In May 2013, he announced a comeback, hopefully during the Prizefighter series, after discussing a deal with Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Promotions. In July 2014, Starie was in training, with the hope of fighting for the Commonwealth or British title, but once again the comeback didn't materialise.

In 2012, he was appointed fire liaison officer at West Suffolk College, working with young males identified as needing positive role models. Outside of his work with the College, Starie participated in several challenges for charity, acted as an instructor at the Eastgate Amateur Boxing Club and also organised a running club for young people in Bury St Edmunds.

Back in June 2006, Starie had talked about returning to the ring. Promoters and the British Boxing Board of Control told him that he was likely to need only two warm-up fights before being offered a shot at the British super middleweight title, which he vacated following his retirement, but no fights were made.

In 2003, he vacated the British super middleweight title and lost his Commonwealth super middleweight title on points to Andre Thysse.

In June 2003, Starie fought for the WBA (Super) and IBF and super middleweight titles, losing on points, again, to Sven Ottke. This was to be Starie's last fight in the ring. He announced his retirement in August 2003.

In January 2000, he fought Joe Calzaghe for the WBO super middleweight title, losing on points.

In March 1998, he won the Commonwealth super middleweight title, beating Clinton Woods on points. Starie regained the British super middleweight title in November 1998 when he knocked out Ali Forbes to win the vacant title.

Known as "Jedi", Starie won the British super middleweight title when he stopped Sam Storey in 1997. Starie was stopped three months later by Dean Francis.
