CHARLES beat MOORE 3 out of 3 at light heavyweight
[/quote]
True, Charles beat Moore 3 times, but a lot of guys dodged Moore and he did not get a title shot until he was 39 yrs. old. Moore's record shows that he beat a lot of top ten guys and future hall of famers. Joey Maxim, Nino Valdez, Harold Johnson, Yvon Durrelle, Jimmy Bivins, Teddy Yarosz to name a few. He retired in 1963 with a win over Mike DiBiase at the age of 50. He lost to Cassius Clay at age 49 and retired with an overall record of 183-24-10 with 131 KO's. He fought from 1936 until 1963. Not many guys today have that kind of longevity.
