Moore Wins In 11 Rounds To Prompt Possible Joe Brown Fight
Lightweight champion Davey Moore stopped Hogan Bassey in 11 rounds at the Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles. Moore indicated he would fight Joe Brown next if the money is right, with matchmaker George Parnassus calling a Moore Brown title bout a natural prospect. Bassey’s camp weighed options after the loss, while a potential Becerra rematch for Moore remains unlikely due to Becerra’s October rematch with Halimi. A crowd of 7,450 watched the telecast on ABC, generating a gross gate of 47,100.40.
