    Maybe not, I wouldn't fancy Spinks against the version that faced Ettiene and maybe not the version that lost to Williams.

    If Spinks freezes he could suffer the same fate as Ettiene.

    If Spinks boxes and moves I don't see shot Tyson getting to him.

    Tyson post prison was technically a mess no jab no head movement and was flat footed and had poor stamina I'm not convinced he would have beat the Larry Holmes of 1988.

    How was he not trying? He was being aggressive in hopes of getting Tyson's respect.
