His corner must be regretting letting him out for the final round. That KO was brutal to watch
That ref should have really stopped it after the dude went down the second time
Yeah that was disgusting how anyone gave him a chance after the second knockdown
That was a BRUTALITY (Mortal Kombat voice)
the whole fight was brutal. Junto Nakatani is not a one punch guy. He's a THUDDING volume puncher and is a big problem for the guys at 115 like roman and Gallo Estrada.
@@jaimezepeda3878 I would love to see him unify with one of the other champions at 115. It's such a great division
Nakatani is a future p4p star. This kid has dynamite in his hands. He’s also big, I could see him jumping up to 122 and even 126. Japanese fighters are dominating the lower weight divisions.
well they kinda always have lmao
Japan has long been the country with the third or fourth largest number of world champions in the world. Along with Mexico, it is definitely one of the powerhouses in the lightweight class for a long time.
gotta make a video how espn top rank is hyping up these japenese fighters way too much as well not just the blacks Especially nakatani whose a hypejob Cause saw that fight vs francisco jr and guy got robbed again in japan 🤦♂️. He was beating the fuck up out of the suppose monster 😂 And round 5 almost gonna knock him out and ref saved him gave him over 20 seconds to recover wtf so weird. And saved him again round 7 gave nakatani over 20 seconds to recover again cause of a suppose lowblow when their wasnt. Everytime jr. was hurting nakatani about to get him out their the ref stepped in 😂 This guy should be champion by now 2 times thats the point. He beat ioka 8 4 and in japan and the judges had it the other way. But this fight was way worse they basically gave all the rounds to nakatani. When it was 9 3 The real champ other than gallo at 115 is francisco rodriguez jr. Fake hype japenese fightsrs ioka and nakatani trash can 🥫 fighters Mexico rules 115 with gallo and francisco jr the real champs not those other 2 fakes. All facts 💯 Nakatani was just trying to survive the last rounds and jr hurting him bad walking him down.
@@novrinkov0053 A few years ago, Mexican boxers such as Edwin Valero and Willapon, who were said to be Japanese killers, beat Japanese boxers with a flurry.
@@shidou_nagata7258edwin was from venezuela
Dude called the sound of the punch a “human shotgun”. Most accurate shit I’ve ever heard
Nakatani's offense is beautiful.
Nakatani has incredible boxing skills and serious power.
Lol
Sure, he has.
Special talent, but salty Aussies can’t accept it mate
@@Aih1616 need to seriously work his inside fighting .
@@bensylver5113 you blind or what. First knock down from a brilliant upper cut switching from his usual stance to orthodox.
Congrats Nakatani for winning the fight and also congrats Moloney not to give up the fight until the last. It was scary moment for me and really really hope Andrew's speedy recovery.
I’m not sure he needs to be congratulated for nearly getting killed.
@@badkarmabaroo true, but I highly valued Andrew’s stance to keep going
In Japan, it has been called the next monster for several years. Inoue, Teraj, Nakatani, the fun never stops!
I'm looking forward to his career. He doesn't have the power and sharpness of Inoue, but he's bigger and can fill higher weight classes in the future.
Golden age of Japanese boxing--some truly fearsome fighters coming out of there. Best since Fighting Harada
@@colinhiggins4779 exciting to see!
Everyone evades Nakatani, but Moloney is brave! i hope he gets well
@@TactlessGuy he doesn’t have the power?😂
I think this was us witnessing a star being born. I will be following this kid. Wow, 2 monsters from the land of the rising sun. Gotta love it
Watch out for another southpaw with power and technique in Subaru Murata. He has star quality written all over him.
The funny part is that Inoue also wear golden shorts like Nakatani when he beat Andrew's brother, Jason Moloney. Lol.
I just peeped that too 😂😂
Naoya inoue and junto nakatani are the monster in Japan nobody in Asia(boxers) can beat them, 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
That was nasty. Hardest shot i've seen in a while, and Moloney was tired sheesh. Corner should've went with his first mind and stopped the fight.
Seen AND heard, like a gawdem whiplash
Yeah this Nakatani guy ain't no joke!! That KO was brutal!!! Hope Maloney is OK 😮
It gets worse the more you see it, brutal.
this the kind of fight that takes a year or two off of your life
No lies told Minimum
5-10 years
@@crypto_guapo 5-10 is a bit crazy but 1 or 2 maybe
@@jodggreen9962 no not maybe definetly brother. You see how hard he got hit and then how his head bounced twice off the canvas. Brother sacrificing his life in that ring. Real talk.
Could have taken all his life. Stupid people in his corner, they should have stopped it earlier.
