      Corey fights like a man who is scared of being hit.

      Floyd fights like a guy that is too cautious to avoid taking many risks.

      Corey is a punk.

      Floyd Mayweather any day of the week.

        Okay... the reason I made this thread is because a lot of people picked Spinks to beat Cotto at 147...

        Yet by shutout right now, everyone agrees that Mayweather is better at Spink's game.

        Anyone care to explain?

          It's a styles matchup DWeins.

          ANd I dont necessarily agree with that either. I would take Cotto over Spinks any day. Not at 154.

          Spinks cant make 147 anyway though, so the point is moot.

            Well, call me crazy, but I think Spinks is pretty one-dimensional. Box and move. Box and move. Box and move, or hit and not get hit.

            Yet, Mayweather is better than Spinks at Spinks's bread and butter game, at least according to the poll.

            It was supposed to be a fantasy matchup by the way.

            I just thought it was strange. Can anyone educate me on how Cory fights if it is not just boxing and moving?

              He is one dimensional you are right. No inside skills and not a very good combination puncher.

              I guess people think he could cause problems to Cotto because of his incredibly awkward and negative style. And the fact that he is a southpaw.

              It's alot different fighting Spinks than fighting Judah. Judah will stand there and explode on their. He tries to hurt you.

              Spinks wants no part with that. He is always on his toes and on the backfoot.

                I don't think Floyd would've handled Jermain Taylor like Spinks did. Spinks-Judah I&II were more entertaining than Mayweather-Judah(Excluding the brawl).

                  That's because Judah could push the fight against no power Cory Spinks.

                  Judah was actually doing a lot of running after the 6th round or so against Mayweather. Mayweather was the one coming forward.

                  If Taylor fought Mayweather like he fought Spinks, he would have lost. God he fought a ****** fight against him.

                    Floyd has never been KOd like Spinks. So I would have to go with Floyd. I hate watching Spinks but he does posses excellent boxing skills.
