Moore Loses Decision During World Championships In India!

Alexandria, VA light welterweight Amelia Moore lost by decision Saturday during the 2018 Women's Elite World Championships in New Delhi, India.

Moore had the tough duty of facing a boxer from the home country of India in Simranjit Kaur Baatth.  According to reports, the bout gained the loudest and most energetic crowd response of the day and both women fought very hard.  Moore would go on to lose a 4-1 decision.

As a postscript:  The USA Women's Elite team is having a tough time in this tournament so far.  Only one boxer, flyweight Virginia Fuchs of Houston, TX, has advanced to the quarterfinals.
