Remember when they said they brought in the scales a couple hours before the fight,and Spinks was 163.Thats 15 or so pounds put on between the weigh in and the fight.Spinks seemed slower tonight then the previous encounter.I dont like Spinks,but he just did not seem to be as active as he was in the first fight.No jabs hardly,and movement seemed a bit slower.What do you guys think?
Spinks would be destroyed if he moves up in wieght. He has lightweight power as it is. He should just focus more and stay at Welterweight. I'm sure he can still make some money at 147.
the only thing that effected Spinks last night was the punches of Judah and his own lack of pop.
yep he was countering okay but zab was just walking through them.
I've always thought by weighing in at like 140 and coming in at 160 (Gatti is notorious for this) it would make you slow and sluggish, I mean one day you are walking around at 140 and then the next you added 20 pounds. Thats A LOT of extra weight. But they do it all of the time so I guess not, but I think I would feel an extra load on me.
Don King should try to get Spinks a fight with Margerito on the Espn PPV.I heard Cintron's hand might not be healed by then.I think Spinks would make the much slower Margerito look foolish and outbox him.
Not a bad idea at all, we need Cintron out of the picture.

spinks is dumb, he said he felt he cud've continued. he din't thro a punch for like 30 sec straight
Every fighter says they could continue once a fights been stopped, when you get hit in the head for a living you must question everyones ones intelligence level.
i agree with u..to knock ppl out spinks should fight 130 pounders..ha ha....wright would beat spinks more easily then he beat mosley
You CRAZY! Winky hits just as light as Spinks and Mosley resembled a paraplegic in their fights. He didnt move, Spinks would move a lot more than Mosley did.

spinks was just drawn into a brawny testosterone battle when he should have been smarter.

No way. Alot of fighters put on alot of weight like Zoo, Cotto, Gatti, Castillio and many more. I dont think he was slower, I think it just seemed that way because Judah picked up his pace alot and started from round 1. Spinks is fast but not Judah fast
Another thing I question and he is notorious for this is. How long will Zab stay focused? I say not long.
Good point now that Zab is champion he has to try to stay focused to keep the title and Zab has trouble with that.
Thats good because he didn't have any to make, he just accepted that Judah got the better of him.
That is why I respect fighters like Spinks. Unfortunately you could tell in his eyes when Judah/Spinks/King was all standing around Don was talking about exploring other options for Zab and Cory knew he wouldnt get another chance....He was in tears, but totally understandable. Don King is a prick if he doesnt give Spinks another shot at Zab or another top 147 pounder at least.

I think with all do respect to Spinks, Zab kind of owns Cory now because he knows with one good shot he can mess Cory up. Zab beat Cory fair and square, in my opinion Cory doesn't have any excuses to make.
Cory didnt make none. :D
