The counter argument to moore having a better resume is that spinks only got knocked out by a man that would have also knocked archie moore the **** out. While many of archie moores losses are to fighters that are lesser than spinks. I also believe that archie got knocked out in 1 round by a nobody.
With a name like 'brownpimp88', why should I even take you seriously? The first letter of your name isn't even capitalized!
Who cares about the name, what makes manassa such a leigt name. Archie Moore was the De La Hoya of his era, losing the most important fights. Name the 5 best p4p fighters archie fought and almost all of them beat him.
Manassa is a place name where my favourite boxer (at the time of joining) was born. Yours is just embarrassing. Look at Moore's record this way; his record was 11-5 against top thirty light heavyweights. Ezzard Charles, probably the best of all time, beat him three times (narrowly), and if you take that those fights off the list you are left with 11-2 incase you can't work it out.
Marvin Johnson can be listed as a top 30 light heavyweight, i know ring have him in thier top 20. My theory is that if burley and other lesser fighters can beat moore, why cant spinks. So far your only reason is that hes too tricky and spinks doesnt have enough experience, haha. Spinks was able to beat 3 top 30 light heavyweights within his first 20 fights, yet 32 fights isnt long enough to be a challenge for moore, give me a break.
No matter how many times I tell you Moore wasn't in his prime against Burley, it won't get through to you, will it? I may as well surrender now then. I am dealing with a lack of comprehension that even I cannot comprehend; from both you and Mr. Magoo.
Yeah he wasnt exactly that green either. Why dont u name the 5 best p4p fighters that archie moore fought?
Why, because it suits your argument? No thanks. Some of the best pound-for-pound fighters Moore fought were heavyweights, or they were the best light heavyweight ever, or they caught him while he was still developing. I'll say this though; the best light heavyweight Moore beat was better than any that Spinks beat, and he was victorious in four of five fights. Because he actually fought people more than once. It amazes me how you think Spinks is untouchable because he was unbeaten until his last fight. I mean, he never faced anywhere near the same adversity as Moore; not in opponents, not in circumstances.
dwight qawi or eddie could have beaten harold johnson, dont try and make it sound like he's untouchable. Larry Holmes is better than any heavyweight that moore ever beat, even if larry was a few years past his peak. Archie moore was 28 when he lost to burley, a middleweight, thats hardly a green moore, he was a 9 year pro by that time, lol.
I just typed out a fairly long post, but then deleted it all. I've decided I won't waste my time explaining things to you - not because I can't, but because it will never enter your extremely robust cranium. You will never realize or accept the differences in circumstances between Spinks and Moore; you'll just keep uttering the same, boring old rubbish. "If Burley can beat him..." "Spinks never lost until Tyson." Yawn :dead
