    Well, we've all seen what Spinks did to Taylor. Can he go on and achieve more success, if he stays at middleweight?

    If he wants to, he dominates that division, probably lt. heavyweight too.

    No! Pavlik would murder him! I think Miranda would KO him also. Pavlik, and Miranda dont fuck around like Taylor does, they'd jump all over Cory and not let up.

    Cory is better off dropping back down to 154. But then again, Travis Simms would kick his ass at 154, where the hell is Simms anyway?

    Pavlik may KO Spinks, but Spinks-Mirander would look like Spinks-Mayorga.

    Miranda is bigger, and stronger than Mayorga and hits harder. Mayorga gave Cory hell late also. Miranda KO's Spinks.

    At worst Spinks could be #4-5 at Middleweight.......behind the usual..Taylor, Pavlik, Abraham, Miranda...

    ps. Holding Your Own vs "The Champ" ISN'T an Indicator of Spinks Middleweight Potential...

    Spinks and force don't belong in the same sentence

    Spinks would be difficult for anyone at 160, but I can't see him being a top dog at 160.

    Spinks couldn't be a force in his local kindergarten.

    Being top-3 and holding an alphabet title at 154 usually makes you top-10 when you move up to 160. Using the old Nat Fleischer ranking system, he'd probably be ranked #1, right behind Taylor.

    Finaly Alcine gets his shot. He may pull the upset, I cant wait for this one.

    Simms is a bullshitter

    Simms is shot.

    Huh???:dunno:

    REED Said Spinks WON'T B a "Force" @ Middle...

    Just Cause he Won Rounds vs Taylor DOESN'T mean he'll B a "Force" @ 160...

    Spinks can't be a force at any weight. He is far too inconsistent. He has the talent to be a top fighter at 154, but his mental capabilities won't let him. He doesn't have the heart of a champion. Just the way it is.

    Thats right, Abraham is a middlweight title holder.

    Simms is a fucking bullshitter that feast off of retired onion pickers in the greater MA region.

    DOn't make me dig up that Simms interview and post it here for general perusal.:nono: :nono: :laughing:
