Spinks is MAYBE the best lh ever.Great fighter who was ko'ed by prime Tyson(best prime fighter ever).Spinks did'nt always look good but he always won and that's what counts!! Great upload-love to watch old Spinks fights.

I agree, some people will only remember Spinks for his loss to Tyson. He was one helluva lightheavyweight champ though.

[@AntonioSantiago]

I want to see Spinks-Qawi here!!

[@arkansoul]

This was when light heavyweight was a legitimate division. They were just as competitive as the welter and middleweight classes.

[@celphtitled79]

i had Spinks winning first one clearly,146-139.The second I had a draw 143-143.The only reason there was any controversy was because Spinks danced away the first four rounds.After that,he produced the sharper,cleaner work.Thats why he got the decision

[@AntonioSantiago]

I had the second fight for Holmes 144-143 but not by much. Im tired of people who say Holmes got robbed the first time, through. 145-141 Spinks.

[@BozJust]

Nobody could touch Spinks at 175!

[@ForeverYoung58]

Absolutely...all you see is a thousand posts of Spinks vs. Tyson. What about Spinks KOing Marvin Johnson? Or Yaqui Lopez?...or so many other Light-Heavyweight contenders.

[@tw69hands2]

@AntonioSantiago: Me too...Holmes ate himself out of the championship, and Spinks did what he was supposed to do...Win!

[@bigdaddy4069]

Spinks was a friggin' monster at L- Heavy. Shiiiit!!!

[@AntonioSantiago]

Gene Tunny was a great lh too

[@swedishtysonfan]
