Moore Yvon bout postponed again to August
Archie Moore's light heavyweight title defense against Yvon Durelle is rescheduled for August 12 at the Montreal Forum. Moore rushes to his wife in San Diego after surgery for removal of a non malignant meningioma. Durelle's camp and promoter react with disappointment but sympathy, while officials defer jurisdiction to the U S National Boxing Assn. The bout was previously delayed by a foot injury to Moore.
