Mooresy: The Fighter's Fighter is the life story of one of
Britain's most-loved boxers. Not always an angelic teen and a
product of the 'Salford Overspill', Jamie Moore was sucked into the
slipstream of the thrill which came with car theft. At 15, his luck
ran out after a helicopter police chase. Boxing turned out to be
his saviour. Progressing through the amateur ranks, he turned pro
in 1999 aged 20 and went on to become British, Irish, Commonwealth
and European light middleweight champion. Known by many as
'Britain's most exciting fighter' Moore engaged in some epic
battles, and was one half of boxing's Fight of the Year three times
within a five-year period. Four shoulder operations and three brain
scans prompted him to quit in 2010. He was snapped up by Sky Sports
and started training his own stable of champions. Life was good.
That life was almost permanently taken away from him in August
2014, after being shot at five times in Marbella. Despite having a
bullet lodged in his right hip and constant pain to his left leg as
a result of another bullet passing straight through his thigh,
Moore does not dwell on his brush with death.His serene acceptance
of life is inspirational as he remains a husband, proud father,
former champion, trainer - and occasional actor.
