    This man definitely is much better than Schmeling and Sharkey and perfectly able to be competitive and even defeat Joe Walcott

    I wouldn't fancy Moorer chances against Schmeling from first Louis fight. He wasn't a defensive wizard and Max hit extremely hard for his size. Max would outbox Moorer and it'd lead to a late stoppage.

    This thread really revealed a lot of odd opinions, truth be told I think MM butchers everyone on Louis’s roster of scalps bar Rocky even then I’m uncertain.

    He's a whopping one inch taller, had 2 inches reach advantage and fought half of his career inside LHW limit. He's not bigger and he's not more powerful than Schmeling.
    More skilled? I also disagree - Max was better counter puncher and was better defensively. On top of that, he was smarter fighter.

    So it's perfectly when you punch someone low and follow up by punch to the chin right? Come on, the reason why Sharkey was stopped was low blow.

    I just posted facts - Moorer isn't bigger or more powerful. You love talking about "natural size" and Moorer wasn't bigger "naturally" than Max.

    He was... Moorer was perfectly a full sized modern cruiser and schmeling a 188 pounder. Moorer did hit harder than schmeling and i think that there is no debate about it .

    Sharkey was stopped because he was hit low.

    Moorer fought half of his career inside LHW limit...
    Which durable HW did Moorer stop? Because Schmeling has quite a few on his KO list.
