    first time seeing you post, and my opinion is that you don't know ****... that's about how screwed up your logic is.

    Would you judge Mike McCallum on his fight with Roy Jones, or Roy Jones on his fight with Hopkins last night, Nigel Benn on his second fight with Steve Collins, Eric Morales on his third fight with Manny, Julio Chavez on his fight with Tszyu etc... you see my point?

    Iv always like Moore but he found his level some time ago and the wear and tear of his fairly long career is taking its toll. He spent far too long at 54 and i never understood why he never moved up sooner.

    With all due respect to Jamie he was never in that league or even remotely near it. The word legend in used too often, he was a very good European level fighter who bought balls and an iron will to the table but was just not good enough to go beyond European level, there is absolutely no shame in that at all. He is i suppose a legend to us hardcore boxing fans from the UK but nowhere else. I hope he can make enough money to pay his mortgage and be ok for money, thats why he will be back.

    The weight screwed him. Real shame. Leading up to the Rhodes fight he was looking world level to me. But he wasn't right in the Rhodes fight.

    The point I was making was that you don't judge a fighter on one bad night...

    Nah he's never looked world class to me. Not even fringe. Remember his wars with Micheal Jones? Jones was a decent box puncher and Moore struggled with him heavily. Il be honest though i was very surprised to see what he did to Priccrilo as before that i didnt even think he was EBU level.

    You guys need to calm down. I made a comment that Jamie Moore looked like **** in this fight and i get the whole British Army attacking me, lol wtf?

    So are you saying he didn't look like ****? Cause he sure as hell wasn't impressive, i'll tell you that....

    I have no doubts that Jamie is more than likely a British boxing legend and famed fighter as you guys claim....I have no doubt that Jamie Moore might have been a top notch fighter at one point in his career, and he seems like a real nice kid too.

    I only said he looked like **** in this fight, was I wrong? All you guys took my comment out of context.

    Im sure Jamie was a great boxer at one point as all you claim, but this was the first time viewing him and I just thought what came to my mind when watching that fight vs. that Russian last night.

    No, you didn't. You claimed that "he's ****". He is not '****', not by a long shot, so yes, you were wrong. Yes, he had a bad night, pretty much everyone has acknowledged that. A bad night could be a result of many factors - did he over train, did he feel ill, have the many battles caught up with him, or did he just have one of those nights? There could be a million reasons why he didn't perform, but to say that he is **** based on seeing only one performance, which was arguably his worst for a long time, was out of order.

    That's not what you said, is it? You disrespected a fighter based on the one and only time you've seen him. You can't start back pedalling now.....
