Why was Spinks running away when he fought Karmazan??

[The Scientist]

Dude, Spinks ran during the 12th round and you act like he's been running the his whole life. He only did that because he hadnt fought in a year and a half which made him extremley tired when you add on he was fighting at a higher weight, and he was in with a super strong dangerous guy and he knew he was leading on the cards.
Stop acting like Spinks is a ***** who ran for 12 rounds. People hate on Spinks so much because he isnt Margarito and doesnt just come in throw bombs and try to knock guys out. So what. That doesnt mean you suck and for you guys to keep dissing him is a joke. You dont have to KO guys to be a good fighter. He is elite wether you like it or not.

That **** was no different then what Winky did in the 12th against Taylor and a million fighters do all the time. He didnt get the win because he ran all fight. Believe that

Well said...

oh i just wanted to know if he was running during his "championship" fight ...during the "championship" rounds...thats all..thanks!

spinks was running for pretty much the last 3 rounds. if you dont think so just listen to the commentary from cunningham. he chews corey a new one every round from 9 on..

cunningham: "you alright in there?"
spinks: "yeah"
cunningham: (screaming) "Well you dont look ****in all right in there!!!"

spinks won 7-5 on my card but youd have to be a biased spinks fan to not agree that karmazin knocks him out if it goes one or two more rounds.

WTF kind of point is that?

Fights are 12 rounds, and have been for two decades.

Spinks hadn't fought in a year, and was tired in the end, but did enough to win the fight by winning more rounds.

Who cares if he wasn't ready to go more than 12. There's only 12 rounds.

its more of an observation, a guy who can only fight 8 good rounds is going to get his ass kicked sooner or later. yeah he won a fight, won his 7 rounds and then ran for the hills. looked like **** doing it, dances like a ****** for 6 minutes and then gets tired, maybe he should conserve his energy next time?

Did you miss the point where it was his 1st fight in a year?

The guy moved up in weight and took on who many considered the division's top fighter after a year's inactivity.

How that inferrs he's never coming in shape again, I'm not getting.

He had been inactive, was rusty, and won the fight.

was it just me? or did you guys see it too? was he running during the "championship" rounds??

Championship rounds are a myth. They're worth no more than any other round. Spinks knew all he had to do was finish on his feet.
