Jamie Moore v Andrew Facey - British Title Fight! - Page 2

Just a Fan · 10-26-2007, 10:09 AM

The Lads mate his weight is never the same in his last fight he was 140 LW previous fight to that was 147 WW and has fought has high as 154 LM against Karl Taylor. So I am not sure if he has decided what weight to fight at yet, but I believe from watching him fight he had his best two victories over Bradley Pryce & [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]at 147 and above. Just my opinion tho thanks for saying hi.

He's decided to fight at 140, he fought at 147 and 154 because no bugger would fight him at 140. He's ranked in the top 15 by the WBC at 140. Will he weigh 140lbs tonight, I doubt it, as its a nothing fight, unless its a title fight fighters are often a few lbs over their weight.
I reckon he'll be around 145-147. His intention is though to fight at light welterweight.
Ali took the fight at 4 days notice against Ajose, and put up a spirited performance, alas Ajose had too much for ALi that night.

The Lads I agree with your points I was just saying I think he looks better at WW. In his last 8 or 9 fights he has fought I beleive only once at 140 for the commonwealth title against Gary Reid. This just shows you how shite the ranking systems are and why I take no notice of them anymore if by beating Gary Reid in your only fight at 140 in 3-4 years gets you in the top 10 well what can I say. Best Regards Craig

if olusegun wins a world title, do we get to make him honoury british??

i really do hope this is the last domestic level fight jamie moore has because he deserves so much more.

the average manc doesn't have a clue who he is! say what you want about hennessey, but he seems to build up local followings better than maloney does (e.g. carl froch)

fighting facey is never easy though, and moore will have to work hard to secure a comfortable but competitive UD.

And as for Ali I rate him very highly very gifted boxer.

Rooq I think Jamie wins inside 6 tonight and hopefully on to beat EBU champ Zaurbek Baysangurov which will be no easy fight as the man can punch and has been 12 rounds with huge punching Marco Antonio Rubio. But all the best to one of the most entertaining boxers in the UK at the present time.

i do hope you're right. jamie moore is one of my fave brit boxers right now!

In the Manchester Evening News it was reported that if Moore wins both these fights, he'll hopefully shoot up the WBC rankings and maloney will then be looking to get the world title shot. i don't know how he'd do against someone as skillful as forrest but it'd be good for him to get the shot!

Hi mate. Although his opponents have been welterweights / light middle Ajose has often come in between 143-147 lbs. For a non title fight thats perfectly acceptable as a light welter (as crazy as it may seem). Very rare would you get a light welter being bang on 140 for just a non title "nothing" fight. Im not even sure he'll have weighed in the day before for a few of them, may have weighed in on fight night. Im sure "OLU" who posts here and has closer connections than I do to Ajose will correct us and set the record straight.

As an example Mark Thompson, for his last fight, weighed 159lbs, infact Mark has never weighed 147lbs... and yet he was going to fight Kevin Mcintyre in a welterweight eliminator for the british title.
Tonight he fights for a CA title, Im sure he'll be bang on 147.

Presumably Ajose is defending his commonwealth title tongiht (as the opponent is canadian) so he'll be 140 again.

Jamie Moore wins - 11th round stoppage!

maka · 10-26-2007, 06:40 PM

good fight.
tougher than moore thought it was goin to be i think, he faced a different facey from the last time..... but as moore said himself he (moore) was very rusty........ and we should see him back on form in his next fight.

good shots to force the stoppage.

Nah, it was the same one. Exactly the same name, and face(ey).
It was a good fight, but Moore is no world beater. For years now we've been hearing how he plans to move up in class, but everytime I ever see him he never looks that special.

Compared to last time they fought, he didn't look too hot. I'm not saying he isn't a good fighter, he's just not world class. I would actualy say he's past his best.

Mark55 · 10-26-2007, 07:49 PM

Got to agree regarding Jamie Moore's pedigree, he's all heart and soul and a real streetfighter type of scrapper, but as for boxing at the very top level I'd think he'd be found out. At that level you need a lot more ability to go with that fighters heart, i don't see that in the lad.
