i thought spinks made the fight more watchable since taylor didnt throw much. its a shame how floyd won against dela hoya fighting almost the same fight as spinks(sp?) yet taylor won by not throwing much

Spinks threw 500+ punches and landed 80+Quote:

I've not seen the fight yet so can't comment.
Aside from some posters on here though I've read nothing on the net that suggests that Taylor didn't deserve the win although everywhere labels it as a snoozefest.
The best part of the fight was watching Emanuel Steward loose his cool in the corner. He was heated.Quote:

and no that was nothing like PBF. PBF was more accurate than spinks and landed the harder shots than his opponent.
It's all about who's favored. Taylor was favored and he won because of it, and I think that is why PBF won. Spinks and PBF were very simalier PBF was more accurate, but I strongly disagree with the harder shots comment.Quote:

Taylor didn't do much.
PBF rocked DLH throughout the fight.
PBF and DLH did way more in there fight than spinks and taylor.
DLH tried to jump on PBF in there fight. Taylor never tried to jump on spinks.
PBF through less and landed more than DLH. Spinks through more and landed less taylor.
PBF landed the cleaner and harder shot in his fight with DLH. Taylor landed the cleaner harder shots in his fight with spinks.
A little too much. I got a little tired of him yelling when Taylor was winning. There was a reason Taylor was not punching, obviously he felt it was safer to win a decision.. he tried to land the right, but Spinks took it well.Quote:
