I wouldnt say he has no chance, but if he does win it'll be the least enjoyable fight of the year. The may 19 card is great though, I just wish cards like this werent on hbo all the time, as having this card on espn 1 or 2 would help the sport a tremendous amount.
I am working this fight card, along with Buffer of course, and expect a great Undercard, but for the Main Event, I think the intros of the fighters may take longer than the fight itself.
In other words - don't go to the fridge, you may miss the entire fight...
I think Taylor ices Spinks, no doubt about it.
Miranda v. Pavlik is as interesting a fight as we will have all year-the winner of this fight will pose a serious threat to Taylor.
Scream to anyone who will listen that they should sit down on May 19 and watch this one, arguably two of the top five punchers in our sport are colliding.
Yeah IMO the Taylor/Spinks fight won't be too competitive and if Taylor improves from his last couple of fights it should be lights out for Spinks. The Miranda/Pavlik fight is the one Im looking forward too. Two fighters with a lack of defense and power punchers should be a good fight. Plus I saw Andre Berto was fighting on the card. Im hoping that HBO shows that fight, but I doubt it. They will probably show highlights though.
We know Taylor has more power than Zab and that if Taylor catches him with his best shot it's goodnight. But Taylor doesn't have half the speed of Spinks or Judah for that matter.
More than likely he'll be able to see what's coming when Taylor throws.
He just has fast hands and he good power as well. I wouldnt say hes one of the most talented in the game now, let alone this era
And Taylor is MUCH bigger then Judah and punches harder. SPINKS isnt making it the distance
if you based zab judahs whole career on talent alone and completely forget that hes a mouthy prick and loses focus alot,then he would be #1 p4p right now
to be fair,zab judah is 1 of the most talented boxers of this era
My point is that Corey is not nearly as slick as he gets credit for...he gets tagged a bit in every fight he is in yet he gets alot of credit for being Mr. Slick.
I liken his reputation to that of Paul Spadafora who was also given far too much credit for being "slick"
there is no way Corey stays away from Jermains jab and he will ultimately taste the right hand and then it will be goodnight.
The size difference between these two is enormous.

TAYLOR by KO7
The only reason Ouma stood up for 12 rounds is because hes tough and has an awsome chin.
If JUDAH knocked Spinks out, TAYLOR could demolish him
The same Corey Spinks that was iced by Zab Judah and put out on his feet in the first fight before being SAVED by the bell.
The same Corey Spinks that was hit repeatedly by a faded Miguel Angel Gonzalez?
Better then Hopkins, no.

i disagree, i think spinks is a better boxer then bernard hopkins

come on dino you know thats not true,you've been improving lately but thats aload of shite
If Hopkins and Winky couldnt get the "W" against Taylor by outboxng him then their is no way in hell Spinks can do it, both Hopkins and the Winkster are way better boxers then Spinks.

I give him little chance...Like I said though if he is well conditioned light on his feet and the ring is anything above 22 feet I give him a chance...But then again I think of him getting knocked out by Zab Judah and see no chance in hell of him lasting in their with a rough guy like Taylor.
