    the cory spinks debate

    who would you rather see cory spinks fight

    floyd mayweather or felix trinidad

    id go for mayweather as i give him alot more chance of stepping up and beating spinks than spinks stepping up and beating trinidad.
    i definately prefer competitive bouts even though spinks getting his head knocked off by tito would be funny

      Spinks-Mayweather is a good competitive fight with MW moving up in weight.I would be concerned with MW at 147 becuase I didn't think he looked as good at 140 as he did at 135. He stood too flatfooted at 140. Probably was just an abberation, I'm sure he'll get back on the bike at 147..which would be a good idea for him. His talent alone probably gives him a decision over Spinks

      I like Spinks Boxing ability, but against the bigger Tito it's not much of a fight. Tito would win by ko

          I would rather see him fight Tito. I think if he fought the right fight he could hang with Tito, but Floyd would outbox him.

            I respect your opinion as much as anyone on this site, but I disagree. I think Spinks would get nailed by Tito's power. All I keep seeing is Camacho and Whitiker against Tito.

              Man Whitiker and Camacho were SHOT when they fought Tito. Tito never lays a glove on Prime Whitiker and King knew it too thats why he kept Tito from Whitker for years

                your right, they were past their prime. I still think Tito would hurt spinks. He has no power to keep Tito from coming forward. Don't think Spinks can hold him off for 12 rounds.

                  spinks - trinidad seems more of a mismatch than b-hop-dlh or trinidad-mayorga

                  i cant see spinks surviving especially after seeing his eyes when jab judah knocked him down

                    your probably right.

                    eventually Tito would catch up to him, but its a good style match up for Spinks
