Cory Spinks Ignored By Showtime

On the undercard of Agbeko-Perez, 31 year old IBF light middleweight champion Cory Spinks will defend his belt against Mexican Carlos Molina.

26 year old Molina (17-4-1, 5 KOs) is ranked 14 by the IBF and has notched up 9 straight victories since 2008. Molina has lost to Mike Alvardo by majority decision and remains the only guy that has drawn against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., before losing their rematch.

Spinks (37-5, 11 KOs) is hoping to use his ring experience against Molina on Saturday. Spinks has been in the ring with many big modern names such as Zab Judah, Ricardo Mayorga and Jermain Taylor.

The fight will not be televised by Showtime who have shown more interest in DaVarryl Williamson vs. Ray Austin and Antonio DeMarco vs. Jose Alfaro as their undercard broadcast.

Part of me feels bad for Spinks because he is a veteran who has worked his way up into his position and deserves to be in a televised bout.

The other part of me sees Spinks as an incredibly dull fighter who puts me to sleep in most of his fights, and would rather see other hungry fighters get a chance on television.

In defense of my first part, his last fight on TV was pretty decent by way of action.
