And Pavlik sure whooped 43 yr old Bernard Hopkins butt didn't he?
For some fighters age means everything (Roy Jones) for others Hopkins, Archie Moore it doesn't.
Skilled, cagey, defensive fighters who know how to rope-a-dope have longer careers than fighters relying on their reflexes.
By the way old, past-it, Archie Moore managed to regain the light-heavyweight crown after losing to Marciano. Archie Moore and Bernard Hopkins have a lot in common.
Oh, and to answer the question I think it would be a great match-up UNLESS Holyfield insisted on trading with Marciano, in which case he would be brutally knocked out.
