    He looks excellent against Oakland Billy - 1946.

    Probably, yes.

    We've discussed a bit Moore's prime with PP:

    Rex Tickard,like what you said about Johnson,who I think was a great,underrated fighter.Although beaten a few times by Moore,also a great fighter{but recognised as such}I believe at the time you refer to,he would,if they had fought,have beaten Archie convincingly at either weight.Hypothetical,but IMO if hed been around today the only reason he wouldnt be undisputed champion would be that the others refused to fight him.