That is one of the nastiest ko’s I’ve seen in a boxing ring, regardless of weight class. The timing on it was just perfect. Seriously I hope Maloney is ok after that. If I had seen that live, I’d be questioning weather he was ever getting up.
Wilder vs Brazealle 2 KO is still my favourite
that was annihilation
Can’t believe this was a title fight. Boxing has so many issues. This was another Rod Salka vs Danny Garcia.
@@jonmolina948 no it wasn't, Andrew Moloney is a top super flyweight who earned this title shot fair and square. What happened here was that Nakatani was truly a cut above the rest, proving that he's the elite talent people thought him to be.
@@YouAintGotNoTegridyBoi There’s 4 major titles with individual top 10 rankings that barely intersect. When they came up with the WBO, everyone was like “WTF?”
I've probably watched a couple thousand fights in my life... that was one of the most perfect punches I've ever seen
Nah, Pac to Hatton was more brutal came in round 2 knockedout cold. Moloney was tired went 12 rounds right?
@@jepoybengco him going 12 rounds is what makes this more brutal lol. Moloney had already taken a ton of damage before this point. could easily be a career ender
@@garrettohyeah7365 💯 thats absolutely a career ending KO. I hope he is able to fully recover but man...
@@jepoybengco Pacquiao literally ended Hatton's career with that punch. Ricky went straight.
@@jepoybengco Yeah, he said ONE of the most perfect punches he’s seen. You can’t disagree with what he’s seen and thinks.
nakatani the japanese assassin, ko of the year. the set up was masterful 🔥
I was screaming TAKE HIM TO THE HOSPITAL *immediately* when that punch connected. Prayers for his health.
He's good c'mon bro
He had a seizure after the knockout
It’s still in the air
@@tmoney4204 bruh he got knocked out so hard his legs were stiff and shaking, and both his eardrums are blown
@@zackkurs9134 I think that was because of Juntos victory lap
Just saw this live. The sound and way Moloney dropped was actually scary.
And turns out Moloney suffered perforated eardrums in both ears.
There's two moloney?
Frrr though and Loma fucking won that's how I know this shit is rigged fuck this boxing shit I'm going back to UFC
@@doyouseereality7233 Jason and Andrew Moloney
The way he was shaking on the mat after was actually scary
I love all Japanese athletes, I’m adding junto to the list
Happy to hear that as a Japanese, please tell me why?
@@YukiYamada-jm2rh the connection to Africa and Japan is historic. Samurai’s say you can’t be a tie Samurai without African blood, the nagas (Nagasaki) were a ancient race , Buddha was Nubian , just mist much history between Japan and Africa , my favorite baseball player growing up was ichiro I wanted to be just like him lol I love dragon ball z since a child lol just so much about Japanese culture. Their philosophy such as kaizen , how they discover their IKIGAI man I can go on and on
@@LilMarvwhat do you mean ties were literally all originally from Africa
@@Grrrrrgfifj I’m aware definitely, but the cultures are different , certain animals are indigenous to Asian that aren’t in Africa and vice versa, their elephants are even different, but I’m aware that Asian ppl evolved from African people . Their called the koishan and they have the oldest traces of human dna on the planet .
Such a weird comment… treating japanese athletes like pokemon or pets….
I was actually afraid he wouldn’t get up. Thank god he’s ok
When I saw his nose I was scared his bones go tin the brain .
When has a fighter ever not got up from a clean one punch KO? Never, is the answer.
Nobody asked you is the answer
As a fellow Aussie. I was cheering for Moloney because he is good and all class. Damn Im dissapointed. Nakatani is too good :(
Moroney is a brave and wonderful boxer. May he be safe.
Moloney is tough. Both the brothers have great heart
I want to give a round of applause to both players who didn't give up until the end!
They are not players, you don’t play boxing.
Players??
Who tf are players?
gamer
I just wanted to say that Moloney is Useless
That KO punch sounded like air being let out of a tire.
It absolutely did!…😂😂😂
He let the air out of a human being. 😬
He popped his noodles 😭
Man, sounded almost as crisp as Sergio Martinez vs Williams knockout. Almost the same way knocked out too.
@@voongnz Pacquiao vs Hatton ko, same level change and left.
Beautiful knockout from the young man Nakatani 👍🏾
Nakatani is great,potential p4p right here.
I can see him cleaning out 115 and 118 and maybe 122 if Inoue and Fulton moves up.
@@cookiebot3369there’s so much talent in 118 i dont see he can clean that up
@@Boss-syntax like who? He beats any one from 115-118
Holy shit that is an insane KO - I thought Naoya Inoue was all Japan had - seems I was wrong This dude could be on the PFP list pretty soon.....And with a bigger frame than Inoue, might be able to take down the Monster
His coach will regret not pulling him out at the end of the 11th
Damn! Thank God the young man got up. He went out on his shield. RESPECT.
