Jamie Moore Injury Update By Media Report (August 9, 2012) Doghouse Boxing - Tweet
Jamie Moore Shrugs Of Injury Woes To Play In Charity Footy Tournament This Sunday.
Former
British, Commonwealth and European Light Middleweight Champion Jamie
Moore is the latest in a long line of stars - that includes WBO Light
Heavyweight World Champion Nathan Cleverly, former undisputed Super
Middleweight Champion of the World Joe Calzaghe, soon to be WBO
Lightweight World title challenger Kevin Mitchell, Commonwealth
Middleweight Champ Billy Joe Saunders, former European Bantamweight
Champ Ian ‘Dappa’ Napa, former British Super
Middleweight Champion Paul Smith to name but a very few - to sign up
for this Sunday’s TRAD TKO 3rd Annual Boxers and Celebrities Charity
Football Tournament, in aid of the Indee Rose Trust.
Jamie
virtually dominated the domestic Light Middle scene for most of the
noughties, during which time the big punching southpaw competed in no
less than fourteen championship bouts, winning eleven, ten of which were
by way of stoppage.
Mightily impressive stats, but they still
don’t tell the full story of ‘Magnificent Moore’. Jamie has been in some
real barnstormers, such as the fantastic trilogy of fights with
Liverpool’s Michael Jones, the ‘06 Fight of the Year Battle Royale with
Matthew Macklin and his European Championship campaign, which see him
utterly destroy Michele Piccirillo, in three to lift the crown, then
Roman Dzhuman, in just two rounds on his first defense, before finally
succumbing to Ryan Rhodes in late
‘09.
It’s Jamie’s competitive nature that has drawn him to make
the journey south, from his home in Salford, to take part in the
tournament, even though he is carrying an injury, as he explained
earlier. “Yeah I’m coming down, but I’ve got a problem with my ankle,
I’m going to see how it feels otherwise I’ll have to be a goalkeeper.
Johnny
has done a great job organising the event each year and it shows the
spirit of the boxing community as everyone comes and supports each
other, you know.
There’s a lot of rivalry in Boxing, but it
goes to show how they all come together for a really good cause and give
everyone a really good day out.
It’s got to the point now where everyone certainly knows about it and I’m sure it will continue for years and years to come.”
Jamie then went on to talk about a couple of the teams that will be taking part on Sunday, “I’ve heard Nathan Cleverly is
bringing his own team down this year, I’m sure he’ll have a load of ringers in it.
Smigga’ll
(Paul Smith) be down again, he wasn’t happy his team didn’t make it to
the final last year, so they’ll have been training hard I’m sure.
It’s
what it’s all about we can raise a load of dough for the Indee Rose,
meet the fans and have a great day out at the same time”
