Damn I didnt expect all this. Thanks for the heads up, I think I've already greened you for that Dirrell Abarham fight.
thanks again

p.s: on a side note Moore-Ali looks a lot like the Toney-Robinson fight

Moore - Durelle I is a must watch. One of the greatest fights ever.

Thanks for this as well. What kind of fighter do you think Ali would of been if he stayed with Moore?

you can also find Nunn fights on the same site those other files come from, just no career thread on nunn yet, thus no simple copy/paste job for me.

I doubt he would have been much different. You couldn't really teach Ali anything, he did it his own way, although to some extent the likes of Willie Pastrano and Ralph Dupas did influence him with their footwork. With Moore, he would have been taught to punch with more power and perhaps would have fought in a more flat-footed stance. A lot of the time Ali put very little behind his punches while Moore made every punch count.
