    clear win for Floyd, who tends to fight more aggressive against southpaws anyways and with little power from Spinks, Floyd will walk him down.

    The fans lose. This fight would be an incredibly boring fight. Two natural counter punchers and Floyd didn't walk people down until he was 34. If we are talking prime Floyd, he doesn't do that.

    I give it to Corey in a SD. It goes the full 12, and both men would have their spurts, but I don't see Mayweather at 147 going on the offensive in a successful manner against Cory.

    147 Floyd seldom did outside of Judah 2nd half and obviously against Shitty Shane and Tree.

    WTF? Corrales didn't get walked down.

    Mayweather was largely on the backfoot and using lateral movement in that fight. He was aggressive in spots, for instance after he dropped Corrales in the 7th and then pounced on him again, but Floyd mostly was on the backfoot and moving laterally. Corrales wasn't the best at cutting off the ring and Floyd completely exploited that weakness.

    There was little reason for Floyd to walk Corrales down as what he was doing was working perfectly.

    Are we talking about uncles Jeff, Roger, or Floyd Sr Mayweather beating Corey Spinks? You can't be talking about Floyd with the answers given in this thread. Someone even said SD?!? You ought to shoot your mother****ing selves.

    Going against the grain and saying that on a given night, Spinks MD is a distinct possibility.

    If they had 5 matches, maybe 3 to Mayweather and 2 to Spinks.

    All decisions, all razor thin.

    Maybe you're just underrating the boxing skills of a guy whose name you don't even appear to know the proper spelling of. :yep

    Seriously, have you ever even seen Spinks?

    I mean in his prime, not the shot-legged flat-footed version that's been reduced to brawling with Philips, Latimore, and Bundrage these last few years.
