	After the loss, Moorer took a three year break from the ring: his first significant time away from the sport since his youth. During that time, his grandfather unsuccessfully attempted to sue him for a percentage of past earnings, he began drinking heavily, and ballooned to 270 pounds. Deciding he wanted to make a comeback, he quit drinking completely. He returned on November 17, 2000 at 247 pounds and knocked out journeyman [[Lorenzo Boyd]] (30-48) in the fourth round. He gradually lost weight and put together a few wins. He was dominating [[Dale Crowe]] (22-4) on July 27, 2001 before the bout was declared a technical draw on an accidental butt. A few wins later, he was quietly reemerging as a possible player in the division. His gaining momentum ended when [[David Tua]] (40-3) knocked him out in thirty seconds on August 17, 2002 on [[HBO]]. A right hook and left hand behind the ear sent Moorer down and halfway out of the ring. Despite the loss, Moorer continued to fight. He put together three wins against nondescript opposition, but weighed a career high 251 pounds in losing an embarrassing ten-round unanimous decision to [[Eliseo Castillo]] (17-0-1) on July 3, 2004. He returned, likely thought to be just as much an opponent as a threat, against [[Vassiliy Jirov]] (33-2) for the vacant [[NABA]] and [[WBC]] Continental Americas Heavyweight Championships on December 9, 2004. Well behind on points, Moorer landed a straight left hand in the ninth round that sent Jirov down and caused the referee to stop the bout. Following the win, Moorer again retired. He began working as a trainer for [[John (JD) Chapman]] in 2005 before he decided to return to fighting in late 2006. He won five consecutive bouts and ended his 20-year professional career with a first-round knockout against [[Shelby Gross]] (16-3). His final record was 52-4-1 (40 KOs). In 2009, he began working as assistant trainer with Freddie Roach at the Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, California.
