Although often overshadowed by his more flamboyant older brother Leon, Michael Spinks was a consummate professional who had one of the greatest careers in boxing history. Both brothers overcame immense trials and tribulations while growing up in a St Louis ghetto to win gold medals at the 1976 Olympic Games.
While Leon defeated Muhammad Ali in his eighth pro fight before going into a headline-making freefall, Michael defended the light heavyweight crown 10 times and became the first titlist in that division to win the world heavyweight championship when he defeated Larry Holmes.
This is a story of overcoming anguish, betrayal, and heartbreak. Above all else, Michael Spinks is living proof that sometimes nice guys do finish first.
