      no doubt spinks is more skilled than baldy and probably a better fighter... but styles makes fights, i can see baldy giving PBF a tougher time.. there is no scenario where spinks can win, he cant outbox floyd, he cant KO him...

            yeah i was joking, it's more like, this is gonna be a track meet!!!!

            and you nailed it dead on, styles make fights and spinks jus doesnt have the style or the size to trouble the best boxer in the world, he's gonna rely on his foot speed and hope mayweather falls asleep from the boredome, maybe then letting him use his fists as pllows.

              U mean Gatti,Corrales and Chavez right? Dey wa all walkin in 2 punches,Floyd taped dem up all night,His 1st fight wid Castillo was controversial but the 2nd was easy 4 him,so he dont need 2 prove himself against agressive fighters,i wana see him in der with a slick southpaw like Spinks

                  Does anybody know how much Floyd is getting paid to fight Spinks? It cant be more than 8 million but I imagine that he'll find a excuse to try to sell this fight. He did it with the fight with Judah.

                    Who ever said Arum would actually pay 8 million other than Arum?

                    Arum is the same guy with the most famous line ever spoken to a reporter.

                    "Yesterday I was lying, today I'm telling the truth."

                      Stop trying to convince these guys. They dont know anything. I keep trying to tell them that Spinks has a shot at winning and Floyd wouldve easily killed Baldy.

                      Spinks is the most underrated fighter in the world but no one likes him or thinks he's any good just because of his style & KO's.

                      It seems like for every big win he gets, the less credit he gets and the more people think he sucks. People dont give him any credit for the win over a super tough Karmazin. Its almost like Spinks lost that fight.

                      I still cant believe that everyone thinks that Floyd is choosing a soft/easy opponent in Spinks, like he hasnt done anything
