Nasukawa Defeats Moloney in an Epic Showdown

On February 24 in Tokyo, Japan, Tenshin Nasukawa (6-0, 2 KOs) took another step toward title contention with a commanding unanimous decision victory over Australia's Jason Moloney (27-4, 19 KOs) in a bantamweight clash (118 lbs / 53.5 kg).

The judges scored the bout in favor of Nasukawa: two cards of 97-93 and one of 98-92.

This was Nasukawa’s first fight of 2025 after an impressive 2024 campaign, where he secured three victories—two by stoppage and one by decision.

For Moloney, it was another setback in Japan. In his previous outing, he also lost by unanimous decision to Yoshiki Takei, another former kickboxer, just like Nasukawa.
