    Moore vs 1982 Larry Holmes and Moore vs 1992 Larry Holmes. Could Moore overcome Holmes?

    It was a side argument to some other match but I seem to recall talk of Moore against Holmes getting heated here not too far back. Will be interesting reading.

    I don’t know that Holmes has any realistic shot at winning in his 1992 iteration but he’d be a relatively large favourite in his prime IMO. Moore did beat a slew of Heavies though so perhaps he could pull it off.
