Man that is a flash from the past 70s past!.... dude stood toe to toe twice(30 rounds total) with Ali winning one of the bouts.

RIP Leon Spinks. Will always remember watching you fight your way to the gold medal light heavyweight in boxing at the 1976 Summer Olympics.

I always remember his toothless grin early on. Had no idea he is was a Marine.
RIP. Thanks for your service.

Semper Fi bro and RIP sir. Several months back I had heard he was ill but don’t recall his problems.

He was a big part of the glory days of prize fighting. Those glory days are gone, thanks Don King!
