GUYANA’S world-rated bantamweight boxer Leon Moore is setting his sights on making a global mark in the sport after collecting a cluster of international titles this past weekend.

Moore outclassed Colombian Mauricio Pastrana last Saturday night at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall for an easy points win in their multi-title 118-pound clash.

The win secured for Moore the World Boxing Association’s FedeLatin, FedeCaribe and North American Boxing Association (NABA) belts.

Ranked No.6 in the world by the World Boxing Council (WBC), the 30-year-old Moore is already in the frame for a world title shot and dreams of becoming the fifth Guyanese man to win a world boxing title.

“It is a great opportunity for me,” Moore told CMC Sport.

“I want to thank the promoters, manager (Carwyn Holland), and I want to even thank (Barbadian promoter) Sam Layne, who played a great part in getting me to this level of boxing,” added Moore, who had been based in Barbados for several years.

Moore told CMC Sport that trips to St Lucia and Singapore are among the possibilities for his next bouts as he aims to eventually join Andrew Lewis, Wayne Braithwaite, Vivian Harris and Gairy St Clair as Guyanese fighters to win world titles.

Displaying his wide array of boxing skills, Moore smothered the rugged Pastrana with solid combinations, supported by good hand and foot speed on Saturday night and carved out an easy win on all the judges’ cards, 119-109 (twice) and 120-109.

With the victory, Moore improved his record to 25 wins (22 knockouts) against two losses, and Pastrana dipped to 35 wins (23 knockouts) against 12 losses and two draws.
