There are more empty seats than I would expect at a Cory Spinks fight in St. Louis.
I hope Verno pulls it off he desreves a big payday.
Yeah mark it down for me. I'm going with Phillips to win this. This fight is worth a wild card bet as I'm never convinced by Cory.
Wow the crowd got ripped don't the ticket prices usually include a concert during the walk in with spinks ??
i think the idea is to use the free events to introduce people to lesser known fighters for future PPVs, they had 3 young fighters on the undercard here, i think thet there will be alot of free events in the future, don king has no problem putting on PPVs, i think he started tis to try to have an outlet to provide free fights to increase interest in PPVs, tho im sure he will make money off tis site aswell, if u make an account he is selling past fights on the site
It is a Thursday night and from the looks of it, most of the crowd is on the floor rather then in the seats which is typical when they have fights at hockey arenas. They were able to make a lot of noise during the Alexander fight so I imagine it's a fairly sizable crowd. A few thousand or so.
Pray 4 left hooks-Pray 4 left hooks-Please oh please.I fear Spinks may make Phillips look 50 years old though
Get the kleenex ready........Heeeeeeeeres Spinks
don king is freakin loud
spinks took that round at the end
Geeezus look at spinks body !!! Just how many times has this muthafucka been stabbed ??!!
What are those marks on Corey's body, he looks like he's been flayed with a cat'o'nine tails

This announcer is bias. From the way he sounds you would think Philips hasn't landed one shot.
Wasn't it his girlfriend who stabbed him? I thought that's what kept him out so long after the Judah loss.
Anyways, he's looking good. Controlling distance well, as always very fast with the hands and he has the right hook working very nicely. Still, this was to be expected, it's the second half of the fight where the question marks come into play for Cory.

I don't know, maybe he can because the pressure Spinks is bringing isn't consistent but as good as Spinks has looked in the early going before, he's looked equally as bad in the later rounds. So who knows. Although he doesn't look tired.Quote:

The stream aint working for me. What do you guys score the rounds so far?
I'm as big a critic of spinks as anyone but i really don't understand the booing...the only thing i can think is after seeing a bunch of ko's on the undercards the expectation level might be a little higher. I'm not sure which spinks they thought was fighting tonight since they all showed up, but cory's fights are always like this
I bet that's not the first time that's happened at a Cory Spinks fight.Quote:

I agree. I'm surprised at the booing viewing as well. You would think they had never seen a Cory Spinks fight before.Quote:

Better for Phillips. He needs to stop leaping, when he sits down on his punches he has better success.
And "Rude Boy" is the worst boxing nickname of all time.
Did Sheridan just give Spinks credit for not going down when Philips lunged into him? Does he hold Spinks jock for a living or is it just for this fight.
Spinks is winning????
You ever see Boogie Nights?.....Quote:

Spinks is winning hands down BoomBoom, the last two were closer as was the first but going into the 9th, I've given Cory every round. Some good spots for Verno the last two rounds though.

yes. Just outboxing him in most rounds. The three inch height advantage combined with Spinks jab is making it hard for Philips to do anything effective.Quote:
