Things started well for former MW champ Cory Spinks when an uppercut to open the fight gave defending WBC MW champ Gennady Golovkin a terrible gash over 1 of his eyes. Cory went for broke & then missed with a big overhand left only to be on the receiving end of a GGG counter hook which ended matters @ 2:03 of round 1.
It was GGG's 2nd title defense & he's now 18-0.
Spinks drops to 10-2-1 @ 160, his only other MW loss due to cuts when he lost his WBA MW belt in 2010.
