Moore beat. Sheppard Bivins x3 King x4 Rademacher Besmanoff x2 Norkus Whitehurst x2 Dunlap Valdes x2 Baker Rischer Slade Lavorante Kalfbell Henry Lovell Among others ,he sure had trouble with those heavies.atsch
I like Jeffries, but Arch may be able to pull this one off. I can see it either way. My initial reaction to the thread was "Jeffries", but after some thought I might lean towards the genius of Moore to prevail in an upset. But one false move or lapse in concentration and he's dead.
I have a feeling that valdes and bivins would be among jeffries best wins and resume wise there isn't much between them truth be told. However in a hw battle of attrition between these two I have to favour james.
tough fight to pick,.... Archie on his almost 50 strait run on way Marciano would be to deep in experience vs the 20+ odd total of fights for Jeff but Jim Jeff was as strong as the come and should be a force to reckon with for at least 15 rds, would Archie wear? Would Jeffires survive the pot-shot bombs and craftiness of the mongoose....a tough pick and as strong as Jeffires was did Moore hit harder?
I love ol' Archie and all (no homo)...but could it be possible that we're underrating Big Jeff a little bit here..kind of like the way Dempsey is insamely underrated in this same forum?
