    Cory Spinks vs. Roman Karmazin: Some time in July?

    courtesy of f i g h t n e w s

    "Apparently former undisputed welterweight champion Cory "The Next Generation" Spinks and Don King have resolved their differences as Spinks is said to be fighting IBF 154lb champion Roman Karmazin (also promoted by Don King) on either July 1st or 8th. Karmazin has a mandatory challenger in Rodney Jones and that fight was scheduled to go to purse bid soon, but apparently that purse bid date has been pushed back. Spinks-Karmazin would indeed be a bigger fight than Karmazan-Jones and add to that fact that the fight seems destined to be held in Spinks' hometown of St. Louis, Missouri, where Spinks is a big draw. By fight time, Karmazin would not have fought in a year since winning the title in a big upset over heavily favored Kassim Ouma back in July of 2005. For Spinks it will be his first fight in a 18 months since being knocked out by Zab Judah and losing his titles in St. Louis back in February 2005."

              I have never seen Karmizan fight but I know that Spinks is a very slick fighter and can cause any fighter a lot of trouble.Since I've never seen either of them fight I won't make a pick but this is a much bigger fight for Karmizan than Rodney Jones especially if it is in St. Louis.

                so cory is staying at 154.this should be a good fight.spinks knows how to handle the dangerous kamazin.but roman could get lucky. he'll need it in st.louis.
