    Stiverne has the style and attributes to take Leon Spinks out early, he can take Leon Spinks’ punches, but Leon Spinks can’t take Stiverne’s punches.

    If Spinks can take Stiverne power i think he outhussles him over 12, definitely over 15.

    That’s really how I see it too. Spinks gets overpowered

    Either Stiverne overpowers and KOs Leon in an exciting ring center war, or Stiverne bashes him up and wins a convincing decision. Leon would be fighting fire with fire while also having the worse chin and leaky defense. That's a recipe for disaster with smaller men.
