Muhammad Ali and Archie Moore fought a boxing match on November 15, 1962. Ali won the fight through either a knockout, or a technical knockout, in the fourth round.[1][2][3][4][5][note 1]



Notes

  1. ^ Sources differ on whether this was a knockout or a technical knockout. In his New Yorker article American Hunger, and his book King of the World, David Remnick claims it was a knockout with Moore on his back when the fight stopped. But Dennis and Atyeo write in Muhammad Ali:The Glory Years that Moore was on his feet when the referee stopped the fight. Hauser's book Muhammad Ali:His Life and Times mentions that Moore was knocked out, but does not clarify whether or not this was a technical knockout.
