    Michael Spinks accomplished more in the HW division that Vitali/Wlad put together.

    Where are the marquez brothers? Juan Manuel and Rafael Marquez are two of the best boxer in this generation.

    Yeah right. M. Spinks had total of 5 fights in HW division (4-1 record). He did beat Larry Holmes twice, which is undoubtedly his biggest wins, but really?

    At the heavyweight division?

    Now no doubt, he was one of the greatest light-heavyweights ever, but at heavyweight? He went 1-1 against Larry Holmes in the eyes of most. Holmes was the linear champ, but unquestionably was better in the early 80s. Beat Gerry Cooney, good win considering the size & power disadvantage, but Cooney wasn't an active fighter. Steffen Tangstad?

    We all saw what happened when he faced Mike Tyson.

    As it turns out, a lot of great boxers are brothers.
