NEW YORK (December 22, 2010) ? Boxing 360 has announced the signing of WBC No. 3 rated super bantamweight Leon ?Hurry Up? Moore to an exclusive promotional contract.
The 31-year-old southpaw Moore (27-2, 22 KOs), from Guyana, is the reigning PABA and WBC CABOFE super bantamweight champion, as well as the former NABA, Guyanese and CABOFE bantamweight titlist.
Another Boxing 360 fighter is Guyana super middleweight champion Lennox ?2 Sharpe? Allen (12-0-1, 7 KOs) who recently defeated Nick Brinson for the vacant New York State title.
?We?re excited to sign a talented fighter like Moore,? Boxing 360 Director of Boxing Bob Duffy said. ?He?s a world-class contender at super bantamweight and bantamweight. We can?t wait to bring him to fight in the United States and position him for a world title fight next year against (WBC super bantamweight champion Toshiaki) Nishioka or any of the world champions at 122 or 118 pounds.?
Moore captured the WBC CABOFE and NABA bantamweight belts in September 2009, when he won a unanimous 12-round decision against former 2-time world champion Maurico Pastrana. Last January, Leon won a unanimous 12-round decision versus Indonesia Boxing Association champion Marangin Marbun for the vacant PABA crown. In his last fight (Nov. 16), Moore won a 10-round decision against Breilor Teran in Guyana.
Other Boxing 360 fighters include USBA heavyweight champion and IBF #15 rated Maurice ?Sugar Moe? Harris, 2004 U.S. Olympian Jason ?Big Six? Estrada, Mike Mollo, Joshua ?Juice? Harris, Emad Ali, former world champion Alejandro ?Naco? Berrio, Angel ?Toro? Hernandez, and ?King? David Estrada.
