How would SPinks vs. Mayweather go?

I disagree with you Majesty. Spinks looked good against a very slow limited fighter like Karmazin. And it was only for 6 rounds. Mayweather and Karmarzin styles of fighting are not even close to being similar. So that fight shouldn\'t even be used as an example. I consider Spinks a weak champion. He power is almost a non-factor at 154 and he seems to still have stamina issues. I give him little to no chance against Mayweather

Spinks is a very good fighter, I don't think he gets the credit he deserves for what he's done though. He's only been dropped by Zab Judah who is a hard punching Welterweight and Zab was the only person to drop him.

The first Zab Spinks fight was a classic(in my opinion) there was high drama in that fight and both fighters did good rounds where they were beating the other. Spinks dominated Zab for 3 rounds and then Zab turned it on and started taking roundss and then it was back and forth between Zab and Cory all night and then the high drama Spinks knocked Zab down in the 11th and then Zab came back to knock Spinks down in the final seconds of the 12th and almost stopped him.

I think Harold had it right at a draw. But keep in mind that there wouldn't have been a rematch if Zab hadn't knocked Cory down in that final round so you put that together you get a very good fight that really doesn't get a lot of credit because it was more of a boxing match then a slugfest.

Some slugfests may be classics but to me a classic can be more then a slugfest.

The only weakness I see Cory having is that he's open for awkward right hands like the one Karmazin threw, but credit after that he dominated till round 8 and then slowed down a lot.

But that was his first fight at 154 so I give him some slack. I want to see how he looks against Jones before I gauge how he would do against Mayweather because for 6 rounds of the Karmazin fight I saw someone who could beat Floyd Mayweather.

But thats just my opinion

Fair enough, I saw sometihing/somebody as well who could beat Mayweather, but IMO he wouldn't, but he looked like he would have a better chance than Mosley, Hatton, etc. etc. who are too slow for Mayweather.

PBF would KO spinks.

i like spinks but he has no power and his stamina seems to be a problem. he has a good defense but not nearly as good as PBF. plus spinks has the bad habit of crossing his feet when going backwarks. he also puts is hands down when he does this. that a terrible thing to do when your fighting a good fighter. he did it against zab in there second fight and he was gettin ate up everytime.
