Unfortunately for Reymart Gaballo he will not get the opportunity to challenge for this title as Jason Moloney will instead be fighting on Naoya Inoue’s undercard on May 6th. Moloney will be fighting Yoshiki Takei. Takei isn’t a much better opponent but the choice of fighting him over Gaballo most likely comes down to which promoter he is affiliated with. Takei is with Top Rank aligned Ohashi Promotion so they are trying to keep things in-house. Regardless of the politics, it’s still a solid card with Takouma Inoue also defending his title.

Wow, what a bad turn of events for Reymart Gaballo. So the mandatory fight that suppose to happen will now vanish into thin air, boxing politics again at its best.

Agree that Top Rank will try to do everything inhouse.

Thanks for this information mate, will lock the thread now as this fight will not happen at least this year.

Moloney loves a hard and grind fight, very close and then throwing everything. I think he will try to test Gaballo early with that kind of strategy and see how Raymart will respond. And if that happens, I think Gaballo will have the advantage. Unless Moloney started to fight in the distance and uses his jab and try to avoid the power of Gaballo early. But he is fighting in his country, and I think he will be carried away to fight toe to toe so that he can please his fans. One thing that might go against Gaballo is that if this fight goes on, he might round out of gas which is his weakness. So he should really be 100% condition here, and thinks that it's possible that this fight is going till the last round.

Being in his home turf might give him advantage on this one. Remember, Pacquiao vs. Horn, so if Gaballo wants to win this fight. Better aim for knockout at early rounds. If this will go the distance, Moloney, may possibly win via unanimous or split decision.
Yes, yes, no one will forget that faithful night as I watch it live and to my dismay, Jeff Horn was declared the winner when the world see that it is robbery. And I think many gamblers lost a lot of money.

Gaballo should aim to win this match for him to wave his flag and redeem the recent losses of his fellow Filipino boxers. I understand Filipinos are aiming to find another boxing caliber like Pacquiao. And it seems, no one yet is following his footsteps.
Then he should take it personal and motivated himself to wave the flag of his country as Japanese fighter is now the new boxing capital in Asia, lead by Inoue. But winning here and becoming a champion, he could restore some pride for Filipinos around the world.

For sure, a lot of Filipinos are voting for Gaballo, hence, leading the poll.   Tongue
It is, and hopefully it will materialized and Gaballo winning by knockout.

They should all learn from Manny's exercise to strengthen his body or abs, here is a young Pacquiao doing that hard training and it really pays off,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpcso_3tj7c

Hopefully Gaballo will somewhat stop the bleeding of Philippines losing in title fight. Ancajas was the recent victim. All advantage points to Moloney, but this is boxing and it can change everything with just one punch. And as per the poll, majority is seeing Reymart Gaballo to strong a knock out victory, could be biased voting though.

I think the training now is more advanced compared to the time of Pacman. It's just that Pacman is exceptional, so if you are just an ordinary boxer despite having very good training, you'll still end up being an ordinary fighter, although you have a chance to become a champion, but not like what Pacman had achieved in his career.

There could be advancement in training, but as we can see those kind of hardwork and old school really did good to Pacquiao throughout his career. But as we have witnessed, he is one of a kind so nobody can duplicate what he had done even if they copy his training regimen. And just like what @inthelongrun said, Roach trains a lot of Filipino after Pacquiao but no one get close to what Manny did and still up to know, he is the best fighter that Roach had handled.

Gaballo is the next closest to reality in becoming a champion, but he is the underdog here, so we can't be sure if he'll upset the champion on his territory. To make it possible, he needs to ensure that he'll finish with a KO, otherwise, there's no assurance at all on the decision.

We want him to win by knockout no less, he is going to fight in Moloney's hometown, so he will have to prepare his best version, as it is really hard to see him winning by decision. But strange things happen even if you fought in other countries.

He also got knocked out twice by body shots but everything changed when Freddie Roach became his head coach. Maybe it is also more on Pacman's burning desire and determination to get better as he progressed. There were some Ph fighters that went under the tutelage of Roach but they did not achieved something big. Magsayo became champion but only because he fought a one-handed and inactive opponent while losing it quickly in his first title defense.

Gaballo is heavy handed so he's got a fair chance to score an upset. But almost all of the other stats favored the defending champion. Gaballo has to be in the best shape of his life if he wants to become a champion.

