    Yet by shutout right now, everyone agrees that Mayweather is better at Spink's game.
    Anyone care to explain?
    Hes not, Spinks is the better pure boxer and only gets hit when he fades late in fights. Spinks at junior welter out boxes Mayweather because he could fight for the full 12 rounds and not get tired.

      I was really close to voting for spinks, but I read it was "HIT" and not be hit so that rules Spinks out.

      And he got pretty easily countered from Taylor too, so he gets hit.

        Mayweather is better at hitting (25 KO's compared to 11, roughly the same amount of fights) but Spinks does know how to not get hit.

        If Mayweather fought Spinks it would be good to see if he would try to walk Spinks down like Judah did in the second fight.

            Are you talking about the same guy that quit against Hatton? Whatever running Floyd was doing he managed to KO Hatton unlike Tszyu. Tszyu was a great boxer puncher but he doesnt have the type of upper body speed that Floyd & Corey have.

                Tszyu was also old as hell and has nothing to do with this topic.

                    I thought we were talking about elite boxers like Floyd, Hatton, Spinks & Tszyu. You are now talking about a referee & geography.
