agreed, same with Moore, Foster and Spinks case closed.
WBU is purely meaningless....Even Bowe was not recognized UNTIL he dominated his way from WBU to EVery title on earth and defended it enough to times to quiet down his detractors.
this was of course before many of you were born.
Re: HOF VOTE: MICHAEL SPINKS
So what's the verdict?
Re: HOF VOTE: MICHAEL SPINKS
Inconclusive.

Re: HOF VOTE: MICHAEL SPINKS
Buzz if you want to nominate Rosenbloom then do so in the HOF thread.
But by your logic, if Rosenbloom does deserve to get in then that also means Calzaghe does too, who went 2-1 over your man and dethroned Rosenbloom.
But to be honest, I don't think Joe belongs in the HOF. He was a tough fight for anyone and fought them all with some success but he was not part of the elite, just a good top 10 fighter . The point is if Rosenbloom and Calzaghe got in it would be lowering the bar but feel free to nominate whoever you want.

How many world title defences (not WBU) did Spinks make?

If I'm reading his history right, it looks like he was 3-3-1 in world title fights, with one defense.Neri wrote:How many world title defences (not WBU) did Spinks make?
