    The best Haye fights the Spinks of the Holmes fight. Who prevails?

    Michael Spinks is never losing to that fraud.

    Spinks is smarter and can adjust better, he has more tools and is more versatile, Haye is more athletic and explosive, but after stealing some early rounds simply through overwhelming Spinks with aggression and explosiveness, Spinks starts having more success mid-rounds and starts find his timing and Haye gasses and maybe even gets stopped.
    Haye only has one gear and way of fighting, once Spinks adjusts, Haye can only rely on the 1 punch KO power.

    This is a really great matchup, if I had to choose I would choose Spinks because he is more complete and a better fighter, so Spinks by UD...
