Davey Moore was an American boxer whose career spanned 1953–1963. (A second boxer named Davey Moore also competed in the 1980s.) Known as "The Little Giant", Moore stood at only 5 feet and 2 inches. On March 18, 1959 Moore won the World Featherweight Title from Hogan Bassey. Moore held the title for four years and three days, defending it five times before losing it to Cuban Sugar Ramos on March 21, 1963. During the fight with Ramos in Dodgers Stadium Moore was knocked down into the ropes during the 10th round. Moore lost by technical knockout at the end of the 10th round and Ramos took the title. Moore walked back to his dressing room and conducted post-fight interviews, stating his desire to fight Ramos again and regain the title. After reporters left he complained of headaches and fell unconscious. He was taken to White Memorial Hospital where he was diagnosed with inoperable brain damage. Moore never regained consciousness and died as a result of the affliction on March 25, 1963. Moore appeared on the TV show, "To Tell The Truth" (12/04/1961). Even though he was a world champion, he was not recognized by any of the celebrity panelists, including a very young Johnny Carson and Betty White. Three of the four did choose him, including Carson, before the reveal.
