Certainly compares to Phoneutria species, though not in my usual geographical area . There are other species not dissimilar, Cupiennius, for example which can even have the red chelicerae as Phoneutria.
I'm not sure how many species there are exactly, but all are similar in appearance and it would take an expert in this particular field to get it to an exact species.
They are beautiful and impressive spiders.

Hi Jason, I've occasionally visited this site but usually forget it's here . It's a bit quiet on the spider front on both at the moment!

The cross was a working link - you should have been able to have seen the image. The image has been re-added now, so there should be no problems.
