I might be the only one but I had Judah winning that fight and I thought most of the rounds were easy to call. I had it scored like this and none of these rounds are debatable if you ask me:First 4 rounds go to Spinks and the next 4 rounds go to Judah. Lets skip 9 and 10 for a second. Spinks dropped Judah in the 11th and got a 2 point round but then Judah dropped Spinks in the 12th and got a 2 point round which means the fight comes down to the 9th and 10th. The 9th is the tricky round. Me, Lederman, and Merchant had it 4-4 after 8. Judah was in control in the 9th until he showed off and turned his head and Spinks hit him a couple of times but Judah had won the round until then and after those couple of hits by Spinks, Judah landed some big punches at the end so I thought he clearly won it. The 10th round was close and I thought that Judah won but it couldve gone either way and I wouldnt mind if you gave it to Spinks. So I had it like this, Spinks won 1234 and 11. And Judah won 5678910 and 12. Which means I had a Judah win 7-5 or no less then a 6-6 draw
If you have the fight on tape I want you to go back and look at it and go round by round how I scored it. I dont want you to just look at it and score it. I want you to go like this for example, DLT said Spinks won round 1 and then watch it and say if I was right and so on and so on. Please only respond if you have it on tape and will watch it again because I already know how you feel. I like both guys so I am not biased in any way.
Umm you can't score it 114-114 when both guys got knocked down
114-114 means 6 rounds a piece, fool. if you scored that fight 6 rounds a piece, you would have 113-113
you are right i checked by score it was 113-113. my misteak

ya this was a very good fight
i was goin for judah and will in the rematch too
but i think he lost the 1st one
just becuase he let spinks get such an early lead
hope next time
hes all business
I agree...on Spinks winning the first one. I've got it taped, and have watched it more than once, and each time saw Spinks boxing smartly and professionally, while Judah ONCE AGAIN acted like an ass. Same story each time he fights it seems. I hope he acts stupid in the rematch too, and gets outboxed again. I love that look on his face when he just CANT believe that the judges wouldnt give him the nod for acting a fool. It's priceless!!
i had the fight a draw. 114-114.

I thought Zab won the fight ,but I didn't have a problem with Spinks winning.This fight was actually my favorite fight last year and I can't wait till Saturday.
Same here. I think it could be viewed as a fight too close to call but I had Zab as well. Both fighters should bring it on Saturday as they are fighting for hopefully huge future paydays.

I agree. Who did you have winning when it happened? Was it the same results?
I thought Zab won the fight by 2 rounds. One judge had it 116-112 for Spinks or something clse to that. What fight were they watching? I think the pressure will be on Spinks this time around for a couple reasons. The 1st is that he's in his home town & wants to put on a good show. The 2nd is that he knows if more time were left in the round in the 1st fight, he would've been stopped. Once Zab was serious he dominated the fight. I think Zab knows this is do or die for him & I hope he'll deliver. I think Spinks is way overrated.
I had Judah winning like 114-112 or 7 to 5 with the two knockdowns. It was a great fight in my opinion. After 4 rounds Judah got going and was frustrating Spinks quite a few times during the fight or it at least appeared that way by Spinks reaction to some of the punches Judah was able to land on him. I think Zab will win the rematch as well.
I agree with everything but except maybe the last part. I love Zab but I dont trust him. He can never focus for a whole fight. I dont get that shit. I remember Floyd talking about him one time and he said "how can you not focus for 12 rounds? How hard is it to focus for 36 minutes after you have been in camp for 3 months"? I think Zab can win but it will be very hard in St.Louis I think that will be a huge factor but I also think that it will make the fight much more exciting and the crowd being so hyped up might fool Spinks into trading with Zab

I guess because I don't like two southpaws fighting.
Everyone agrees with that 99% of the time but this fight was that 1%. It was a very good strategic match that had some good action also from the 4th round on

I just watched that fight again & I thought Zab won by a slim margin. I think I had him win by like 2 rounds. He swept from the 5th round on from Spinks, except the 11th.
I agree. Who did you have winning when it happened? Was it the same results?
I taped it and I forgot how the fight went. I remember a boring fight followed by Wlad and Brewster.
I thought you were sweetscience so how could you call this a boring fight. Pretty much everyone liked it. It was a great BOXING match
