Same with me. Charles definitely has to be above - and I don't think you can argue Moore over B. Leonard, who was brilliantly dominant in a tough...
I know Duran has the Leonard win. And I know he was more consistent (weaker opposition and more comfortable circumstances). But I can't believe I...
Here is the same list, but for Moore - all rated at some point: Sammy Slaughter Ron Richards (x2) Johnny Romero Jack Chase (x4) Nate Bolden (x2)...
Just thought I'd post this comparison. Fighters beaten by Duran who were at some point rated in The RING's annual top ten (Hall of Famers in...
I dislike the term 'wade in.' Moore's boxing skills were top class, including his jab. There is a serious chance of Langford being outboxed.
The initial instinct is Langford. But let's not forget Moore survived such hellish punchers at Curtis Sheppard and Bob Satterfield. It is not...
There's too much to say, I'd be there all night... ... But I think I've figured out the main component of Moore's greatness. His spirit. I...
Uh oh, thread idea...

Old boxers are hard to gauge. On the one hand I give them credit for fighting more often in rougher times, yet on the other, these less regulated...
Good points, good points... ... As opposition (I believe Langford was greater, but not by many spaces at all) I will come back and say: - Moore...
I see a lot of parallels between these two. I'm interested in hearing peoples' views on why Langford was greater - I don't think I've ever seen...
I know they're a bit obvious, but I don't think you can beat the first Moore-Durelle fight for a survival clinic, and then the rematch for an...
Paul Berlenbach might be another addition. Remove Marciano maybe? Not because he wasn't a very good body puncher.
