He beat you twice Larry (TWICE) get over it, and I didn’t even rate Spinks that highly. I think Holmes should be thankful that he was fighting in an era of mediocrity and besides Tyson put him well and truly in his place.

True.
I think Spinks fairly won the first fight 9-6. The rematch, Holmes won 9-6 on my card.

Holmes had a couple of debatable decisions before that go his way regardless, like the Tim Witherspoon fight and Carl Williams as well.
