Robinson is the superior boxer by far and Archies style is not a good one to defeat Sugar! Archie fought at a lighter weight in his beginning years and was very mobil but at 175 he became a shuffle stepper and liked to work at a steady pace. Ray was a very solid 160 once he got there and fought at middleweight the majority of his career with many prime years at that weight!
I love Archie Moore but Sugar was the extreme when it came to defeating styles and Sugars style would be very difficult for Archie. To fast, with power!
Ray.

Robinson would win a decision unless he fought in riduclously hot weather like against maxim

AT 175?! Ray would get a beating from Archie, and probably knew it too, which is why he suggested the whole purse thing.
