Jamie Moore (born 4 November 1978) is a Britishboxing trainer and formerprofessional boxer who competed from 1999 to 2010. He held theBritish andCommonwealthsuper welterweight titles twice between 2003 and 2007, and theEuropean super welterweight title in 2009
Moore vacated the British title in December 2007 to concentrate on the European title, which he won in March 2009 by stopping former world championMichele Piccirillo in the 3rd round. He announced his retirement on 12 April 2010, upon receiving medical advice from theBritish Boxing Board of Control.
Moore boxed as anamateur before turning professional in October 1999. He won his professional debut against Jamie Rolfe scoring a knockout in the third second of the first round on a card that includedThomas Eade,Robert Hill Daniels,Paul Barnard and journeymanPeter Buckley.
Moore's first opportunity to fight for a title belt, theWBU Intercontinental light middleweight title, was in July 2001. However, Moore suffered the first defeat of his career whenScott Dixon stopped Moore in the fifth of the scheduled twelve rounds to take the title, despite Moore having Dixon down in the third round.
In 2003, Moore foughtLiverpool's Michael Jones for both the British and Commonwealth light middleweight title at theEverton Park Sports Centre in north Liverpool. Moore won this tough fight on points to win his first professional title. Moore retained the British title in subsequent fights and became the first Salford Fighter in over 100 years to win theLonsdale Belt. However, this was not the last that Moore was to see of Liverpudlian Michael Jones, as the pair fought again in November 2004 again at theAltrincham Leisure Centre inGreater Manchester for the British title. This time around, Moore lost after being disqualified in the third round to hitting on the break. The pair again faced each other for a third and final time in July 2005 at the same venue and once again for the British light middleweight title, but this time Moore avenged the defeat he suffered the previous year by stopping Jones in the sixth round. Following this, Moore avenged his loss Thomas Eade in a huge showdown.

Moore's most high-profile fight in his professional career came in September 2006 when he foughtMatthew Macklin in Manchester. Macklin, himself a former Irish middleweight titleholder and at the time being trained at Billy Graham's gym across the city from Moore's gym, helped to increase the rivalry leading up to the fight. Moore defeated Macklin in a "fight of the year"[citation needed] contender to reclaim the British light middleweight title.
Four years after retiring from boxing, Moore was shot twice, once in the hip and in the leg inMarbella on 3 August 2014. Moore, working as a pundit forSky Sports, was in Spain to train old foe Matthew Macklin, who now owned a gym in the Costa del Sol resort. In the aftermath of the incident, Macklin tweeted: "Just to let everyone know Jamie Moore is still in hospital but he's OK. He was shot in his legs but the doctors have said there shouldn't be any serious or permanent damage done."[1]
In 2018 Moore was awarded trainer of the year after winning multiple titles as a trainer with a bunch of talented fighters includingCarl Frampton,Rocky Fielding and more. Moore is going from strength to strength in his career as a boxing trainer, with the likes ofCarl Frampton,Tommy Coyle,Martin Murray,Rocky Fielding and most recentlyJack Catterall all linking up with him and Nigel Travis at the VIP Gym in Astley in the last few months. In 2021, Moore opened Walkden ABC, an amateur boxing gym, in his hometown.[2]
