    Timestamp where in the fight his eyes are seen rolling back into his head. I will point to 1:11-1:15 of the first video that comes up on searching ‘Tyson-Spinks KO’ to indicate a lucid, wide-eyed Spinks watching the ref’s count.

    But following you through this thread you seem more willing to swim through a Croc-infested sewer than let anything posted by someone else take away from Tyson’s career.

    It’s 1:11-1:14 of the very first video to come up when searching Tyson-Spinks. “No one but me saw it” sure, pal.

    I still have no idea what injury you mean? Did he pretend he broke a leg or sprained an ankle or something?

    You obviously don't know what an injury is.

    Thanks for the infantile PM. I’ll do my discussions with adults moving forward.

    He gets drilled and the back of his head hits the canvas so hard that it hurts to watch. He then moves around on the floor like a guy who just woke up from a coma.

    Records alone don't mean anything.

    That’s why Tyson ranks above Holmes.

    Nope. But you're entitled to believing anything you want.

    Sweet! Block me. I don't need your delusional replies to an obvious KO that everyone but you seem to realize...WAS A KO.

    Trying to figure out what that psychopath means but here goes: I'm guessing he thinks Spinks was coherent after getting decked and was even aware of Frank Cappuccino's count because replays show Spinks was looking in his direction from the floor.

    In reality Spinks clearly checked out to parts unknown. Replays show he came back when blinking his eyes and shaking his head to clear the cobwebs. He then tries to get up but can't find coordination. Ney seems to think Spinks purposely fell into the ropes as a way to fake his being hurt.

    I'm trying to give him an olive branch but he likes to hang on branches all by himself.
