I can’t wait for Friday night. I am all about Perfect Pains Silent Victory (PPSV),” said Moore. “What I mean is that I had to endure a lot pain during this camp but it was perfect because everything that I did, and had to go through will lead me to victory tomorrow.”
“Marquis was one of the best prospects to come out of the 2016 class. I expect a powerful performance from him tomorrow in Jamaica, New York,” said Split-T Management CEO, David McWater.
Moore weighed in at 164.8 lbs while Artis was 164.2 lbs at Thursday’s weigh in.
