I've seen several sourced refer to the fight against Archie Moore as a light heavyweight title fight. Here for example. An editor has been removing that and stating it wasn't a title fight. Can theu please explain? FloridaArmy (talk) 11:52, 6 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
FloridaArmy That was me. Neither the BoxRec entry for Archie or Yolande list it as a title fight. I suspect that if it were (and then it should be directly referenced) it was not one of the major titles listed at WP:NBOX.PRehse (talk) 12:53, 6 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
Contemporary accounts refer to it as the world light heavyweight title and crown. Here for example. Please restore the correct description of the fight unless you can provide a reliable source that conflicts with these accounts. FloridaArmy (talk) 13:25, 6 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
This source goes into some detail about the lead up to the fight and the fight itself. I think you should also remove the notability tag. FloridaArmy (talk) 13:30, 6 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
So which heavyweight title. Was it a significant one?PRehse (talk) 13:38, 6 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
According to the sources above.it was the World Light Heavyweight title. See List of light-heavyweight boxing champions. Why did you add a citation needed tag when I have provided you citations just above? Are you going to remove the notability tag you've added repeatedly? FloridaArmy (talk) 13:55, 6 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
Because the references should be in the article. Now convinced it was for a major world title - even though non of the references are clear on that point.PRehse (talk) 14:14, 6 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
