Guys, here’s my take on it: Larry Holmes v Michael Spinks 2 This was a tough fight to score. I had Holmes ahead but there were a few close...
Of course. I think even for the time, the ref was generous to Randolph, probably because the fight was in Washington and it was a world title...

Iran Barkley.
Yes!
Miguel Cotto v Shane Mosley Watched this one courtesy of @UndergroundBoxing’s recommendation and it was a lot of fun. Strange in places, though....
