    im looking forwar to brook jennings but rhodes moore is not as intriguing, rhodes doesnt bring anything to worry moore and why is moore not fighting higher level opposition already its very frustrating even from a non fans perspective

    You're the only person I've heard who is unhappy about it. Light middle is a very poor weight class right now and aside from the belt holders, there isn't much for Moore to choose from. Moore fighting Rhodes looks set to be a WBC eliminator as they are both ranked high so I can't wait.

    I don't see why people say this. There is a lot of good contenders in the division but no unbeatable fighters. Its a lot like light welter weight, without as much depth. Bradley, Holt, Torres, Urango, Khan, Maidana, Ortiz all good fighters but they are all beatable.

    Light Middle has: Angulo, Cintron, Spinks, Martinez, Moore, Dzinziruk, Alcine, Mora and possibly Williams again. They aren't all world beaters but they are all on the same level.

    I don't rate any of the belt holders very high and Williams is a middle right now otherwise he'll destroy all of them.

    Nah Ben, LHL's right. LMW is a deep division but with no stand out guy at the top. That means all the guys are on the same level and could beat any of the others.

    I know that, but none of them look like future super stars of the future do they?

    Moore Rhodes is the big one for me, in what is a mega six weeks.

    Mainly because Moore is from my neck of the woods. I'm hoping to persuade some 'casual fan' mates to attend.

    I really like Brook too, so that's one I'm looking forward to.

    I forsee a battering for Rhodes :yep

    Desperate for this to be a WBC Eliminator......I reckon Martinez-Moore would be a helluva fight.

    Looking good for October. A few cross-roads fights there and hopefully see that our most promising fighters have it in then to move up.
