Michael Spinks Ring Magazine Photos

[danundisputed]

Hi Boxing Fans!

At the moment I'm searching for photos of Michael Spinks with his IBF belt.
I found these photos on this link
http://www.gettyimages.at/Search/Search ... pinks+belt
and want to know in which issue of The Ring Magazine they appeared!
Or if anybody got those photos without this "gty im numbers" let me know.
I'm also searching for a Michael Spinks photo with his Heavyweight Ring Magazine Belt, still without success.
So if anybody got those photos I'm searching for please be so kind and email me them to:

I would bet most of these photos were from the December 1985 issue of Ring.

The photos on the page are dated. In the color photos Michael looks a little more stocky. It would stand to reason that they were taken after he moved up to heavyweight, though some were taken before (as dated on the page). I think that's The Ring belt in most of those pictures, not the IBF. Hope this helps.

The belt in the majority of Getty images are the IBF belt, no question.

Thanks for correcting my error. Much appreciated.

He doesn't look very menacing does he, sort of like a gay cowboy in some of those pictures

I'd be curious to know which of those pictures Ring mag chose, in the end.

I've a book called "Knockout: The Art of Boxing" and it seems to concentrate on this period in history, got some good pics in it and Spinks features albeit not as highly as Tyson/SRL et al.
