Watch Spinks vs Phillips Live & Free Online Thursday night

[CutMeMick]

Okay, it was the worst decision of the past decade, and quite possibly the worst decision of my entire life fair enough... Admittedly, it is the most fresh in my mind - I did forget about the Santa Cruz robbery... but anyone who knows boxing, and I know the people on this site do, knows that Spinks got absolutely robbed.

Ali-Norton
Chavez-Whitaker
and now Phillips-Spinks

right there with'em man.

Something tells me someone heres on the Spinks payroll....

This could work out well for Spinks. He is boring to watch, and doesnt sell well outta St Louis. His biggest chance of drawing a big crowd may be a rematch with Verno.
I mean if word gets around that Cory was robbed first fight then more ppl may wanna tune in to see what happens in the second.

Well he got 9000 in there on a Thursday night, not bad. I don't know, I'm not to happy. Spinks told Fightnews he was disappointed in himself so he took the high road. I think an immediate rematch is definitely in order though and I hope it happens fairly soon.

Notice how Spinks does not mention anything abou the decision. But does state he let himself down and hes upset with himself.

Words of a defeated man if you ask me.

Better than a stupid excuse like most guys come up with now. I think he knew he sholdnt have let it get close enough for Verno to win.

I agree.
But he could have said something like: I don't agree with the decision. I felt I pulled it off. I was a close fight but I got the nod.

Not an excuse but words of him not feeling like he lost.

I thought Spinks won the fight, but to be honest I was posting and surfing the net at the same time so didn't pay that much attenttion.

From listening to Bob Sheridan I was assuming Spinks was cakewalking it but I should have remembered that Bob has never had a clue when it comes to judging fights.