Moloney's advantage is experienced being a veteran in bantamweight. But that advantage won't be effective if his body won't able to keep to a much younger and quicker Reymart Gaballo who is much hungry to taste a big title and is currently a rising star.

I don't see  Jason Moloney as a veteran, because they both have 27 fights and also both start their pro in 2014.

Maybe there's a huge difference on their age since  Jason Moloney is already 33 years old while Gaballo is only 27. 5 years gap but not that much as 33 years is not yet close to retirement age. To back my statement, you can check again their respective records.

I think Moloney is still good at 33. Maybe what @Heartilly meant by being the veteran is that Moloney has many world level type of fights compared to Gaballo who's been fighting nobodies for many years.

I also see Moloney as the hungrier fighter than Gaballo. Moloney wants to prove that he is the best in the division and is also craving to make a great performance in front of his native fans. Lately, almost if not all Ph fighters were losing to their world level fights by body shots. Gaballo's lone loss was also a body shot and it might happen again.

It's better if both boxers are aggressive from the start, so the fight will end early. It's better that way than waiting for Round 12 to just see a boring fight. If Moloney is inspired by the fans and goes for an early KO win, and that's what Gaballo wants, he is also good at finishing the fight early. So either him or Moloney will be KO'd in the fight; either way, people will be entertained.

In most cases at a title defense fight, you can't expect the title holder to be aggressive. They can still aim for a knockout victory without going into aggressive mode. The one that should be aggressive right from the start is always the challenger as they are the ones attempting to steal the title and should go for a quick scoring.

As a fact, even if we do not apply what I mentioned above, Jason Moloney is not a typical aggressive fighter.

Much especially in this fight, since Moloney's camp knows Gaballo as an in-fighter and wants a close bout, they will surely not consider advising Moloney to go aggressive unless it's necessary to do so depending on what will be the flow of the fight as it progresses.

I am expecting it that way for him, but we never know. What if he is trying to score an aggressive victory as he wants to deliver a message to the world and would possibly get a unification fight with another champion if he wins this? Moloney is fighting in his home country, so most likely he'll impress the fans here and be very much aware of the power of Gaballo.

But that doesn't mean he'll be careless if he gets aggressive, as it could also bring some positive outcomes in his fight. Just imagine if Moloney were to win via KO, defeating Gaballo; that would create a headline, and we know what will happen next. Isn't it a fighter wants to gain popularity? I guess winning via KO is the best way.

It would be interesting if he will just give Gaballo the fight that he wanted, a toe-to-toe fight will make this very interesting. The strategy of Gaballo is very obvious as he will just attack like Sultan, and since Moloney doesn't have a high knockout power ratio, he might just lose on points if he will not match the aggressiveness of the challenger. I'm seeing maybe he'll use the same strategy Inoue has used against Ancajas, but Gaballo will be fully conditioned here, that's for sure.

It's not a bad idea, but he will not do that because he'll have to respect the power of Gaballo. Based on record, Jason Moloney's last 3 wins are from MD and UD, meaning he is using his skills very well, and he is not careless as a champion. Gaballo, although had 3 straight wins after his loss to Donaire, 2 of them are in KO. But he is not fighting an ordinary boxer anymore; I mean, he is the challenger in a championship fight. He has to use a better game plan; aggressiveness is good but not using your head is bad.

As for me, I'll just choose our own. He might be in the territory of his opponent, but this is not new to him. With the betting odds that are very attractive, aside from the support, which is the main reason, the possible big return is one more factor to consider when betting on Gaballo.

..it's like a stigma that Australia has been biased but I do not think that is the case anymore.

We should not focus on Australia itself but on the judges assigned to the fight. The selected judges in a big fight always came from different countries. It's not the country but the politics behind the fight that has the power to influence the judge's decision.

I'm sure that even if this fight between Gaballo and Moloney is held in the latter's home country, the possible manipulation is because of the politics and not on the country, Australia. I don't even see it as an advantage for Moloney that it will be held in his country. He is far from his prime and even in his prime, he didn't face fierce boxers in the bantamweight.

Moloney's advantage is experienced being a veteran in bantamweight. But that advantage won't be effective if his body won't able to keep to a much younger and quicker Reymart Gaballo who is much hungry to taste a big title and is currently a rising star.

But there could be influence on the judges itself from Australia or some entity within the country to make a bias judgement. I'm sure you have seen the Manny Pacquaio vs Jeff Horn fight and almost everyone here thinks that Manny won and that the judges favor Jeff Horn because the fight is made in Australia. So we should take notice of it specially if the fight lasted that 12 rounds and we really don't know who wins.

