Spinks, as great a lightheavyweight he was, at heavyweight he was a joke. Beating a mentally depressed, cokea addicted Cooney? An unfocused, old...
If i had to bet, i'd bet on Mosley by decision... i think he has a good chance to outlast Margarito's shots and win a few rounds during the...
What do you mean by "when the Wills fight could have materialized" ? Dempsey didn't want to fight a n*ggers after he was badly hurt by one in...