Respect a true warrior you when some you lose some as long as wake to see another day 💯
it was kind of sicking to see
@@pinkpuffy2988 it was tbh really grueling ko
@@pinkpuffy2988if it was sickening to see you shouldn’t be watching the sport that’s what I think
Took years of his life
Damn! Brutal KO.
Dame Japan is in a golden era for boxing and sports in general and I love it. Anyway Junto got deceptive power, cheers to boxing fans around the world!!!
💀💀 ref pushed nakatani like he had money on moloney
I see that,look like he on moloney side😂
Junto is gonna be good 😮. Perfect timing. He is incredible
This dude got my attention now. Destructive power, put on a better performance than the main event
His eyes stayed glued to Moloney’s chin the whole time. Nakatani is an absolute assassin.
What a finishing blow... Imagine the corner mens regret.. Hope Moloney is alright come back strong.
He's apparently alright, but his eardrums have been ruptured
Monstrous KO 🤯🤯
Nakatani seemed on top all fight. Amazing Moloney kept hanging in there but wow what a decisive finish!
They should have spared Moloney the damage. Also, that was flashback to Martinez vs Williams 2
Agreed, should have stopped after the 11th. That was brutal and will feel the effects for weeks.

Watched this live and i thought it deserved to be knockout of the year hands down. The way Moloney took that hit, wobble legs and just the devasting impact of that punch was just plain nasty.
Good setup and timing👍🏽
Holy crap, Moloney got blasted and sent into the shadow realm. That moment looked like something straight out of Hajime no Ippo. Very exciting 😄😤
This was a crazy KO. I watched this LIVE
Nakatani is a real beast!! Congratulations ❤🎉
Harada introduce boxing with hard work and sacrifice Inoue and Nakatani Make Him proud!!!🔥🇯🇵⛩️👹
最初の右アッパー、二度目の左ストレート、最後のオーバーハンド気味の左フック。全部違う種類のパンチでダウンを奪っています。 この何でも出来る多才さが中谷選手の最大の強みだと思います。
その中でも左右のアッパーがとにかく上手いし強い
最後のはドラゴンフィッシュブローって言うんだぜー
ジュニアバンタムは無双ですね。次はバンタムですね。カシメロと。
Herrmosa pelea, moloney fuee un guerrero hasta el final, nakatani desplego una destreza fenomenal 🖤 buen boxeo
Amazing fight both put all into this fight. Amazing show by the Japanese warrior. Nakatani
ima fan of his now hopefully he fights one last time at end of 2023 dude is a beast hope he lasts a good while in this violent sport
Moloney brothers are real warriors
A lot of people was sleeping on Nakatani , dudes a beast!
They obviously got put to sleep by bro
hard to get him fights everyone in his division is scared to fight him
@@andrewquasat8462 I'd like to see him drop back to flyweight and go after Bam or Edwards. Or have them move up.
NO! Casimero will make him doubt about his career in boxing
Whitey went down
Holy sheeit! I've never heard a punch that loud and clearly before in front of a packed audience
I've said too many times before, Moloney is fking dirty fighter, still, I don't like seeing figthers get hurt like that. Well deserved win for Nakatani though
Junto and naoya soned these brothers.
Brutal KO!
After Monster and Ioka, Nakatani got next. That's the next great Japanese fighter imo. What a great performance.
@@user-ys2bd5jj4c👎
@@user-ys2bd5jj4c Inoue already fought 3 championship fights in the US and 1 championship fight in the UK. He KOd all 4 opponents. Do some research before commenting.
End of discussion lol
Iola vacated to duck Nakatani BAM Rodriguez has been DUCKING NAKATANI whole his career
Keep Kenshiro Teraji in mind too. He's another rising Japanese boxing star. WBC/WBA Light Flyweight Champion.
Japan is coming out hard !!!! Damn!!! 🔥 was that a punch because it sounded like a car accident!
Today nakatani vs cortes
This was top 3 most brutal KOs I’ve seen in my life
Really great era for Japanese boxing. Ioka and inoue surefire hof. Keeeenshiiiiro is close, kyoguchi still has a chance and now nakatani and the shigella bros are rising. SHEEESH!!
Don’t forget about Andy Hiroka and Jin Saki
Forgot about tanaka he's close
That's the type of KO that ends careers
I hope he is ok, there was no need to send him out, this was on the trainer.
till round 12 he got that power wow
perfect Punch! congratulations JUNTO!
