Joshua Franco vs. Andrew Moloney III

Terence Crawford defends his WBO welterweight world title against Kell Brook in Las Vegas.

Ioka, the reigning WBO super-flyweight champ, will square off with the WBA “regular” champion, Joshua Franco, on this year’s big fight finale. This fight, between a formidable champion in Ioka, who has been the super-fly guy since June of 2019, against a significantly younger bandit from San Antonio, who has been WBA champ at regular status for two-and-a-half years, should be an action affair.

Joshua Franco and Kazuto Ioka meet again for the WBA World Super Flyweight title following their draw on New Year's Eve in 2022.
