Michael Spinks Vs Evander Holyfield, 1988

Tyson pulls out the unification bout with an injury, Holyfield is late replacement. Spinks 212lb, Holyfield 205lb. Who wins.

 

I'll take Holyfield. Obviously not the same kind of quick blowout but i still think he had enough to win even though he hadn't fully grown into the division yet.

 

gotta go with Holy

 

Spinks Beats the Qawi I Version of Holyfield by CLOSE Decision, but By the Time Evander Unified the Crusierweight Division He Was a Bit Tooooooooooo SPRY, COMBATIVE, STRONG and SEASONED for Any Version of Spinks...

Holy By CONVINCING Decision Or Even a Late Stoppage, 9ish or Later...




REED

 

Agreed.

 

Holy

"you can choose against me anytime.. but you can't choose against GOD, when God in charge.. and Jesus alive... "

 

this is one of my all time favorite interviews.. the frustration from Ferdie is great LOLOL

 

That Holy interview makes me love him..

Ferdie is all "lets get off of that... what about BOXING" and Holy just plows forward with God and Jesus LOL

 

Good grief what a moron I hadn't watched that in years, and I had to pause it at halfway

 

i love the way at one point Ferdie looks kinda away and has a defeated look on his face

 

212 was not a good weight for Spinks anyway. An indication he was probably already mentally retired by that time.

 

Stevie Johnson dropped a game winning TD pass at the end of a game and then tweeted this:

 

Holyfield wins this, UD or maybe stops Spinks in the later rounds.
