    Could Spinks stink the night away en route to a decision victory?

    A prime Tito chases him out of the ring.

    If Tito doesnt have his special wraps, Spinks by UD. - Double L

    The unwanted truth is, Spinks would jab and move his way to a decision against the mud-shoe
     
  7. The funny thing is...this is likely to be EXACTLY Double L's position.
     
  8. Very possible. A slippery southpaw like Spinks may just be too much of a stylistic nightmare for Tito to overcome....although Tito is the better fighter.

    LMAO at Spinks beating him

    Spinks would run for his fucking life and hardly risk even jabbing at Trinidad... Hopkins, Hoya, they had more than just jabs and skills, they were tough and had power Trinidad had to respect... Winky was different from them but still a strong, durable guy and compared to Spinks, he might as well punch like Julian Jackson

    Spinks either runs for his life and lives to hear a one-sided decision loss, or he gets caught eventually and takes a nice nap

    Spinks has NO SHOT! Lets be real here.

    Anyone who thinks Spinks wins this is a nutter

    Agreed!
     
  13. I wouldn't have thought that Spinks would have beaten Judah, or Mayorga or lasted the distance with HUGE Jermaine Taylor. But he did.

    Tito doesn't like people that move too much and/or have great defense.

    It's not out of the realm of probability that Spinks wins.

    You need OFFENSE in order to keep Trinidad off of you

    It's easy to last in fights when you run at all costs, as Spinks always did

    Trinidad is a way better fighter than Judah or Mayorga, with far superior offensive firepower and he's vastly more offensively gifted than Jermain Taylor

    He'd laugh at Spinks

    Spinks SUCKED, dude... he's got NOTHING for Trinidad

    A guy in that went life and death with Roman Karmazin, beat Tito? *Ed Lover voice* Cmonnn son, cmonnn.

    he also went life and death with a 900 year old version of the guy Pete Whitaker embarrassed to win the 140 pound belt back in 1992-- Rafael Pineda

    Trinidad would brutalize Stinks and perform an oophorectomy on him

    Spinks would have lost to David Reid, Oba Carr, and Vargas would have raped him.

    Reid was really shit, in my eyes, so that one I'm iffy about... the other two? I agree completely

    You have to be kidding. Spinks fell all over the ring trying to run away from Mayorga. Trinidad would decapitate him.

    Well on this forum according to many, anyone who has a jab and some slick skills beats Trinidad.:boring:


    In all seriousness.... Trinidad absolutely DESTROYS Spinks. Cory would trouble him early with his running but he would get caught eventually. He has no power to deter Trinidad at all, and unlike Hopkins, has no infighting skills.

    Tito hardly breaks a sweat here.

    For the first time in the history of fightbeat I'm gonna pick Tito in a MM without any spirit of vomit choking resentment.

    Spinks had to use his great lateral movement in that fight because Mayorga took punches well. Trinidad didn't, so Spinks has a good shot of knocking him out somewhere after the early rounds

    Remember that Mayorga gave free shots to Forrest, then didn't do it against Spinks and again did it in the Tito fight. I think it is obvious he respected and perhaps feared Spinks' punch
