I think Joey Slapz would be in the lead through 5 rounds as Spinks was a VERY slow and methodical starter. But after that, it's downhill for Joe. Spinks has his style figured out after that, and begins busting him in the face with that piston jab, and putting together combos to go with the jinx. At that point, it'd only be a matter of time before Joe would be out cold.
Spinks Jinx, aint nuth'n too it. The whole world know he aint gonna do it He'll run around the ring for a few rounds But Mike Tyson will run him down. - Larry Holmes
I know....it's just that when you mentioned the Jinx I remembered that poem. Do you remember the hype leading up to the Tyson Spinks fight? It was crazy. people were comparing it to Ali-Frazier 1. I knew that Tyson was going to win in 1 round. No joke. If I was old enough I would have bet my house.
