    I'm gonna say it again...people who come on here and refer to fighters as bums are out of order.
    They lose all respect for themselves as posters also...IMO.

    Foreman Jab...You let yourself down there mate.
    All fighters deserve respect and in this case we are talking about guys who fought at the very highest level.

    This would be a very competitive fight, between a poor mans Ali and a poor mans Frazier.

    Only because Spinks is a slightly ugly version of Ali and Marvis was an ugly version of his dad

    I heartily concur with this opinion.:good

    Any man who has the balls to get in a ring and fight deserves respect ,regardless of his ability.
    Call them journeymen, but never bums, it ill becomes those who would never have the courage to hold their hands up to use that term about a boxer.

    I agree with both scenarios. Both at their best,Spinks is too strong.
