In august 2010 James changed his name to Money-J and moved to Phuket in Thailand to persue his fighting career under his own boxing company (JOD PRODUCTIONS) accompanied by his manager Balraj Singh from india and trainer Sam Akkersdijk from holland.

Boxing Career Money-J began his professional career on august 17, 2010, at Bangla Boxing Stadium Patong fighting a local boxer Nong Nong who had a record of 3 wins and 2 losses. Money-J was a favourite for the bout although he only made minimal contact with his opponent Nong Nong retired 50seconds in to the first round as he was blinded in both eyes complaing of a burning sensation. It was alleged Money-J had a substance on his boxing gloves to blind his opponent. JOD PROMOTIONS denied any wrong doing in the bout and lifted a prize of THB50,000/€1450.39.

7 days after his successful debut Money-J was back in the ring, on August 24, 2010 in Patong Muay Thai Boxing Stadium, against Aria Konta his record was 4 wins 0 losses. Money-J was a slight underdog in a very closely contested bout that saw Money-J land far more power shots and Konta land far more insignificant shots as well as an even level of aggression between the two competitors, Konta complained to the referee that he was blinded in both eyes and he failed to answer the bell for the start of the second round, granting Money-J the victory. JOD PROMOTIONS lifted a prize of THB42,000/€1218.33 but it is believed over €6200 was won from local wagers placed on the bout.

Money-J's talent and flashy southpaw style marked him out from an early age. Although James would never take nutrition seriously he was careful to admonish that mental and spiritual preparation are fundamental to the success of physical training. James's dislike of the long hard training camps and long periods away from his family hindered his success. Money-J's boxing career is seen by many experts in the sport as one of unfulfilled potential.

Since leaving the sport and being inactive for the best part of 4 years, James is believed to be living as a recluse and cant be found on any social media sites. Money-J has founded his own money lending company (BureauDeJames) it is managed by his former manager Belraj Singh, who preferres a peaceful solution to business disputes when possible.
