    Tommy before 6, Spinks after. A classic banger early, boxer late fight for me. If Spinks chin didn't have the Tyson question mark I'd pick him to outbox Tommy and stop him sometime after the 8th but if Tommy started with his usual quick bad intentions I could see an early night for him. I think comparisons with Cooney are not apt, although he could also be a fast starter, he didn't have the 'brawl belief' Morrison had. Cooney may have been a better boxer than Tommy but styles make fights and Tommy liked a fight

    I think this is the closest I’ve ever seen you come to complimenting foreman.
