if there was ever someone who could steal a decision from floyd it would be spinks. The man looked unimpressive, scared, and ran the entire night from Taylor and still nearly stole the decision. He is fast, he is slick, and he doesnt care if its a boring fight. Not a good style matchup for floyd.
Lets just hope the fight doesnt get made because it will be worse then Taylor/Spinks.
Oh please, it's def JMM. I think JMM can even beat Spinks too not that Spinks sucks, just that JMM is better.
What he sucks because he doesn't entertain you?
He's a world-class boxer with an excellent set of skills. No, he's not the most crowd pleasing at times but he's fun to watch when his defensive skills are on full display.
JMM beat Cory Spinks??? Yeahhhhh....okkkkkaaaayyyy
There was a time when I swore that Spinks would beat Mayweather based on styles alone. After today's fight with Lattimore, I have to re-neg on my bold prediction.
Spinks has fought a flatter style of late and it has drew him into more entertaining fights but got away from the reasons I thought he could and would beat Mayweather.
Spinks is still the more competitive fight but not as competitive as the fight would have been 2 years ago.
Although, I'd rather see Mayweather v Marquez for my own personal enjoyment.
Don't get me wrong, Marquez is by far the better fighter, but Marquez is a featherweight fighting as a lightweight. For Mayweather to come back and fight him as a welterweight is bogus. Mayweather retired because he didn't want to face the top welterweights in the first place.
Spinks would not be a Mayweather opponent anyways. He is too big(see previous paragraph) and he is a southpaw, Mayweather made a career avoiding southpaws. He faced 4(In 39 fights-a record for lb4lb fighters alltime). The same people that sell us Mayweather fighting featherweights will also easily sell us on how great a welterweight he is when he retires without fighting a top welterweight!
Neither both are jokes of fights. JMM at even 140 i would give floyd some credit but anything higher its a joke. and spinks?? despite being the bigger man he will probably be the one running all fight haha!
Neither fight is competitive because Floyd destroys both. But Marquez is the fairer fight because he and Floyd are the same size, while Spinks is way bigger than Floyd.
Thats too bad. Judah was able to beat him, but floyd can't? Or does weight really matter to Floyd?
They are kind of close but for different reasons. Interesting question. I would give them both about the same chance at winning (slim), but I would probably be more suprised if Spinks won (although I would be pretty damn shocked if JMM won)
