I should of ecplained I was mainly thinking of Moore. The guys he has beaten compared to the guys Witter and Woods have beaten (apart from Johnson for Woods) have been pretty much on the same level as the guys Moores beaten in my opinion.

 

IMHO Moore would get moved up if he beat a decent world class opponent (not sure about Rhodes TBH) but until then the gulf at the levels these guys are fighting at is just too great to put him above Woods or Witter (unless they lose at Euro level in the meantime).

In addition to that you can very easily argue that Woods last fight before Cloud (the eliminator against Muriqi) was a better win than anything that Moore and especially Brook/ Cleverly have on their records.

 

By the way, how do you guys see Moore vs Martinez going anyway?

 

I really like Martinez, I think he'd stop Moore. Stylewise I think Cintron would suit Moore better than Martinez.

 

What do you think Maritinez has that Moore don't? i personally reckon Moore has a great chance, either way it will be a great fight.

 

Better movement and boxing skills. I don't think Moore is a non-hoper but I think Martinez will win, its a big step up for Moore.

 

I'll have to check Martinez out on Youtube but does he look stronger or more powerful than Moore does? because to me Moore has been looking like a monster recently.

 

I don't think he's as big as Moore, but Cintron is big at the weight and Martinez handled him pretty well.

 

Yeah but Cintron ain't as big as Moore and don't have a he's mental toughness either.

 

Its not a body building competition....;O)

 

I know that, but it can make a big difference in a fight. In this case i think it would make a big defference as even though i ain;t seen Martinez fight, I'm assuming he ain't a stick and move boxer who relies mostly on speed and reflexes, rather judging by the fact he's from latin descent and what I've heard of him he'll probably be more of a pressure type fighter? if I'm wrong correct me. If that is the case and Moore is stronger and more powerful than him then i would excpect Moore to probably have enough to win.... despite having slighly better movement and defence.

 

He's good all round fighter who has beaten better men than Moore and done it well. Moore is totally unproven at this level.

Thats not to say he can't win but this isn't going to be a fight he can bull his way though, he'll need something extra.

 

Yeah Martinez is a big step up from Dzuman - who was a bit of a typical negative, tomato can first defence.

In fairness, Moore chewed him up as best he could - but was a pointless fight IMO, other than to put a few quid in the bank.

 

It sounds like a great fight though.
