    Moore would never have beaten Louis and maybe Holy wouldn`t have either but Max v Holy would have been a classic.

    At his prime,, Max was a better boxer than Evander, Max would dominate Archie

    Def laughing at those who think Archie would be dominated. Archie when his record is examined is one of the best HW to take the ring. Prime Archie not Archie that fought Ali beats Schmeling. Doesn’t dominate him but he wins imo. I don’t think Archie beats Joe I personally think styles make fights and he had an exceptional night against one of TBE and tends to be over rated.

    What do you see in Schmeling’s style and skill set that makes you feel he would batter Qawi?

    Schmeling seems to have become seriously overrated as a h2h fighter imo. Seems like people give him maximum credit for the first Louis fight and ignore all his losses and underwhelming performances. Cruiser Holy beats him up. Moore could make for an interesting clash of styles.

    Yes, but Max wouldn`t be fighting Holy at cruiser, unless that was your point. What weight was Max when he fought?

    I feel Moore would have given Holy a great fight at cruiser too.

    He had more savvy than Holy had when he fought Qawi, Holy used to get caught too much.
