Quick Picks
Our pick: Moloney to win
Value bet: Moloney to win by decision
Long shot: Moloney by TKO/KO
Tale of the Tape
The upcoming fight is a 10-round bantamweight clash featuring two boxers with contrasting fighting styles.
Moloney is a traditional orthodox fighter, but Donovan is a southpaw, which could create awkward angles and lead to some interesting moments inside the ring.
We can expect Moloney to box patiently from outside, using his footwork to neutralise Donovan's southpaw pressure and accumulate points over 10 rounds.
Donovan will aim to close distance early with volume punching and seek a knockout upset, testing Moloney's acknowledged southpaw vulnerabilities.
Here's how the two compare with Moloney's figures first:
• Age: 35 vs 29
• Height: 5'5" (165cm) vs 5'3" (160cm)
• Stance: Orthodox vs Southpaw
• Record: 28-4-0 vs 12-2-0
• KO Record: 20 vs 8
