    Im having a hard time envisioning that If he beat Spinks he would leave behind the massive future paydays of Tyson and/or a rematch with Holmes.

    But if he did stay away (let's say injury or something), him and Holmes would be elevated. Gerry would be looked at as more of a "what if" since he walked away at age 30 on the top of his game.
