    Way to romanticize the past. Spinks was a good fighter, he wasn't that ****ing good.

    Yes, Roy at 88 feels absurd. Arguably the greatest fighter in a head to head sense, pound for pound, in history.

    What fights of Michael Spinks have you seen, and who in the hell at 175lbs today could go the distance let alone beat Spinks? No, I wouldn't even favor this version of Hopkins to see out 12.
