Walcott by ko.Moore was a great lhvy, Walcott was not top ten at heavy, but he is just as clever as Moore, and more durable.
Walcott is the knee jerk pick but at this time, he had a pretty close competitive trilogy with LHW technician Maxim who was able to defend his power shots, stick him with his jab, and make him look bad. Moore compeltely outclassed and destroyed Maxim. Maybe Walcott bests him in a trilogy, Moore certainly would have at least one bad night, but this isn't an easy call.
I think it would be a fascinating, brilliant fight over fifteen. Either one of these guys could put the other one away with one punch. But both of them are masters at controlling the range and action. It would be fascinating to see Moore's solution to Walcott's walkaway, it would be fascinating to see Walcott find ways to lead without getting his head taken off with a counter. Fabulous stuff. I wouldn't be putting any money down on this one. Probably I'd pick Walcott on the forum off the back off his pedigree. No style advantage here. Very close to a 50.50 proposition imo.
Archie was the better pound for pound guy but he did not have Joey M's chin either .. I like Joe w his blazing speed and power to catch Archie and take him out in a sudden KO ..
I love the styles...and it would be a great match up. Moore is better...Walcott is bigger, but very good. I'd pick Walcott.
