if srr would have beaten maxim and stayed at light heavyweight?

The answer is Archie Moore.

 

Robinson was too small to stay at light heavyweight.

Fighting Maxim was the best chance he had at winning a light heavyweight title and came up short.

 

it would be a one-shot deal.

SRR would be defending the 160 title afterwards.

 

I don't think it'd add much. I'm personally astonished just as much as if he had officially won. He was winning by a big margin.

 

Archie Moore was Maxim's next fight. Based on this we can assume that he'd been next for Robinson too.

 

Robinson and Moore sat down to talk about a fight when Robinson came back from retirement. Moore wanted 50%, Robinson offered 30%, Moore asked his wife to get his coat and walked away

 

Moore / Charles grade fighters were too big for SRR.

They had equal skills, more power, and were bigger fighters.

 

Ray would've fought Moore, and been knocked out in the ninth round.

 

I agree hed have lost to Moore.Also to Harold Johnson,IMO underrated and better than Maxim.

 

I doubt he would have fought Archie Moore.
Probably would have fought Maxim again, and then Danny Nardico , maybe a 7th fight with LaMotta, perhaps Bobo Olson. 3rd match with Turpin.

He'd be more likely to take on Marciano for the heavyweight championship than give Moore a shot at his new title, I would imagine.

 

I read somewhere that if Robinson had won, that he was heading for a bout with Marciano, amazing if that were true.
