    2 Undisputed Welterweight Champions. Cory Went North. Judah Went South. Who did better at the end of the day, and I don't mean who made more money, obviously it was Zab.

    Judah record post Spinks 9-5-1

    Spinks record post Judah: 5-4

    Really interesting. Judah would lose to Baldomir less than a year later. and never beat a world class fighter again(Matthysse was/is an unknown quantity. His lack of mental toughness and composure were exposed and the blueprint was known. Survive the early storm and pressure..he'll crack.


    Spinks would go up to 154 and win a strap, although he never was a really relevant fighter. Going life and death with Jermain Taylor is probably the best accomplishment between the two men post their fight.


    I'd say Judah because of activity, but it really is close.

    I was very surprised by Spinks performance against Taylor. Haven't watched it in a while, as its hard to find

    Zab, I can't say he did much but he stayed relevant and a dangerous gatekeeper

    Spinks gave jt problems at middle. won a belt at 154, undisputed welterchamp. All in all though id say zab. Close though an you could argue either one
