I see all you guys talking about Pac, May, Cotto, Mosley, etc. But truth is that if Cory Spinks was still around in the WW division he would be mopping the floor with all these guys.

Spinks was a pretty good fighter, although I'm far from a fan of his style.
He and Mayweather were negotiating for a fight in the fall of 2006, at 154. Some felt that it would help Mayweather get some leverage in negotiations for a De La Hoya bout as Floyd would also have a belt at 154. Talks of their negotiations was mostly met with fans angry. Mayweather ending up fighting Baldomir for the WW title.
In retrospect, despite Mayweather-Spinks being unpleasing to the eye, it would've been a much more compelling and competitive bout than the Baldomir one.Comment
