Am I the only one rooting for Cory?

[Xplosive]

Theres only been ONE previous time where Ive rooted for Chingy Spinks, and thats when he fought that abortion Mayorga. But next week will mark the 2nd time I'll be rooting for him. If he beats Taylor it'll be the funniest thing in years, and will serve Jermain right for having fought only TWO legit middleweights in his entire career. Cory's chances are virtually zero, but I hope and pray that he schools the shit outta that country music bumping, modeling bum!

[Free Ike]

Yes and frankly if someone said that to my face I might kill them. You are an ok guy, I guess, X. However, I will never forgive you for this thread. I might cheer for Pol Pot over Spinks. He is cancer to the eyes. Stinks is easily the most boring fighter in history. I hope we see the first in ring decapitation. I want to see Corey's head on one side of the ring, like that Evander Holyfield commercial, and a shooting geyser of blood shooting through the sky.Honestly, I really hope Stinks gets KTFO Ruiz/Tua style, 10 seconds is not enough. 10 minutes would be nice and hopefully Cory Stinks retires in disgrace!!

That is no excuse. Cory Stinks is the lowliest boxer on Earth. He really puts the Stin in Stink. I am no fan of Taylor, but come fight night Lou Dibella won't cheer more than I will for Taylor. I hope Stinks is beheaded.

You might get your wish. But if Taylor doesnt get him early, I think we're in for a fight that'll make Ruiz-Oquendo look like Corrales-Castillo.

But if it were up to me, Cory schools the sloppy fuck for 12 rounds and embarasses him. But even when Taylor wins, at least I'll have comfort in knowing that Miranda will molest him.

Taylor is a creation of special interests and the need to screw Hopkins and bad judging... everything that sucks in boxing, or mathmatically speaking: {everything bad about boxing}= Taylor. He has no skills to speak of and when he goes down Stewart will have to shut up. He got humiliated by Winky and practically laid out by Hops, he should be fighting in smokey nightclubs.

God bless this post! How Taylor was able to "beat" Hopkins twice defies all rational thought, and reasoning because the guy still fights like fuckin amateur, and has no skill(unless you listen to Sly who'd have you believe he's the second coming of Hearns). Taylor blows monkey dick, and I hope Cory schools him! Its a pipe dream I know, but if Taylor wins(which he will in all likelyhood) than I pray the winner of Miranda-Pavlik decapitates him!

I will pray to Chinus Maximus about this. He listens to me. If I had prayed to Chinus asking for Oscar to stop Floyd, Floyd would be out cold still!! Cory is going to sleep. I am praying to Chinus. He is getting sodomized so you stinks lovers can cry like your hero. Pray he let's him out of his Coma.


Lol, Miranda is not going to beat Taylor here or on Mars EVERRRRR.

Taylor has a shit chin IMO. He's NEVER been in w/a puncher in his entire career, and old man Hopkins(who's never been a puncher) had him on queer street. Miranda will clean his clock!

Miranda is not a big puncher. His power is sickly overrated. He would be the biggest puncher JT fought though.

[Free Ike]

I wouldn't look past Kelly Pavlik.
Pavik is the puncher and he has a puncher's chance. However, his chin is very, very bad. Miranda is pretty weak chinned, but he is Oliver Mcall compared to Pavlik. Pavlik has an ounce of skill , 2 times the amount Miranda has, and a punchers chance. I could see Miranda breaking Pavlik's china though although Pavlik is a live dog.

I am also pulling for Cory Spinks. Perhaps because me and his pops got the same name. Naw that ain't it. I just think that JT is garbage. He fuken sucks and I am so fuking tired of him fighting smaller guys. I mean how in hell can he sleep at night knowing that not only is a middleweight facing a jr. middle weight but he's a huge middle weight at that. Yeah I know it takes big balls to put on a pair of gloves but he's still a pussy for his opponent selection. I'll Holla 5000

I HOPE that you're the only one. Why would any boxing fan want a man who was KOed by Zab Judah, at 147lbs, being the champion of boxing's best division?? If that were to happen, the sport would be a JOKE!!

No man that "hanged" tough with Hopkins in two fights (and Wright), deserves to lose to Cory Spinks.

[Kenny]

I hate Taylor, but at least he fights. If you jump on the ground to avoid a punch you desearve to be credited a knockdown even if the other guy didn't connect. Mayorga should have 2 or 3 knockdown for making spinks look like a bitch.

