That's fair enough, I suppose. The thing is, it's not as though Taylor was having any difficulties with his career at the time of the Spinks...
You nut.
People say this sort of thing often, but this is one fight you could not pay me (unless it was a whole lot) to watch.

Sugar Ray Seales and Sugar George Costner deserve a shout.
A lot of fighters prior to the era of substantial footage, primarily the ones around the turn of the century or thereabouts. When it comes to that...
