i think hes a good fighter i also thought he won against cory spinks who agrees or disagrees?

I had him winning against Spinks as well. Latimore is a fighter who seriously needs to fight more often. He's too inactive.

Latimore is very much a fundamentals first guy, and I think that hurt him on the cards against Spinks. Because as we know most judges don't know how to score a fight. Spinks looks the flashier boxer even if he wasn't more effective.

I like Latimore, but as VD said he absolutely needs to be fighting more often, he needs to be on an Adamek schedule rather than a Hopkins schedule. I still have a lot of respect for him coming in as an opponent against Powell and not getting rattled by the lights, sticking to a plan that was working and perservering where he set up to fail. Now if he is able to pull it off against Powell again he really needs to start calling out names.

Was a breath of fresh air when he came in vs Powell.Even though it turned out Powell was puffing on the ganja Latimore def had the style and desire going it.Has a fun style,a little erratic but thought he did enough vs Spinks as well.Not making strides in the name department and thought he could springboard off Spinks fight exposure but did not happen...now hes back to square on with Powell rematch.Not many get a second chance and I think he tops Powell again.
