    Comments Thread For: The complex humility of Michael Spinks, a man destined to always be underrated

    If Michael Spinks would not shout about his own achievements, someone else needed to. Jack Hirsch has done that in his new book, an authorized biography titled ?Michael ?Jinx? Spinks.??

          Stopped reading,
          I'm here to read an article, not half a book.

          I like Michael, especially how he's thankful & grateful to Mike for setting him up for life in those 91 seconds.

          He knew when to get out of the fire, huge success story.

            Great article.

            Spinks always gets devalued by Tyson haters, who call him a "blown up cruiser".

            Guy beat Holmes 2x & ended his reign & Cooney, but apparently wasn't a "real" heavyweight.

            On top of being a top 5 fighter of the '80s.

              deadly don king drained iron mike of funds as well as many others

              luckily iron mike got the courts to make him give some back

              u go to court make your case and the court forces people to do things they dont want to do

              great inventions really

              michael doesnt sound as lucky in that way as his drainer had spent the loot it seems? at least he got something though and has a nice house paid off of course