That's why it is advisable for Gaballo to really dominate this fight early on and not give Moloney the confidence to go full 12 rounds as it's very dangerous that Gaballo is going to lose on the scorecard of the judges.

Based on the poll, Gaballo by Knockout is the winner here. Majority is seeing Gaballo, although not as experience, has the power to win here via knockout. And when you mentioned the fight in Australia between Pacquaio and Horn, it's like a stigma that Australia has been biased but I do not think that is the case anymore.

But just to avoid that kind of controversy, Gaballo should aim and win by knockout here so that there will be no doubts about the result. Or at least make it a clear winner on the scorecard just like what Haney did to Kambosos so that there will be no "robbery" in this fight.

A lot are rooting for Gaballo to pull an upset and bring home a title for the country. I for one is also hoping for an upset but I always vote what my mind says. I say Gaballo only has a punchers chance here. Moloney is capable of scoring a knockout too but he also has decent skills while he is already fighting at home and is also the defending champion. Gaballo is used to winning by knockout and is only fighting once a year since suffering his first defeat at the hands of Donaire and he might gassed out in the later rounds if he cannot knockout Moloney in the first half.

It's true, we will support our Filipino boxers no matter what, but if we will decide without emotions, I think some of us here are going to vote or bet on Moloney. Although I think Moloney has been in some crazy wars, I think he might still pull the trigger and will destroy our very own Gaballo. But it's going to be a war, I don't see Gaballo easily giving up his dreams unless it will be a body shot that he can't recover.

So he will be looking for a early knockout, but he should be ready for a grueling 12 round fight if necessary and training to have a lot of gas tank that can last him the full distance. If he faded in the latter rounds after dominating Moloney early, it will be a tough lost for him.

It's sad that the sport that is producing the most and the best in the country is not getting the support it deserves. Even Manny Pacquiao has more budget and attention to the other sport than boxing that brought him from rags to riches.

Gaballo definitely has to train harder although this could  be too late to make huge adjustments. Gaballo will probably push early and try to score a knockout but pretty sure Moloney knows it. Moloney will fight backwards and will use his skills if Gaballo goes for the knockout early.

At last, Reymart Gaballo will have another chance again to compete in one of the top belts in the Bantamweight Division. After a failed attempt at the WBC Bantamweight title last 2021 against fellow PH boxer, Nonito Donaire Jr., I think now against another foreign national, he will be more excited to fight.

Jason Moloney has been one of the most popular boxers in the bantamweight division for long but he's currently way past his prime. Nothing really special in most of his fights and not against big names. His big fight experience may be against Naoya Inoue but he's just a substitution there.

Anyway, this is the chance now for Gaballo to pursue his long-time desire. I'm sure he can handle the much older Moloney.

And if we can say that this year is Japan's golden era in boxing, then we can conclude it as well that during Pacman's prime and Nonito Donaire it could also be very well considered as Philippines golden era. However, we all know that sooner or later those boxers are going to retire.

I do agree that this fight is still very close, but I check my favorite sports bookies, and as usual the odds is not yet listed.

Moloney though might be the slight favorite, but definitely Gaballo can be considered as live dog here.

No question that he is a great boxer but I don't see him being a special one. However, I believe that the quality of Moloney is not hard for him to beat, so I'm rooting for him.

I would agree with that. If I were to choose the top boxers in the Philippines based on the time I witnessed all their fights, this would be my ranking:

-Pacman
-Donaire
-Casimero

I think among the active boxers now, Casimero is the most dangerous fighter, but he has been unfortunate that his journey in boxing has turned sour. His enemy here is time; although he still has the talent, he is not getting the championship fight that he deserves.

Actually there we're a lot of good PH boxers during the time of Manny Pacquiao, not only Donaire but.

- Hawaiian Punch Brian Villoria
- Donnie Nietes
- Penalosa

Anyhow, we want to see Gaballo to win here, he is very young, good potential, he just have the right trainer for him. Just like Roach with Manny Pacquiao or Donaire with his father early on in his career.

A lot are rooting for Gaballo to pull an upset and bring home a title for the country. I for one is also hoping for an upset but I always vote what my mind says. I say Gaballo only has a punchers chance here. Moloney is capable of scoring a knockout too but he also has decent skills while he is already fighting at home and is also the defending champion. Gaballo is used to winning by knockout and is only fighting once a year since suffering his first defeat at the hands of Donaire and he might gassed out in the later rounds if he cannot knockout Moloney in the first half.

