    I agree but that would most probably mean going to Germany and unless he knocked out Dzinzurok the chances of getting the decision there is about as much likely as me shagging all of Girls aloud in the same night then going home to find the Sugababes lining up for me.

    I am delighted for Moorsey,That was a great win.
    The Body shots were the key, and the performance was very impressive.
    Time to be looking at a World Title shot for sure, Moore was looking great last night and working with Kerry Kayes has obviously given him a lift.
    Well Done Mooresy, Bring on Vernon Forrest:happy:happy:happy

    i'm a little dubious about hearns at number 7 as well considering he's only fought a 10-rounder once.

    howabout moore vs duddy in a final eliminator in Manchester or Dublin

    Yeah, Hearns is another who doesn't deserve his ranking.

    Moore v Duddy would be a massive event but Moore is too good for Duddy.

    The fight I'd like to see is Rhodes-Moore (assuming Rhodes beats Small).

    Those rankings are about as illogical as the current WBO 130lb ones :patsch

    On Mooresy, I would stick him in with any of those and at worst, he would be a live underdog - favourite against the majority.

    Problem is, getting people to fight him has been hard enough, him beating up a durable, respected Italian is hardly going to help, is it?

    Not sure what the future holds for him....... hopefully a title shot in the near future but I wouldn't be too optimistic. Could be another Froch situation on the horizon, where even as the #1 contender took ages to get a fight, then after winning it, found the mando trying to worm out of the fight!

    He deserves a title shot now or at least be in a big fight in the states.If big names can be found for Khan and Jennings to fight im sure they can for moore.

    I have said for the last two years that Jamie is world class.... He needs to build on this one immediately.

    The light middle division is no where near as deep as it used to be a couple of years back. If anyone can make a case for Chavez Jnr or Duddy beating Jamie, i'll put my missus on e-bay. The WBC are bent as ****, if this is the best ratings they can come up with. Personally i'd like to see Jamie chase Forrest. Beat the man and become the man in a division with little in terms of majorly dangerous opposition. Forrest is clearly the best around but anyone who can go 1-1 with Sergio Mora is going to struggle with Jamie Moore.

    First of all I am very privileged to address one of the most likeable and entertaining fighters in the UK. I did not get to watch it as I am abroad at the moment but have read about the performance. Well done for winning the European title in style. It sounds a bit like Lloyd Honeyghan's win against Rosi for the European title in the 80's. Good luck with getting a world title shot.

    Best regards

    I agree with this mostly, but I think in terms of exposure it'd be good for Moore to fight Chavez or Duddy, as they're both bigger names than their talent deserves, and Jamie should have the beating of them both.

    Fantastic performance last night though, and on that showing there's really no-one in the division that Moore should be afraid of facing.
