    1. As many have pointed out, Moore fought and beat top heavyweights taller and heavier than Chuvalo. Size would not be the big factor in my judgement.

    2. This would be a very tough fight for Archie, but I judge he would be able to stand up to Chuvalo's pressure and win the decision, at least if Archie were in the form he showed in the fifties. In the real world, after 1960 or so, perhaps Chuvalo could wear him down, especially in a 15 round bout.

    3. You know, I would have loved to have seen this one.
