    The best HW version of Spinks vs prime Barret. Is Monte as great as we think he is???

    Monte wins by way of a devastating hadouken in the first round. TKO1 Barret.

    Looks like tongue in cheek thread but for what it's worth Spinks UD or late TKO.

    Spinks decision.

    Monte is not as easy to hit as Tangstad or Cooney & lasts the distance. 8-4 type scoring in an uneventful fight.

    We never really got a chance to see Spinks against solid decent heavyweight s apart from Holmes and Tyson so even against guys such as Monte, we can't say for certain. But I'll give the jinx the benefit of the doubt and say he ducks and dives to a close decision win.

    Barrett beat Tua who beat Maskaev who beat Williams who beat Tyson who beat, you guessed it, Spinks. There’s your answer.

    Spinks shares the cell with Matias and Conwell after this murder.

    Seriously, you are all dumb. The better, more relevant, and thought provoking question is, who does Barrett have as his partner for the tag team throw down against the Stinks Bros in a final eliminator on Bizarro world? I think Barrett calls up Valuev and they pretty much join forces, kill both the Stinks, and although offered ownership/stewardship over all of the Bizzaro people and homelands, But then Valuev finally proves itself to not a be a giant mute by saying "This plae is a chitwhole, worse then RUssian hole of chit I from come.." the then smash the Bizarro's, hith a ride from the Silver Surfer who, in tough times is a sorta intergalactic Uber.After that, by next March they will have subjected 85% of the planet under their collective boot heel.

    I saw Monte Barrett fight several time, I just never saw a "Great" Monte Barrett.

    Regeardless, Spinks beats him senseless.
