Stop blaming the promoters for everything. Blame Spinks for not having the work ethic, dedication, and heart for boxing anymore. Spinks came in over 200 lbs for his training camp for the fight with K-9. When your own trainer refuses to train you because you're that out of shape and you don't have the work ethic... that should tell you something.

****, I just looked it up!

Crazy how K9 has a belt at 154, easy work if Cotto or someone who wants to unify.

He kept the guy out of the ring for so long it was ridiculous. He had him fighting like once every 1 1/2 years. The Bundrage fight should have been in the books ages ago. King should be ashamed of himself for ruining a talented boxer.

Yes. Don King has kept a lot of his fighters inactive, and in doing so caused them to lose their sharpness in the ring.

I dont think so

CORY SPINKS worse enemy is Cory Spinks.

I heard he comes in camp 200+ pounds every time and that Kevin doesnt want him to train again.

I also heard that he smoke cigaretes and drink!

And fighting once every 1 1/2 years didn't play a part in that? Not everyone is as big of a gym rat as B-Hop and Floyd. I think he just lost the motivation after a while.

But don't you understand being kept inactive for a year and a half CAUSED him to get badly out of shape?

Don King has ruined many boxers by keeping them inactive.

He should still be in decent shape and continue to work when he's not active. You don't see guys like Floyd walking around at 180 when they're inactive and not fighting. Too many people here are always blaming the promoters for everything when most of the blame goes on the boxers.

I agree with you about being inactive would cause him to be rusty and out of shape, but you should never be that out of shape in between fights.

Don King RUINED Cory Spinks!!