If Spinks wins it will be the dagger in this generation of boxing. A sucky heavyweight division I can take, but a mediocre runner like Spinks being the undisputed middle- and welterweight champion is just too much. :doh:

[Ugotabe Kidding]

Cory will take it for sure. He is the most underrated great fighter in the past ten years. His skill is unbelievable

I too will be rooting for Corey as I never cared much for JT's mediocre skills and talent level. I learned to hate him even more after realizing his disgraceful opposition selection which doesn't get nearly the criticism as it should. Whenever someone mentions Taylor's name others who hear it should instantly dismiss him. Spinks can be a cancer on the eyes but since he's given little chance to win it will make it that much sweeter when he does. Worry not Spinks fans, because Corey will expose the flaws in JT's skill or lack thereof.

Hopkins is going down as an all time great regardless. Even if Taylor loses, at this point it has NO affect on B-Hop's legacy. 20 years from now none will even care, or remember about the Hopkins-Taylor fights because they were so terrible. People will give B-Hop a pass for losing cause he was 40 years old, and he won both fights anyway, just not to the blind ass judges.

I hope Jermain Taylor whups his ass. Taylor P4P#2

[paboxing123]

I hope Spinks wins. I think he has a lot better shot then a lot of people are given him.

[puerto rock]

I really wouldn't be surprised if Spinks pulls something off here. He's tricky and hard to hit. And JT didn't look right against Ouma. Something is definitely off. Logic tells us Taylor via KO but logic also told us that very same thing when JT fought Ouma.


I think Spinks will make Taylor look bad one way or another and I hope he wins.

Just when I think everyone on this site knows boxings most basic rule, I have to come on here and remind another pea brained poster that styles make fights. JT's crappy style just gives Hops trouble, just because an average fighter beats a great fighter doesn't make the average fighter great, nor does it make every fighter who beats that average fighter great either. That's a little boxing info for you.

REED is Also Pulling for Spinks,for the Same Reason as Most...

Taylor's Opposition...

When U ADD Gift Decisions/Draws to a SHITTY Resume,U DESERVE to Lose to a Guy like Spinks...

Along w/Being a SOUTHPAW,Spinks is Fairly ATHLETIC & VERY Hard to Hit...

w/Taylor's TERRIBLE Footwork,he's NOT Gonna B Able to Corner Cory OR Cut the Ring Off Effectively...

This is a VERY BAD Matchup for Taylor,but it'll Serve his Ass Right to FINALLY Lose...& to a MUCH Smaller Man,@ that...

He had long enough to become a mandotory challenger at 147 but decided to keep his WBOgus title instead. Baldomir got himself in a posistion for a shot and took his chance when it came.

[teamtucker2007]

Both are great, one is a great boxer and the other is a great puncher.
I feel Spinks has what it takes to box Jermain and get a close split. Jermain on the other hand has the power to either end the fight early by KO or take the fight outta Spinks to where he will win by unanimous, but it all depends on if and how early Spinks taste the power of jermaine...shout out to both of em doe...we were in the amateurs together...me and Jermaine went to fight in Dublin, Ireland back in 99..we did our thang!! Me and Cory fought in his hometown at the Nationals..We both looked good, and I won the best fighter of the tournament by the skin on my teeth!!...

[LATIN KING]

I am rooting for Spinks. I am not a big fan but I can apreciate a skilled fighter.

But mostly because Spinks is doing what most boxers fail to do which is take chances. FAns always bitch about most boxers dont' take chances and here is a guy who has no business fighting at 160. Also the more I watch TAylor the less I like him.

For Taylor's sake he better KO Spinks. Cause even a W by decision should be considered a loss for him. I guess Emanuel will say spinks just had the style to give him problems. Yeah I guess lately everyone has had the style to give him problems. :rolleyes:

[valdosta]

Well, a guy like Spinks has no choice but to take chances if he wants to get any paydays. Yeah the guy has some skills but the holding and running suck. I can see why someone can like a counterpuncher like JMM, but Spinks is a disgusting fighter to me. I hate his slap,hold and run style.

[Free Ike]

People who think Cory Stinks is very skilled should watch Ice Skating. He is a "24 fitness tae bo" fighter. Many fighters could fight like he does, but don't because they have honor and dignity. Stinks is a disgrace to the sport, a disgrace to fighters. I find it hilarious anyone defends his stinky ass. He is so boring Showtime refused to air his last fight. That is all you need to know.

I think calling either great is a bit much, especially in JT's case. Great puncher my ass, a great puncher would have KO'd Ouma. What he is though, is a great bullshit artist.

I wish JT had been around when guys like Vargas and Reid thought they were clever in thinking they could pick on a (so called) blown up welterweight named Trinidad. I wish Tito were around so JT could try that one because he doesn't deserve to merely get pitty patted to a decision loss, he deserves a career ending beating.

