    I actually think Archie is underrated nowadays. Some scrub comes up, has 20 fights, and people are declaring him an ATG. They forget what a skilled craftsman this guy was. He would chew up and spit out any of today's light heavies. 123 ko's against the top competition of the day. :yaay

    Yeah guys like Lomo and Usyk have fought less than a month of Moore's fights.....even Floyd with 50 fights is a child compared to Moore.

    What a bad@ss.

    And was remarkably well preserved in his 80's... after that insane career.
