Spinks , Holmes and Cooney fought like shit. Lewis was always suspect to get hurt , but nothing unusual about it , just not one of the best chins.
Larry Holmes was vulnerable too , and he knew it , which is why he fought as bad as he did , and this is after watching all of their fights against another , and then a little more from each one of them , I was never impressed by neither one of them.
And back to Cooney , he was stopped in his biggest 3 fights , won because of cuts against Jimmy Young , and hit Norton while he was down , which even takes from his biggest wins.
