Why was Michael Spinks though as someone who could dethrone Tyson?

the way he beat Cooney!

 

Bill I remember the lead up to this fight and I don't remember anyone giving Spinks a chance at all, who would after seeing what he did to Holmes.

 

Whenever you get a matador vs bull matchup though, there are some that will always favour the boxer...even if it's only out of hope than reason.

 

Yeah that was in June of 1988. Lot's of tite pants and lipstick at that one:good

 

And a liberal splattering of weed getting around i dare say :good

 

Yes indeed. The air was rich with the sweet fragrance.

.....Ahhhhh, sometimes its hard to believe those days are long gone..... Shame we have to get old, eh John?

 

Yeah, it's an even bigger shame i never had as many concert opportunities

I was bad enough with just mainly INXS and Midnight Oil going around

 

I remember seeing INXS at the Narrabeen Antler, now long gone, and ACDC at my school dance quite a while back JT.

 

At the shchool dance, now's there some nostalgia!

 

back in 1975, I have been telling this story for years, whenever ACDC get mentioned.

 

..salsaguy..i'm sorry you found my post so difficult. have someone help you look in the phone book for place that teaches remedial reading.

 

Because they wre both undefeated. That would be my guess.

I figured that Tyson would beat him, badly, and he did. Spinks was a blown up light heavy, and would be perfect for Tyson.
