    For questions or requests Email at: hanzagod@mail.com
    Archie Moore - Was an American professional boxer and the longest reigning World Light Heavyweight Champion of all time (December 1952 - May 1962). He had one of the longest professional careers in the history of the sport. Nicknamed "The Mongoose", and then "The Old Mongoose" in the latter half of his career, Moore holds the record for the most career knockouts (131) in boxing history. Moore was a highly strategical and defensive boxer, with a great chin and bludgeoning power, he ranks #4 on The Ring's list of "100 greatest punchers of all time". Moore is rated by prominent boxing website BoxRec as the 3rd greatest pound-for-pound boxer of all-time. Moore was also a trainer for a short time after retirement. He trained boxers such as Muhammad Ali, George Foreman and James Tillis.

    I tear up when I watch these guys such as The Old Mongoose. To me they are my super heros. When comics were out i bought boxing magazines and read fights picturing the fights. I see now that the old school fighters had a mentality that isnt around as much nowadays due to the business aspect of things. These warriors were the definition of IMMORTAL GREATNESS. RIP Archie Moore and the rest of the "TITANS" from the Old School, Ezzard Charles, Jersey Joe, George Benton, Carmen Bassilio and many others..

  • @cygnusprime6728

    a few things i find impressive about moore:
    -he is relatively flat footed yet he can pivot of the front foot, shift his weight, shuffle, and slip punches.
    -he is very stocky with thick calf muscles and arms despite being a light heavyweight.
    im starting to think the old school were onto something because nowadays guys will either be skeletons and weight drained or flabby and puffy at the higher weights. they think just adding sheer food/bulk weight or water weight will give them a "size advantage" when in reality that will often just slow you down, give you crappy stamina and make you weak to body shots.

      Ezzard Charles. He beat Moore three times, at the weight, including once by KO. In one of the other fights Charles reputedly won nearly every round. Moore tried and kept coming back but Charles was too good. Charles being a convincing 3 - 0 against Moore is one of the reasons why many experts rate him as the greatest light heavyweight, despite not having been champion (he couldn't get a title shot).
