Former world champion boxer Michael Spinks opened up about his career and thoughts on his contemporaries in the ring. Spinks, celebrated for his achievements as a light heavyweight stepping up to win a heavyweight title, admitted he doesn't think a rematch against Mike Tyson would have ended any differently, acknowledging Tyson's formidable power. Spinks also addressed the controversy surrounding Evander Holyfield, insinuating Holyfield had used steroids, comparable to substances Tyson reportedly used.
