July 1: We congratulate 24-year-old American Joshua Franco as he makes his debut into the Transnational Jr. Bantamweight Rankings this week. His surprise victory over Australia’s Andrew Moloney (#7) was hard fought and impressive, as was Moloney in his loss. Moloney drops to #9, Franco takes over #7. Jeyvier Cintron is bumped out.
Jason Moloney, twin brother of Andrew and the #8 contender at Bantamweight, rises from #8 to #6. Some observers may question why he would earn a two-spot bump for beating a non-contender in Leonardo Baez, but it’s important to consider who it is he is leapfrogging. Usually when this happens, it’s because those being leapfrogged are either not as active as they’d need to be to hold on to their spot or they’re coming off a loss. As one member pointed out, neither Tete nor Rodriguez have won 1 round between them in the last 20 months. Emmanuel Rodriguez defeated Moloney in a split decision in 2018, but had one fight since and was blasted out in two rounds. Moloney has gone 4-0 since. Zolani Tete also had one fight since 2018 and was himself stopped.
