Joshua Franco retains title on controversial no-decision
November 14, 2020
In an absurd turn of events, Joshua Franco retained his title following a two-round no-decision in his rematch with Andrew Moloney. Moloney was doing well and was winning the
fight. According to the referee Franco recieved a accidental headbutt witch caused his right eye to swell and could no longer see out of it. After two rounds the fight was stopped.
The fight went to replay and it took the Nevada State officials 26 long minutes to come to a decision. After watching the replay the officials went along with referee Russell Mora's
decision.
