Moore Boxes Three Rounds; Reported to Weigh About 180 SUMMIT, N. J., June 13 UP.— Archie Moore, the world light-heavyweight champion, boxed three rounds with Clint Bacon today in preparation for his June 22 title defense against middleweight king Carl "Bobo" Olson. Moore will go to New York Tuesday to join Olson in signing for the fight at the State Athletic Commission office. Archie plans to box Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, but will take Saturday or Sunday off. He still kept his weight secret, but reportedly scaled "about 180" — five pounds over the light-heavyweight limit today.
