Archie Moore vs Yvon Durelle 1958 Fight of the Year December 10, 1958 — one of the wildest championship fights ever witnessed. Light heavyweight champion Archie Moore was dropped three times in the first round by the heavy-handed Canadian challenger. In the fifth, he hit the deck again. But Moore, already a ring veteran in his 40s, showed unbelievable composure and survival instincts. He weathered the storm, steadied himself, and began breaking Durelle down with pinpoint counters and body work.