If Gaballo sees this as a huge opportunity to make a name for himself, he will try his best and he will be motivated to fight Moloney at his very best condition. But if he won't change his boxing skills and let this chance slide, then his career in boxing will probably be over because no one has recovered from and back to his shape except a boxer who already established a name in the Industry. an unpopular boxer like them should have high aspirations to exert all their effort to win like Manny was in his prime, as we can see, most of these new boxers are all the same, they seem not to take this huge opportunity as a chance to train well and give the fans the best of themselves when they step inside the ring.

I think the Philippines has a lot of talented boxers, but they lack facilities and support from the government. Boxing is a sport where we could excel, but it seems there's not enough budget to motivate our boxers. While we've had champions in the past, maintaining this consistency is very important as Manny had already lifted us up. With the current standing of the Philippines in the world of boxing, it appears we are declining, which is not a good sign for our future. I'm afraid we might not see entertaining and successful boxers like Manny and Donaire anymore. These 2 were the best in their eras, but Manny is a legend, making him different.

It's declining as the Japanese is taking the boxing world right now and it has been said that it is now their golden years. Similar to the Philippines before, when Manny Pacquaio and Nonito Donaire was at the top. But after both are now retired, no one has carried the torch for the Philippines as they suffer defeat after defeat.
That's the sad reality, but we have to accept that it has really happened. However, it's not all the time that we will stay at the bottom. We have these young prospects that I saw being shared by our vloggers, and I'm surprised by them. The one I remember was Fajardo; that was his last name. I'm hoping to see his name on the list of champions in the future.

Hopefully Gaballo will be the one that will bring the championship again to the Philippines. But the competition is though against Moloney. Jason has the experienced and all the advantage as it will be held in his country.

No question that he is a great boxer but I don't see him being a special one. However, I believe that the quality of Moloney is not hard for him to beat, so I'm rooting for him.

Right, that stigma has stuck with us, Filipinos still doesn't forget how Manny Pacquaio was robbed by Jeff Horn fighting in his native Australia. And so we can't really take that out of the equation every fight that it scheduled on that country specially in this case as it will be another Filipino fighting. Nevertheless, it will be totally in the hands of Gaballo. He should come here as the aggressor as he is the the one going to travel in that country and that he shouldn't rely to the judges to win this fight. Yes, he has the power to knockout Moloney and so he should be going for that in this fight.

The pressure is high for Gaballo since there are currently no Filipino boxing champions on the list. He could be the first to become a champion after the listing became empty. Ancajas failed, so now he should take the responsibility to uplift our country in the boxing world. This is another chance for him; he needs to have a convincing win so he could start chasing his dream. Just like Takuma Inoue, who recently defended his belt, Gaballo is also inspired to become a champion, and maybe someday we will see Gaballo vs. Inoue, and hopefully, Gaballo will be able to avenge his fellow boxer who fell to the hands of Inoue.

The pressure is indeed very high but it will make him more hungry, Gaballo has a good record as a true knock-out artist, and the only fighter who beat him was Donaire via kidney punch I have high hopes that Gaballo will perform better than Ancajas and Sultan.

Gaballo has straight wins after that loss, 2 of which are via KO he is an up-and-coming fighter of all the fighters left in the Filipino campaign so far right now, there is no Filipino champion, there was a time when there were 5 Filipino champions, it's a very bad year for the Filipino boxing community since Pacquiao's retirement Filipino fighters are losing, I think its time for the boxing promoters to tap new talents.

I think the expectations are not too high since he isn't a champion; he is just a challenger in this context. Maybe "inspired" is the right word to use, but if he were to fail, there's no blaming him as he tried his best. It's just that our boxers now may not be as good as during the times of Pacman. Just like during the fight of Ancajas, I'm still optimistic that one Filipino will finally become a champion this year. By the way, if Gaballo loses, we still have Magsayo who has a chance to become a champion again but in a different division.

Moloney will have the advantage of fighting in his country, which might make it difficult to win on the scorecards. Based on their styles I expect it to be a competitive and exciting fight. Moloney doesn't have much power. Gaballo shouldn't be afraid to be aggressive and try to score some knockdowns so that it will convince the judges to give him the victory.
That's often the assumption, as people think judges may favor the champion, especially when fighting in their home country. The camp of Gaballo is likely aware of these possibilities, and rather than relying on that factor, they may strategize to ensure the fight does not go the full 12 rounds.

