    Yes , and by stoppage . And that despite I consider Spinks as better than Bob Foster . Spinks looks **** on film that looks worthy 2 watch on paper , Foster's fights at light heavy aren't even worth d watching and he was KOd by Jones .
    I don't think that Michael Spinks hit much harder than Cautious Play and i do think that it is possible that he didn't take a punch much better and wasn't much more elusive and then Jones beat Clay also .
    Does Spinks hit harder than Zora Folley ? I doubt it again and Jones 1ce lasted d distance with Folley and 1ce KOd him .

    I agree.

    Not at 175 does Jones beat Michael Spinks. NOBODY ever did, and Jones wasn't that good. He gave a young Clay a rough go at heavyweight, of course, not at 175.

    Jones likely gives Spinks some trouble at 175 . . . and then Michael knocks him out after rd. 9 or 10. Or wins a UD at worst.
