Ali is to quick, and in this scenario would make spinks become the agressor allowing ali to counter and use his speed advantage. Spinks was great at light heavy, not so much at heavyweight
Hitting the pipe today huh? A prime Ali boxes circles around Spinks and probably knocks him out late.
Prime against prime?Are you joking?Spinks is definitely a top5 ATG lightheavy,but at heavy prime Ali boxes his ears off.
Ali. Spinks was wearing those braces at HW and didn't even come close to the footwork that Ali had. Ali would of been aware of the spinx jinx, but Spinks was not the fighter he was at LHW.
The Spinks Jinx would land FLUSH on Ali... and Ali would just laugh it off like he did with natural LHW Bob Foster's punches
Ali's glass jaw would get shattered all over the ring. Look what Cooper did to him. Of course, Spinks' chin may shatter first.
That look on Win's face is priceless. Can we see the full array of her emotions expressed in pictures?
