The Jamie Moore Story

Post by black panther »




One of my favorite British fighters, I Became a huge fan of Moore after he took the Michael Jones fight on late notice and went on to be in so many amazing fights.

I was gutted that I never got to see him fight in the flesh - I was due to see him fight Vincent Vuma but I think injury forced him out and he was replaced by Mark Thompson.

A career full of highs, lows and drama and I felt he definitely had the potential to fight for a world title. But the wars and weight making seem to catch up with him and for me he seemed a shell of himself when he lost to Ryan Rhodes just when he had the European title and was on the cusp of a world title shot.

Brilliant, exciting fighter and by all accounts a brilliant, down to earth bloke too. Hope you enjoy the little documentary on him I just found.

5½ years later and I finally got around to watching it :lol:

Enjoyable documentary and did a good job at covering as much as possible in the time frame.

Some nice contributions from Ricky Hatton, Kerry Kayes, Moore's old amateur trainer & Ryan Rhodes

Moore's British light middleweight title fight against Matthew Macklin was an absolute classic ! :box:

I was lucky enough to go to his British title defence against David Walker, although it wasn't the result we were hoping for.

Moore had a stellar career and a fantastic run as British champion :salut:
