Comments Thread For: Joshua Franco-Andrew Moloney Ends in Controversial No-Contest

I know the WBA is trash and will take every opportunity to not do the right thing, but they need to order a rematch. This was reprehensible.

Russell Mora with a questionable call in favor of the Golden Boy fighter is a story as old as time. God I wish Teddy Atlas still called fights for ESPN.

NO. They must give Moloney his belt and Moloney should ignore Franco forever, no rematch deserved.

Maloney is getting annoying he literally boxed for 1 1/2 rds and regardless if you think it was a jab butt or shoulder nothing happened the most likely scenario was that Franco was gonna start picking it up like in the first fight and break Maloney down again but Maloney wants that cheap win no matter what.

Do a third and Franco whoops him again.

You know how ****** that sounds? Franco already proved he can whoop Maloney not the other way around.

He proved he won once. Moloney proved he won rematch. How many rematches of a rematch are done?

Terrible decision

That was a blatant robbery that we witnessed right in front of our eyes. Disgusting conduct by these senile geezers “reviewing” the footage. Moloney was robbed of his victory and hard work. I could only imagine the amount of training and concentration that he put into this, just to get screwed over by these crooks.

That headbutt was observed by the commentators and it is clear that it was on the left side of Franco's head not his right side where his eye was closing up. They kept replaying that moment over and over in slow motion even and you can clearly see that no contact was ever made on Franco's right side of his head/face.

Play that @ .25 speed ... 2:08 Mark in Round 1... big clash starts on the right side... More and more sure that caused the mess...

I have played it over and over. I have also watched that same clash from other angles not shown in this video. I have it recorded at home and they showed different angles from that clash and you can see it never made contact with the right side of the face. Plus after that clash there is a clear view of his right eye and it is not swollen yet. Even my wife who knows nothing about boxing was able to see it.

Some people just need to create conspiracy theories, I guess, about mystery clash on the right eye which never happened. Yet they manage to NOT see many punches in that eye which DID happen.

Pretty obvious there... Ref was perfectly placed and I think he saw it has it happened... Why nobody acknowledge that is beyond me...
