Jimmy by UD. But I would not be surprised if Archie won a UD, put it that way.

Archie schools Young win a convincing ud 10, 12 or 15 rounds.
Moore was just better and more consistent

Young at his best won Foreman and arguably outboxed Norton with Ali. Moore had never made the same good counteraction to a great HW.

The Old Mongoose would win 2-1 in a series fight against Young all decisions in 10, 12 or 15 round bout.

Moore had savvy; super high IQ; some tricks; and tremendous power. He'd figure out Young and pull this one out.
