Heavyweight title fight between undisputed champion Mike Tyson and lineal champ Michael Spinks. Que to 1 minute and 40 seconds for introduction of Trump who hosted the fight at Trump Plaza. Also, see how bad Muhammed Ali looked, who had only retired five years previously.

Five minute introduction; 90 second fight.

Spinks never had a chance.

Literally walked in just as it ended, thinking we got there in time. No refund either.

What a waste of $50, big bucks back then.

Man did Spinks look nervous in the pre-fight. He was mentally beaten before the fight even began.

Sounds like a Trump vs. Cruz debate. How many rematches did Tyson give Spinks? One, if any. Probably none. Yet 90-second Cruz wants endless rematches after getting KO’d ten times. Glutton for punishment. Must be another one of those kinky things Cruz gets off on.

Ali is a tragic example of the brutality of boxing and the effects it has on the brain........Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy watching classic boxing but they shouldn’t gloss over Ali’s brain injuries by saying his condition is due to Parkinson’s disease..........

“Also, see how bad Muhammed Ali looked”

Being a POS does that to a person.

Spinks knew he couldn’t win. He wasn’t going to take a real beating. He was much the smartest Spink’s brothers. I wish him well.
