    How'd he pull that off and what's next for him? Did anyone see that fight?

    I didn't see the fight. Is there going to be a rematch?

    Verno didn't beat Spinks, the judges did.

    If you think about it, Spinks really should be the undisputed MW champion, which is an incredible feat. Not many people can say they were the undisputed WW and MW champ.

    I don't have a scorecard for him and Taylor because I fell asleep for about half the fight. What I did see I gave Spinks the edge.
