Outside of a young Tyson, how would Spinks have done if he continued?

    I don´t like him against Bruno (I don´t think he´d take that fight), he´d look better against Williams, Tubbs, fighters like this. Could also beat Thomas eventually.
    Holmes version of Spinks against 205 Holyfield would be nice to watch, the later version of Spinks doesn´t make the distance against Evander.

    You may laugh, but I think Tommy Burns would do better than Spinks at heavyweight in the late 80s, early 90s.

    He would either beat more people or beat them more emphatically. For example, I think that Burns may have beaten a prime Riddick Bowe and prime Lennox Lewis. Both by KO.
