His ko’s of Pinklon Thomas, Tyrell Biggs, Holmes (Larry had enough to beat an always tough Ray Mercer)were masterpieces of efficient, almost clinical beatdowns...especially vs Biggs.
He was never the same after Cus D’Amato died, that’s when he lost his way.
I like the way he 'raped' Bruno as well. I loved his peek a boo style and movement. I had a former squad leader who was a golden gloves champion that grew up competing with Tyson. He said Mike always cried before his matches and was really scared. Keep in Mike was one of the few people as a kid that I've seen who would have the ability to maul a fully grown man at the age of 12 of 13.
Michael Spinks unfortunately will always be remembered for his loss to Tyson, in brutal fashion. But, Michael was one of the greatest lighthvys ever.