This is a crucial fight for Gaballo, as he might not have many opportunities if he fails here. On the other hand, the champion, even if he loses, still has the chance to become a top challenger in the future.

I consider this to be a very evenly matched fight. Moloney is a tough warrior, but his fights are often close and could go either way. Gaballo has already lost when he stepped up his level of competition and was knocked out by Nonito Donaire. Even though Donaire was already old and well past his best years I would still consider him a better opponent than Moloney. Gaballo should take that experience as a lesson and now that he is getting another opportunity, should be better prepared and have the motivation to become champion.

I am not too happy with Gaballo's last fight. I think he only unleashed 5 punches and that was it. And prior to the Thai opponent, Gaballo struggled against an unknown local opponent. Gaballo only fought once a year since he was defeated by Donaire. I haven't watched Jason Moloney's last fight, but I heard he somewhat struggled. Nonetheless, it's a title fight compared to the opponents Gaballo faced.

Of course, I would love to see Gaballo winning a title, but my head says Moloney has his number. Gaballo's lack of activity and lack of quality opponents did not enhance him. I still see him as a fighter with a raw power. He's still awkward but maybe Donaire Sr. will address his flaws now that they are working a bit longer. Gaballo has to land his power shots because Moloney has the skills while also capable of scoring knockouts.

Oh so he is trained by Donaire Sr? and I my recall, I think there was a storyline between Donaire Sr and Jr and during their fight years ago, it was highlighted. But I do agree that Gaballo is very raw talent and just like the rest of Filipino fighters, all of them have power, but they need to be polished at the beginning. Just like what Roach did to Manny early on when the take the kid on his wing.

He will be the underdog here and for sure Moloney is ready for a battle as he knows what a Filipino boxer is capable of. Him and Donaire should fight for the vacant title but he duck Donaire. But then Donaire lost to Alexandro Santiago in a upset.

Great chance for Reymart to become a champion again after falling to Donaire. I think he can beat Moloney as the latter is not so technical. Moloney was KO by Naoya Inoue, so he is not on the level of Inoue which I think Gaballo can also KO him. I'm interested on the betting odds of this fight, perhaps Gaballo will be the underdog, and I'm sure will bet on him to win by KO.
It looks like Reymart will have big chance of getting the championship belt again by defeating Moloney and this is Reymart opportunity to take revenge for his failure when he was defeated by Donaire.
In this fight, Moloney will be under pressure from Reymart because it is certain that Reymart is more careful and he is also boxer who has managed to win 90% by knockout.
Only one who managed to beat him was Donaire and it was truly surprising fight.
It's understandable why he lost against Donaire. It was probably due to the lack of experience in big fights, while Donaire has a lot of experience and is a dangerous fighter who can end his opponents via KO. In fact, Donaire was the only one who gave Inoue a tough battle in his career, so it's safe to say that Donaire and Inoue are on the same level, and if Donaire were still at his peak, perhaps even better.

So, in this scenario, Inoue beat Moloney, while Donaire defeated Gaballo. They are below them, but one of them has a chance to stay as a champion.

But I wouldn't be surprised if the Filipino will be the underdog.
of course he will be.
Of course he will really be the favorite in this fight, he has also been able to prove his prowess in the ring with the various wins and titles he has previously achieved.
Normally champ are the favorite to win, and since Gaballo hasn't been so impressive, then we can't expect him to flip the betting odds.
Let's take what the bookies will offer and decide from there if we bet.

Reymart is still very young, so there's a lot of promise for his career. Yes, that lost to another Filipino is a learning experience for him during that time. He was fighting one of the legends of Filipino boxing in Nonito and he is just unlucky that during that time, Donaire still can still pull the trigger. But Reymart has bounce back already from that L and now this year will have a great chance again to become a champion. Although every time you go to the champion's backyard and fight, you really need to win impressively and knock him out so that there will be no "home cooking" just like what happen to Manny in Australia against Jeff Horn.
That was two years ago, I'm sure he learn his lesson and as we can see on his fights after that, he had 3 straight wins, 2 are in KO and one is Split decision against his fellow Filipino Boxer. The last one is something very impressive, it's probably the reason why he was given a break on becoming a top contender against Jason Moloney. I believe it's a 50/50 fight but we are lucky that we can get an odds of an underdog.
Gaballo's last fight was not impressive to me bro, the Thailander did not come to fight you can see that in the way he winked at Gaballo as if he was saying don't be too hard on me bro  Cheesy the Thailander was waiting for Gaballo to throw those killer punches he was just too careful not to get hit on parts that he would get sleep, It was not a good tune fight for Gaballo, I'm sure after the fight he thinks that had better opponents in the gym.

