    I think Burley was prime '43 - '44 -- lost to Holman Williams in summer '45 and then look to slide in '46 ( fell out of the Ring Rankings).

    I think Moore met the best possible Burley - but no excuse Moore had 65 fights under his belt by then ( but LOL by Mongoose standards he was still young).

      Listons gonna be too much for Moore. I know it sort of takes away from Rocky by saying Liston blows him out in under 4, but I couldn't see it going any other way. Just a style mad for Liston. Moore stands in front of him, yeah he's a craftier inside fighter - but you don't stand in front of Liston.
