Wladimir plans to box for 10 more years to break Joe louis' record

Adamek better than Spinks? You got to be kidding me.

At HW it seems so.

Why don't you take a trip down memory lane a review the whole Tyson vs Spinks fight. That guy was not fit to be in the same ring as a modern HW as evidence by the ridiculous ease with which Tyson eliminated him.

Adamek would have been a much more durable opponent for Tyson, atleast he can sustain verticality for more than a fraction of a round!

What was Spinks very first fight at heavyweight? What was his second fight at heavyweight?

Exactly dick brain.....

Yeah 2 wins against a great fighter, that really is special, takes on a very strong but dummy fighter next, then a completely embarrassing massacre from another great HW.

Problem is, Cooney was not a mover.

Holmes was not a puncher.

Spinks is probably about as good as Cunningham in my estimation.

Tyson, he was a mover AND a puncher, not a common combination before Tyson but very common afterwards.

Take Adamek's best win at HW, Chris Arreola, not as fast as a prime Homes obviously but still very fast for a 240lber! Plus rangier and with savage KO power.

Can you see Michael Spinks flipping around the ring all night withstanding Chris? I can't. He did not have the chin for that I don't reckon.

At the end of the day, Spinks virtually tied Holmes on points but didn't really hurt him.

Google Michael Spinks and then google Tomasz Adamek as well, I hate to break out strength and stuff like that again but it's a relevant side issue here. Most non-boxing people would look at both and dismiss Spinks of having much chance. Adamek is a good fighter man. Not saying Spinks was not either!
