Fred Houpe[edit]

The list of Mr. Spinks' career fights does not include his final professional fight (vs. Mr. Houpe). Perhaps someone can fix this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mk5384 (talk • contribs) 02:23, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Picture from Ali-fight"[edit]

File:Spinks02.jpg This picture is not from Ali-fight, but I don't know, which fight it is, so I can't fix it. Could someone do it? Personally I think text of the other pixture is also wrong (Last fight, KO1 against Tyson? Writer must confuse Leon Spinks to Michael Spinks!)--87.94.226.182 (talk) 18:59, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Trivia" vs. "In popular culture"[edit]

This exact issue has been discussed elsewhere beyond the point of any doubt.[1] The WP:CONSENSUS seems to be that such sections should be labeled/tagged "In popular culture" and cleaned up as the guideline/tag describes. If a consensus to the contrary can be presented, of course, we will have something to discuss. Otherwise, I will restore the "In popular culture" heading and label the section for clean up. (At present, the "section" is one random pop culture reference that should probably simply be removed altogether, but as 2 to 4 editors seem determined to fight about what to label it first, so be it.) - SummerPhD (talk) 20:15, 29 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Record table[edit]

There's a long-standing consensus at MOS:BOXING/RECORD to abbreviate dates in the record table. Something that is employed across thousands of articles. Why should this one be inconsistent with the rest? – ².O.^Boxing 00:10, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