Knockout of the year gonna be hard to top💯
Tank Davis has the knockout of the year stop playing
@@hughjanus2781 nahhh gervonta had a great stoppage, but this knockout was brutal
@@hughjanus2781 no he doesn’t . Not even close. Stop being racially biased
@@hughjanus2781 in your hood maybe
@@hughjanus2781 cope
Reminds me of Gabe Rosado knocking Melikuziev out with a similar style overhand blast.
This is the kind of punch that puts fear and traumatize a fighter for life. Hope the dude can over come it but it takes time to face boxing again.
*THAT’S WHY BAM RODRIGUEZ HAS BEEN DUCKING NAKATANI* Bam moved up to 115 because Nakatani stays at 112 and then once Nakatani moved up to 115,Bam moved down to 112😂
Bam would get flatlined. Hell everybody from 115-118 would end up on the canvas
joshua franco right there
*DELUSIONAL COMMENT*
Lmao 😂 what a weakness huh? Soon nakatani won't be able to make that shit. Nakati is basically fundora at that weight class. So who tf gives af.
@@samuraijose817 don’t ever compare Junto to Fundora 😂
It sounded like a fighter jet passing by full speed.
That was a sick performance start to finish. What a knockout. Best KO I've seen in a long time. Nakatani is the best 115lber in the world.
@Ching Vang he should be at 130 at least
What about Estrada though
No.1 Rodriguez No.2 Estrada No.3 Chocolatito No.4 Rungvisai No.5 Martirez He is not in the top 5🤗
@clarenceperocho6422 Estrada is number one. Bam is on the up, but he's not top dog yet. Nakatani I rank at 4.
@@clarenceperocho6422 Bam fights at 112 now and Rungvisai’s been washed
hats off to Moloney- like in the Haney /Lomo fight size reach and youth when combined with great talent and conditioning as well as poise are simply too much for the smaller older fighter to overcome.Nakatani and Haney are exceptionally good especially being so young. both Lomo and Moloney are a credit to boxing. THANKS to each fighter for displaying such dedication and heart.
Well done young man 💪
He’s next up. Him and Inoue are gonna run the lower weights. Trust💯
This knockout was vicious! 😮
To think that this could have been avoided... But you never know, literally last seconds of the fight
He was going to lose in decision anyway. He was getting beat all fight.
Not surprised , he's been on the canvass many times
Bam Rodriguez left the chat* He moved up because Nakatani was 112 and once he moved up to 115,Bam moved down to 112 to avoid Nakatani😂he has been ducking Nakatani whole his career
@@user-bbuzzi for real?
Seriously he was losing anyway bro just stop the fight, it's not your night.
Was glad i saw this live 😁
What a good hiding - lovely ko to finish a twelve round beating
Hope moloney is ok man
Guys lying on the floor pulpatating Commentator: "hey listen to this" 😂
Now that's a knockout n great footwork dude was walking into punches all night 🌃
One of the most devastating k.o's ive ever seen
Nakatani is nice!!! Him and inoue are really talented. Something going on over there in Japan. Them dudes have skills
Nakatani just put the world on notice
Nakatani is the next naoya inoue he will dominate the boxing world someday.
he is good but need to work on that inside game and not crafty enought . Upper cuts upper cuts uppercuts will not cu tit .
Seeing this live was crazy
This Japanese bloke is the real deal. Hope Maloney is alright though and comes back stronger
Nakatani is one of the best rest now.. WOW.. GG
Brutal!
Maloney will never be the same after this ko, good young fighter but boxing is a brutal business.
jason moloney can skip now like a kangaroo away from Knockoutani
thanks TR Japans rising son has great set up and timing, hope Moloney is OK
great fight!!
I JUST WATCHED THIS. you guys are fast damn😂 11 minutes ago.
Man between junto Nakatani and inoue these Japanese fighters are getting scary!
Kosei Tanaka, the Shigeoka bros, the legend that is Kazuto Ioka and Kenshiro Teraji are all sharks swimming about in the champions pool of boxing currently. Japan is stacked with talent indeed.
@@YouAintGotNoTegridyBoi and now Tenshin is a pro boxer too
JUNTO IS A BEAST! 🔥🔥🔥🏆 GREAT FU*KING BOXING! 👏👏👏
SATISFYING KNOCK OUT. Good job.more of this soon.please.hahah
i turned the tv on litreally seconds before this happened it was so great
Moloney kept charging in with his head, that's why Naka-ko got cut. It was a very good fight. I'm a Nakatani fan now. I had heard of him but first time i got the chance to see him.
that overhand is deadly bruh
junto's uppercuts are dangerous. also watch his fight with angel acosta also brutal. my heart breaks when moloney received so much damage.
😮😯😲Impactante!😌 Felicidades Guerrero 💪👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Pensamiento aleatorio
