ITATAYA ni WBA No. 4, WBC No. 4 , WBO No.9 at IBF No. 11 Andrew “The Monster” Moloney ang kanyang world rankings at walang talong marka laban sa Pilipinong si Cris “The King” Paulino sa Disyembre 14 sa Metro City, Northbridge, Perth, Western Australia.
Kasalukuyang WBA Oceania, Commonwealth at OPBF super flyweight champion si Moloney pero tiyak na mapapasabak siya kay Paulino na galing sa limang sunod na panalo, apat sa stoppages, mula nang huling matalo kay dating five-time world champion Aussie Vic Darchinyan noong Disyembre 12, 2015 sa 2ndround TKO sa Alexandia Basketball Stadium sa Perry Park, Sydney Australia.
“My preparation has been great for this fight so far. I didn’t have any time off after my last fight as I was straight back in the gym to help my brother prepare for his world title fight. I got some good sparring while we were over in Orlando for Jason’s fight and I am feeling great,” sabi ni Moloney sa BoxingScene.com kaugnay sa pagkatalo sa puntos sa Amerika ng kapatid niyang si Jason Moloney kay Emmanuel Rodriguez ng Puerto Rico kamakailan.
“I’m excited to be fighting in Perth and I can’t wait to fight on Thunderdome at Metro City. I have never been to the venue before but I have watched the fights from there on TV and the atmosphere looks great! I’m really looking forward to it,” diin ni Moloney. “I have fought in Perth a few times as an amateur. The last time I fought in Perth I had a great win over the WBC #1 bantamweight contender Duke Micah from Ghana.”
May rekord si Moloney na perpektong 18 panalo, 11 sa knockouts samantalang si Paulino ay may kartadang 19 panalo, 3 talo na may 8 pagwawagi sa knockouts.