I will never, and I repeat NEVER root for Cory Spinks!! He is probably the most boring fighter I've ever seen. What's worse, if he beats Taylor we will get his traditional emotional breakdown after the fight where he's crying uncontrollably in the center of the ring, (sobs),"I am,.....a maaan! I aahhhmm a mmmaan!(sobs)".

If one emoticon sums up Cory Spinks its.....:slap:

Can someone please get this guy out of boxing?

Taylor has fought some juniour middleweights but at least he holds two wins over Hopkins and a win over Wright. Much more that Spinks has ever done. I'd rather Spinks suffer the setback than Taylor who's been in there with the best and isn't as boring.

[Double L]

it's a no-win situation for boxing. if Taylor wins, and let's say he wins impressively, he'll be over-rated as hell for having beaten yet another welter-weight (is it possible he might actually knock his guy out this time?).

if Spinks wins, we'll have a boring ass DK fighter as champion, he won't fight Pavlik, and he'll next be seen on Showtime fighting some guy nobody's heard of.

now, if Taylor wins unimpressively, it means we'll have sat through 12 boring as hell rounds.

and btw, the only way Spinks wins is through boredom.

crappy match-up. DiBella should be ashamed of himself for making it. he no longer has any credibility to say anything. he's just another punk ass promoter now. and one of the worst as far as match-making.

Stinks has zero chance to win this fight. This fight sorta reminds me of Terry Norris vs. Meldrick Taylor, except I doubt it will end in a quick knockout.

What you've said here is 100% accurate.

[Erratic]

I think he's an ugly fighter to watch, but I like Taylor. I guess it's because he seems like a likeable guy and because he gave Hopkins an immediate rematch, then fought Winky, and was willing to give Winky a rematch right away. He could be good for the sport so I want him to do well.

Still, his choice of opposition in his last two fights have been dissapointing. If he fights another small guy after this then I might start disliking him.

[slystaff]

Yeah, after Fighting the great Hopkins', Taylor has done something no other GREAT Middleweight has done and that is defend against Former Welterweights/Jnr Middleweights

I can only think of one other guy who did such a horrendous thing:

Marvin Hagler

Duran - Former LIGHTWEIGHT
Leonard - WELTERWEIGHT with one fight in 6 years
Hearns - Welterweight moving up from 154 lbs
Mugabi - Jnr Middleweight



What's with these Middleweights defending against smaller fighters. What a disgrace!

[Free Ike]

JT is wrong by tsking this fight on the heels of his fight with Ouma, but the guy did fight Hopkins and Wright and I think he should be 1-1-1 in those fights but he has fought good fighters. You guys act like he is Roy taking 10 years to pad his record. Frankly, he should have scheduled a fight with Sturm, Abraham, Pavlik or Miranda, but you all are acting like he has never stepped up when in reality outside of Corrales he fought the biggest names in his division.

I might agree with this post when I see who Taylor fights after Spinks. I am hoping for the winner of Pavlik/Miranda.

Taylor hasn't won impressively lately, but how many people won impressively against Hop? Wright? It disappointed me that he didn't KO Ouma, but lets not forget that Ouma is world class fighter/former world champ.

Theres only been ONE previous time where Ive rooted for Chingy Spinks, and thats when he fought that abortion Mayorga. But next week will mark the 2nd time I'll be rooting for him. If he beats Taylor it'll be the funniest thing in years, and will serve Jermain right for having fought only TWO legit middleweights in his entire career. Cory's chances are virtually zero, but I hope and pray that he schools the shit outta that country music bumping, modeling bum! a stinks victory means easy mark for floyds sixth division.

Actually....truer words have seldom been spoken. If Spinks wins..Floyd is sure to challenge him and Spinks is sure to accept.

Yeah, after Fighting the great Hopkins', Taylor has done something no other GREAT Middleweight has done and that is defend against Former Welterweights/Jnr Middleweights

I can only think of one other guy who did such a horrendous thing:

Marvin Hagler

Duran - Former LIGHTWEIGHT
Leonard - WELTERWEIGHT with one fight in 6 years
Hearns - Welterweight moving up from 154 lbs
Mugabi - Jnr Middleweight



What's with these Middleweights defending against smaller fighters. What a disgrace!

Taylor is getting more criticism because of his pattern of fighting smaller guys before he won the title, and recently as well.

Hagler fought a slew of quality middleweights before he won the title, and after he won the title as well. He fought the big names who were smaller guys, but a whole lot of tough middleweights as well.

And Mugabi spent his time at both 154 and 160. He was the top middleweight contender when Hagler beat him.
