    Still don't see it?
    So Spinks could fight at Heavyweight, right? I mean he's within an inch of Tyson's height after all.

      The sentence to which you applied the word was incoherent.
      No it wasn't but if you want to try and give me English lessons then feel free

      Sky sports? Those British commentators hardly ever know what they're talking about, let alone have any of them asked Steward or Taylor anything. I asked you to quote Taylor, or at least Steward.
      How do you know what information British commentators are privy to?

      I have no interest in providing sources to you, it was an open secret that Taylor's only interest at the time was money. In fact, I think his comments after the Spinks fight made that clear and when a fighter is motivated solely by money then questions have to be asked.

          Now you're just being an idiot. SRR was able to fight at Middleweight for a long time and he started at 135.

              Call me crazy, but he beats Pavlik as long as he dont get hit flush, and with his skills theres a good possibility that him not gettin hit would occur. I mean he spars with much bigger guys so im sure hes felt a punch. Ellerbe just stated that he "could", not that he will or even wants to, so i think its a valid statement, not that any of my money would be betting on it.

                  i've always said this had he fought taylor, instead of spinks i could see him winning,and had he,he would be the greatest ever in my book.

                    Floyd is probably elusive enough to decision Taylor.
                    If Cory Spinks could do it, Floyd could do it better.

                    But this is an unrealistic claim by Ellerbe.
