Go Latimore, I'm rooting for you. Put it down. I like Spinks too but his time is over. Its time for some new faces. Latimore by close decision.

The new face is Devon Alexander. Spinks will beat Latimore.

Latimore by KO

The new face is Devon Alexander. Spinks will beat Latimore.

Alexander is good and so is Latimore. I don't think Spinks has the legs or strength to keep Latimore off of him for 12 rounds, who is also a quick southpaw with knockout power. I think its his time to shine, and i don't think Spinks is that hungry anymore.

Latimore is over-rated off of one win against Sechew Powell, who is over-rated himself. If Spinks loses it's because he's shot not because Latimore is really that good. Devon Alexander is the truth though.

Someone please do away with Spinks already please.

It doesn't mean Spinks is shot if he losses to Latimore, it could just mean Latimore is a good fighter and top level. Spinks has been on the slide for a while now, and we could have said he was shot after he loss to Phillips in his last fight( that was 12 months ago) who i felt he would out box easily. Only 3 fighters have went the distance with Latimore, hes not only fast but he can pop hard. We can even bet if you want.

I'd have to see the fight, but in my heart of hearts I think if Cory loses this fight it'll be because he's shot. Because the truth is that Cory has beaten better fighters than Latimore. So, I mean maybe Latimore really might be good, but my guess is that Cory wins unless he's shot.

Yeah name a price and I'll either accept or give you a counter.

I see what you mean though, its hard to judge a fighter until he consistently beats top fighters and Latimore is still new, but IMO i think he has a bad style for Spinks at this stage. A naturally bigger fighter, good puncher with some hand speed of his own. Also, its not like Powell was getting the better of Latimore at the time of the stoppage, the fight was dead even and Deandre was coming on.

How about 10k?
