You stupid idiot.

I think Spinks as a heavy was past his best. My memory is as a 17 year old winning an Olymipic gold against a 300 bout Russian 26 year old and bashing the fuck out of him. I was impressed

The Spinks Jinx was a hard punch. I am not sure it is as sharp as Tommy Hearns right hand or John Mugabi's left hook, but it is hard and it would have been thrown at a division which Hagler was not accustomed to.
