              Spinks fought like a pure bich in that fight. Everytime Mayorga was coming on and hurting him, Spinks would fake a slip and throw himself to the floor.

                I thought it was. A slugfest between 2 champs not many have seen

                  that is why i think duran thinking floyd jr is average is normal and i think even chavez sr would've made floyd that way ....
                  Jesus man how in the hell do you turn everything about Floyd?

                    This fight was one of those rare situations where the better fighter ends up losing. Forrest was a great boxer, but he had his mental lapses. When he was on though he was very difficult to beat.
