    Spinks stylistically has a good shot, but I just have difficulty going against Rocky in a 15 round contest.

    I thought Rocky would go all te way, but I like Spinks here, maybe Marciano can win a war of attrition, I don't know, but it sure will be just that if he does

    The one thing that Marciano proved beyond dispute, is that he was a master of breaking down this type of fighter.

    Spinks would do very well here. He might even be ahead when Marciano ends it.

    I give Spinks the first round, but Marciano ends it in round 2.
