`Hurry Up’ Moore to fight no more in Australia

FORMER CABOFE bantamweight champion Leon `Hurry Up’ Moore scheduled fight in Australia later this month has been cancelled. 

Moore was down to battle George Kambosos in Sydney, Australia on January 31 but according to former IBF super featherweight champion Gairy St Clair, the plug was pulled on the contest.
Moore was set to fight the undefeated Australian for the WBA Pan Pacific title. The Guyanese who resides in the USA, will turn 36 this month and has only fought once in 2014. He knocked out Mark Murray in September to take his record to 31 victories and three defeats.
Kambosos is yet to be defeated in six fights and won the Australian lightweight title in August after gaining a unanimous decision over Robert Toomey. St Clair has been instrumental in a number of Guyanese fighters performing in Australia.
Last November, he assisted Atwell to have his first fight Down Under. However, Atwell failed against Kye MacKenzie and lost by TKO in round 10. Lennox Allen and Laured Steward also had sojourns in Australia compliments of St Clair.
