    They were both ringside for the festivities of Walcott vs Marciano 1. What was Robinson thinking as he watched the fight? What was Moore thinking?

    I don’t know but I assume Archie Moore thought he might win the heavyweight championship one day.

    You think Robinson was thinking of moving to heavyweight to challenge the winner?
