I remember my Dad being so disappointed paying to see this fight on Pay per view, and it lasted only minutes. Everyone thought it would be the fight of the century. However Spinks turned out to be no match when he went against Iron Mike💪💖

I barely remember this fight.
I think Tyson was going through a lot of stuff to do with his wife at the time. Spinks is no Buster Douglas, the guy was seriously good. Most experts say had Spinks been a split second faster with that right hand, after the first knockdown or Tyson just a bit slower at slipping it, this would have been a different fight.
The truth is Spinks was scared sh*tless and mentally already lost the fight. He never boxed again after this fight.
@MPA2000 wow I wasn't aware of that info about Spinks. Thanks for letting me know. The fight game is half mental half skill. So you're right on point with this statement.
