    At heavyweight. The best Schmeling fights the best HW version of Archie Moore. Who wins and how?

    I will probably be in the minority (and am comfortable with that) and take a Schmeling decision here. I think he would be able to control the range and make Moore force the fight. Schmeling carefully picks his moments on his way to a 9-6 decision

    Max had the tools to beat Archie. He was a very intrlligent, well-trained boxer/puncher. Max by late round stoppage.

    I don't know if he'd stop Moore, but it's possible I guess.

    Whoever wins, its by a hair's width UD/MD/SD and will probably be disputed forever

    I actually see Schmeling as being half a class above Moore!

    I think that he was better than Walcott and Charles as well.

    Walcott seemed to do better against Louis, however
