Message: [QUOTE="Crusty, post: 403030, member: 2265"] Very sad day - RIP Champ. Back in the fifties Friday Night Fights was the big TV sports show (along with wrestling if that is a sport). I remember seeing Yvon Durelle knocking Archie Moore down three times in the first round (no 3 knockdown rule in Montreal) and then Moore came back to knock Durelle out in the 11th round to retain his LHW chanpionship. One of the greatest fights of all time. Boxing was huge back then. Carmen was just as tough as Archie. [/QUOTE]
