    Maybe so, but I don't think he would have it all his own way with some of the best at 154, as I feel your not giving the division enough respect and there are some very well schooled and experienced fighters out there and some very hungry one's like Moore aswell.
    I dont think its a great division to be honest but im not saying Jamie will tear it up i just think he is as good as anyone at the weight, i mean without disrepecting these guys Phillips and Forrest are past their sell by dates, Kirkland i like but he's to wild, Angulo is tough and strong but im not sold on him quite yet, Alcine dosnt impress me too much and Martinez and Santos are good but hardly special. Dzinziruk is the only one i havent seen

    Moore has flaws and is never gonna be a p4per i doubt but i think he can at least match these guys

      I to think people well UK people may be getting carried away by him, due to beating washed up Europeans fighters in his home country.

      World Level is a whole different kettle of fish, and I'am not saying he isn't a good fighter, but I feel he may be getting overhyped by some, and I think questions will be answered when he fights some world class fighters.
      For sure. He is a good fighter no doubt, but he does not have the skillset of a top top fighter, and if you dont have that you MUST be exceptional at something like punching,speed,great chin etc, he is a well rounded decent fighter, but deffo not the best 154lbs out there IMO.

      He could be a title holder though. I dont think he will be the main man though.

        I personally dont think he is a world class fighter. He is on that level just above Euro level. I think Williams would beat him clearly.

        He would have a chance at Spinks.

        Forrest i think still has too much for him, if you watch Forrest last fight with Mora, although he lost the first fight through no being in top condition, he gave him a Boxing lesson in the second fight.

        Moore struggled with Andrew Facey. He could/can win a title, but he is deffo not the best 154lbs imo.
        Yeah, I think Spinks is his best shot.

        Shame he doesn't have much popularity or he would be able to get a shot, or at least be put in there with someone like Angulo. Doesn't matter if he wins or not, I'm sure he'd make it entertaining.

          Yeah, he could get at Angulo. I think Angulo would come out on top eventually, but he could win himself a lot of friends with a gutty performance, and Moore does not lack balls, thats one of things he has going for him.

            I feel he may be able to beat a old Verno Phillips, but don't count Forrest out to much, he may be getting on, but does live clean, and as he proved with Mora the second time, when he comes on form he can be very good.

            James Kirkland may be a touch wild, but he is a very good aggresive fighter who could be the hardest puncher in the weight class, if he can get himself sorted and away from all this trouble, there is no dout he can be a belt holder, very raw and natrualy talented.

            Angulo is still learning, but he is very strong, very determinted, and a good chin. Him and Moore would be a true slugfest, and one that I would love to see.

            I don't think Moore could beat Sergei Dzindziruk, who I feel may be the best in the division, very good techinacly , with a great amature pedigree and a great boxing brain.

            And Daniel Santos, on his day he can be brillant, other days medicore. But if he come to win, I think he may walk away with the win against Moore, Santos is coming off a great victory over then unbeaten Joachim Alcine, and he done it in Alcine's country Canada.

            I figure Santos would come to England, as he dosen't really mind fighting abroad, him and Moore could battle for the WBA 154 Title.

            But who knows, I expect Moore will make at least 1 more defence of his EU Title, and then look for World Titles.