Going back to the fight, Maloney is a worthy opponent he had a string of wins after losing to Inoue's, he had better momentum than Gaballo of course since he's a Filipino I'm rooting for him, he is one of the Philippines' promising boxer and this his chance to prove it.

Yeah, he had 3 fights after that but he hasn't a boxer with big name in the boxing industry.  This will be his next attempt after losing to Donaire if we are talking about real challenge. His last match was pretty much impressive, so you can see that he really have the skills to KO someone even in the early rounds. However, this one is a championship fight, he is the challenger so I'm sure he'll be very careful right from the get go, being careless like what happened against Donaire might lead to another KO loss, although his opponent though doesn't have a high KO percentage but he has KO wins, so it's still possible.

Gaballo's only loss came from Donaire, resulting in a KO. If he avoided Donaire, he could've kept his undefeated record. But nope, he went for the higher risk. With 22 KOs out of 27 fights, he's a tough dude for Jason Moloney, who hasn't won a KO victory since 2022.

I think he can't avoid to fight Donaire that time, it was mandated by the governing bodies and so he has to face the Filipino Flash and it was an ugly result as Donaire's experience and power was too much for Reymart that time.

The fight got announced recently, so we're waiting for the betting odds as it gets closer. Lesser-known fights don't attract bookies early, so it's tough to bet ahead. Both fighters got time to prep, and fingers crossed, no more delays. Can't wait for Gaballo to win this one!

Imagine both Gaballo and Ancajas winning, giving us two Filipino champs in the division. That'd be pretty cool, right?

Not far from happening, the Philippines hasn't had any champions, or if ever they had, it was just short-lived unlike before wherein it was a golden era for them when they had a lot of great champions lead by the Filipino legend Manny Pacquiao and Donaire. So it's about time that someone from the PH will raise their flag again with Gaballo and Ancajas fighting for the championship belt this year.

It seems like most of us here voted for Gaballo to win by KO.

I added to the vote, and it's now 5 or 83.3% of the total votes. It's not because we are biased; it's because we believe that he will win. Jason Moloney, who is the champion, is not as intimidating as Inoue was when he was still in this division. So, I guess Gaballo is ready to take on the challenge, and his loss to Donaire is a learning experience.

I assume that with this recent win, where he KO'd his opponent in round 1, it would make him more dangerous, and his confidence is likely very high going into this fight. He seems hungrier now, knowing that a win here will make him a champion again.

This is the fight I'm referring, a round 1 KO by him.

After knocking out his Thai foe in the first round, Reymart Gaballo earns the right to face and challenge Jason Moloney for the WBO Bantamweight belt. This fight will serve as the main undercard of the fight between Kambosos vs Lomachenco.

For sure many Filipino fans will be rooting for Gaballo to win this one as Moloney is very beatable.

What are your thought guys of this fight?

If I am. Or mistaken the Filipino fighter reymart gaballo has already 28 total matches which is one of that matches is loss. But that's not the point here the experience is there so without a doubt this will be a good fight as we all know that Jason Maloney has 29 games in his professional record which pretty good experience as well. But I think the Filipino fighter will be the underdog here since Maloney have already his name in boxing career and he is popular in some countries.

It is an even fight but I believe Graballo's power is enough to subdue Maloney, this is a must-watch fight because both fighters love to slug it out, between the two Graballo has an edge in power I hope he'll take out Maloney so Filipinos will have a new champion, I hope he will be more defensive because in his only loss, Donaire caught him with a wicked punch in the body.

Don't misspell his name mate.  Grin It's Gaballo, not Graballo. It would be another boxer with a different spelling.

Well, according to their statistics, Gaballo has a high KO rate since he has an 81% KO rate, while Moloney has only 70% KO rate.
As we can see, there's a big disparity in terms of KO wins, so if this fight will end up in KO, it will easily goes to Gaballo wining here.

We can check their respective stats, maybe there's something we can add here from that stats.

