    I think Frazier beats him easier than Marciano.....Frazier was faster and sharper than the Rock and I think Frazier beats him from post to pillar until the ref saves him or counts him out

    Frazier is another guy, like Tyson, that would be hell on light heavyweights. He wouldn't get them out of there as early or explosively as Tyson but he'd sure do some damage before he did.

    I do think Moore could likely drop Frazier though.

    I don't think he could, tho it's not impossible.

    Moore was a puncher with pin point accuracy and a master counter puncher. I can see a counter right hand over Fraizer's left hook dropping him.

    I think Moore can probably catch Joe cold in the 1st or 2nd. Joe loved the bob and Archie loved to uppercut as his opponents bent at the waist. I would in fact put money that archie drops him early.

    Not gonna stop Joe from taking years off his life though.
