    Instead of fighting Foster, Tiger fights Spinks. Does the Tiger maul the Jinx or does the Jinx turn the Tiger into a housecat?

    Same results except Spinks gets the job done in the later rounds. Spinks has the size advantage, was too clever to get into a fire fight with Tiger and he also has the power to get him out of there when the opportunity presented itself.

    Spinks, but Tiger is as game as the day is long.

    Spinks boxes his ears off, maybe stops him

    Spinks Jinxes him in a similar way to Foster, too big, too good, Tiger can’t take what Spinks gives and it’d become evident very quickly.

    This one could actually be interesting. You could draw some parallels between Tiger's style at 175 and that of Eddie Davis, and how he approached his fight with Spinks. Could be trouble for Spinks there.

    But solid betting would dictate you bank on Spinks' jab and awkward movement to frustrate Tiger en route to a decision victory.