This is the video of that fight, it's an easy fight for Graballo the Thai guy has a good record but in his last 5 fights he has 2 losses one coming from knock out and he is already 40 years old The promoters pick a weak opponent for Graballo and this is not good.

For sure many Filipino fans will be rooting for Gaballo to win this one as Moloney is very beatable.

What are your thought guys of this fight?
It is an even fight but I believe Graballo's power is enough to subdue Maloney, this is a must-watch fight because both fighters love to slug it out, between the two Graballo has an edge in power I hope he'll take out Maloney so Filipinos will have a new champion, I hope he will be more defensive because in his only loss, Donaire caught him with a wicked punch in the body.

It seems like most of us here voted for Gaballo to win by KO. Well, I can't blame the guys for voting, as I'm pretty much aware that we have a lot of Gaballo supporters here. I would be happy to see if the odds are 3:1, just like the odds for Ancajas vs. Inoue. If only the odds were out early, I could possibly try to parlay (Gaballo + Ancajas) to win in their respective fights as the challengers. As to the record of Jason Moloney, I see nothing special on his past fights, my confidence is very high for Gaballo to take the belt from him.

Great chance for Reymart to become a champion again after falling to Donaire. I think he can beat Moloney as the latter is not so technical. Moloney was KO by Naoya Inoue, so he is not on the level of Inoue which I think Gaballo can also KO him. I'm interested on the betting odds of this fight, perhaps Gaballo will be the underdog, and I'm sure will bet on him to win by KO.
It looks like Reymart will have big chance of getting the championship belt again by defeating Moloney and this is Reymart opportunity to take revenge for his failure when he was defeated by Donaire.
In this fight, Moloney will be under pressure from Reymart because it is certain that Reymart is more careful and he is also boxer who has managed to win 90% by knockout.
Only one who managed to beat him was Donaire and it was truly surprising fight.
I think the reason why Moloney will feel the pressure is not because Gaballo is more careful but due to the aggressiveness of Gaballo. That is his trademark, he always go for a knockout, that's why he loss to Donaire because Donaire was able to predict him and uses his counter punching trademark as well. Moloney here doesn't have the skills of Donaire, so I'm sure it's not hard for Gaballo to win.


But I wouldn't be surprised if the Filipino will be the underdog.
of course he will be.
Of course he will really be the favorite in this fight, he has also been able to prove his prowess in the ring with the various wins and titles he has previously achieved.
Maybe just a slight favorite, but I would be happy to take an odds of +110 for Gaballo to win the fight.

Gaballo's only loss came from Donaire, resulting in a KO. If he avoided Donaire, he could've kept his undefeated record. But nope, he went for the higher risk. With 22 KOs out of 27 fights, he's a tough dude for Jason Moloney, who hasn't won a KO victory since 2022.

The fight got announced recently, so we're waiting for the betting odds as it gets closer. Lesser-known fights don't attract bookies early, so it's tough to bet ahead. Both fighters got time to prep, and fingers crossed, no more delays. Can't wait for Gaballo to win this one!

Imagine both Gaballo and Ancajas winning, giving us two Filipino champs in the division. That'd be pretty cool, right?

If I'm not mistaken, Jason Moloney beat Vincent Astrolabio for the WBO World Bantam (vacant). So it's interesting that his first defense will be against another Filipino in Gaballo. I have no doubt that Reymart is a great boxer, but the experience of Moloney, having been with Naoya Inoue and Emmanuel Rodriguez which he lost, it will be very hard for Reymart to overcome that.

Plus this is going to be in Australia, so the homecourt advantage will be on Moloney obviously. I'm seeing Gaballo as maybe 3:1 underdog here?

Of course for Filipino supporters, it will be good, but again, gonna be difficult for him to overcome this odds, in my opinion. And he needs to be a brawler here, Moloney loves to engage so maybe that will be his change, to hit Moloney flush in the chin and maybe score a stoppage or knockout. That's the only way I see him winning here.

Great to hear that Gaballo will have another crack on the belt, he was touted to be the next Filipino champion, but unfortunately, he faces Donaire and was knockout. So far no odds from our favorite crypto sports bookies.

But I wouldn't be surprised if the Filipino will be the underdog. I think it will be good for him, as we all know that Filipino has as a big heart and I will give Gaballo a chance here. Moloney is tough no doubt about it, he has been in a lot of wars, and so his body could have take a toll already and if Gaballo's power hit that chin, I'm seeing that Moloney going to the canvass.
