Spinks' awkward style combined with his boxing skills and power against Foster's jab and own crushing power. Both in their respective primes at light heavyweight. 15 rounds
Wow.... I would go with Spinks tentatively. Let me go check something about Foster and get back to you.
Hell of a matchup, but I'd have to take Spinks. To be honest, some of it probably has to do with the fact that I underrate Foster's durability, even though he only showed vulnerabilities at HW. Still though, while Foster did have a good jab and great reach, he was very hittable, and I think an awkward power-puncher like Spinks would land on him more often, likely before Foster landed the big right straight or left hook. Spinks by KO. When? Can't really say, probably mid-rounds.
I'll take Ezzard Charles. Jones is a close call, but I'd have to favor Spinks to catch him at some point.
I saw micheal spinks hit an opponent so hard with an uppercut that it lifted his feet a good 4 inches off the canvass. That was the last punch of the night! NEVER bet against Spinks at 175! Boo
