Spinks Win over Holmes is more impressive than Usyk win over AJ

Holmes should have taken an L from Carl Williams.

 

Nah. Who's Alt is this?
A few points to consider.....Holmes is a better boxer than AJ. I don't think anyone would dispute that however....
Holmes was 35 and had clearly been slipping a little in his fights prior. Also quita a few at the time thought that Larry had won. either way you scored it the fight was very close. Lederman had it 143-142 to Spinks. According to HBO punch stats, Spinks landed 318 of 697 punches (46 percent) and Holmes connected on 248 of 567 (44 percent). Spinks was undisputed at 175ilbs moving to Heavy but Holmes was not undisputed only holding the IBF and Ring titles.
Joshua on the other hand was physical prime but had suffered 1 defeat. Joshua was also a unified champion with WBA (Super) IBF. WBO and IBO titles. Usyk's win was far more decisive in his fight although he was coming up after unifying Cruiser and was the older man by several years.
I think it could be argued either way. Spinks like Usyk fought a tactical fight that played to his strengths and made it difficult for the bigger man to land. Usyk's victory was on foreign soil and far more decisive.
Both are great wins Usyk the clearer win but Spinks was coming up from a lower weight division although he was fighting Holmes who was clearly on the wane at that point.
I personally would go with the Usyk win but only by a whisker and can easily see it the other way.

 

Holmes was also older than Joshua. Anyway, you should post this in Classic.

 

Usyk moved up to heavyweight because he smelled something sweet up there

He knew all along Joshua didn't have the skill or the heart to complete. He knew Joshua wasn't the real champion. Joshua was just keeping Fury's hard earned belts warm but Usyk snatched them before Fury could take them back. Usyk just used Joshua as a practice fight for his future showdown against Tyson Fury

Spinks came from light heavyweight, moved up and dethroned ATG Larry Holmes. Totally picked him apart and took that jab out of the equation. It was an excellent performance. I rewatch it monthly.

Usyk was more dominant definitely, but undefeated old Holmes is better than Joshua. The Holmes that beat Ray Mercer also beats Joshua.

 

AJ has been drilled with more skills than people pretend when you consider he was boxing close rounds with Wlad. He also defeated Povetkin, who despite being old, was still a skilled threat. AJ would land and KO Holmes most probably. Holmes would end up like he did against Tyson. Running around trying to poke his jab and then wham.

Usyk was facing a far more dangerous puncher, and one with the promotion firmly on his side.

Usyk is better than Spinks, Holmes and AJ.

 

An old Holmes or prime Holmes?

 

Holmes was robbed that night.

 

Nah...Spinks beat him close but clear the first time. Rematch was questionable, though.

 

Holmes was injured before going into the Spinks fight. It was thought to be a pinched nerve that was giving him trouble every time he threw a right it turned out to be a slipped disc (5Th vertebrae) So Holmes was compromised. Also Mercer was imconsistent throughout his career.
So which Alt are you?
I've narrowed the selection down due to your phrasing and grammer.
