kostya handles slick boxing southpaws well, and he's got the equalizer. His powerpunches are devastatingly accurate, he'll eventually nail Cory with one of those precision punches. Zooo TKO's the SpinksJinx

Wouldn't him have two bouts left with showtime open possible deals with Hbo and make a fight with Mayweather or Gatti even more possible..
