    It's a strange question to begin with. Prime Spinks was at 175.

    Your opinion is total bull****.Spinks could beat strong heavyweight (Cooney)
    Tyson could beat strong fighters maybe some of them (Ruddock,Smith,Bruno) were stronger and harder puncher than
    Douglas and Holy. Moreover Douglas never was a big puncher his only remarkable ko win was Tyson.
    I think Spinks was harder puncher than Douglas considering Spinks could destroy Tangstadt but douglas couldn't beat this
    fighter. Otherwise i think the 247 pounds ripped Bruno (easy Tyson victim) was much more stronger than a 215 lbs Holy.
    Just the Tyson hater's mania this "Tyson couldn't beat Strong fighters" bull****.

    I didn't say Tyson couldn't beat a stronger fighter than him, I said that the times he lost it was because he was getting pushed back by a stronger fighter. Of course there were other factors. Spinks knees were shot, this has been well documented and Cooney was strong but did not have the combination of speed and power that Tyson did. Learn how to read dick.
