    Archie would occasionally come in the 190-200 range not that it mattered. He beat much bigger men then Shavers. Despite the opposing fighters larger thorax lol in all seriousness why would that one matter?

    Archie was very smart and had natural power that sometimes came out so smooth it appeared effortless - I like Archie to stop Earnie sometime before the 10th round - Earnie had Satterfield type power but slower and less stamina
