Moore ready to mix it up in The Bronx

Press Release: James Moore (11-0) held an open workout at the legendary Gleason’s Gym in Brooklyn, New York and talked about his upcoming fight with Chris Overbey (8-6), which takes place this Thursday, July 12, 2007 at the Utopia Paradise Theater in The Bronx, New York. Moore will be moving down to 154 pound class, saying “I was fighting at a higher weight because that’s what was in the contract. If the contract said 170, I come in at 170, I won’t give my opponents an inch. But I think 154 is the weight I need to be to compete for a world title. Let’s be honest, I’m not big enough to compete with Pavlik, Miranda, and Taylor. But at 154, I feel very strong.” Tickets can be purchased at Utopia’s Paradise Theater, 718-563-2222, at all Ticketmaster outlets or by calling Star Boxing at (718) 823-6600.
