I liked Joe a lot and think he could have won a few rounds until Spinks figured him out but he would have been taken out between rounds 5-8

Spinks by UD or late stoppage.

Spinks was the best LHW ever. No one would beat him at this weight.

Spinks more pedigree at the higher weight. Jc hard to beat on pts with his work rate. Spinks late stoppage.

Wrong weight for JC. Spinks would get him around the 11th.

Prime Mike Tyson vs Joe Calzaghe would have probably ended quicker than Spinks Tyson.

LMAO okay buddy. Prime Roy Jones murks him, Prime James Toney gives him fits and Prime Andre Ward can most definitely outpoint him.

How many fighters of Spinks' level has Jones murked at the LHW?

In what weight has Toney performed worse than at LHW while he was in his prime years?

How many fights has Ward had in this division and how many of them were really convincing?

Laugh your smart a$$ off after you try to figure this out.

Since you're so smart a$$, maybe you heard something of Dwight Qawi? Btw, what profound answers you've made to the questions, now you can sit down, boy, you got A+.

LMAAAAAAOOOOOOO yeah imma stop entertaining this. You really dont know boxing if you think Qawi is equal to any of the dudes i listed. Jones would Murder him, Toney would beat him, Andre Ward dominates him and Kovalev probably finishes him aswell. Qawi's best win was an over the hill Saad Muhammad.

Dude from the jump i know you dontnknow blxing cause you said Michael fornicating spinks is the best LHW ever. I named guys you would know cause I once you said that you knew jack shit. Even if I were to concede (which im not, they are better) that spinks is better than those 4 men, he sure as HELL aint better than Archie Moore and Gene Tunney would embarrass him. The fact that you think spinks's resume is better than either of these men speaks to your boxing knowledge.

Spinks was much more technically advanced and elusive than Moore FFS. However, I've already noticed, that you are a self-declared floydiot, so no surprise that numbers look for ya more appealing than boxing itself.

First of all im not a floydiot. Literally in every fantasy matchup ive addressed of his (Ray Leonard, Duran, Hearns) ive said he loses.

Second have you only watvhed Old archie moore or have you actually watched his fights from 51 against davidson and others? He is much fastest and looks like a mych looser and better fighter than archie in the Yvon fights.

Yes, I did watch it and Moore indeed was faster than in the late 50s. However, anyway Spinks was a more advanced boxer, with superior speed, slickness, better unorthodox movement, a more polished jab and a faster right hand.
