Emanuel Navarrete faces Oscar Valdez on August 12 on ESPN in Glendale, Arizona


Via Knitting Ambrosio: Oscar Valdez and Emanuel Navarrete meet on August 12 in the main event on ESPN in a fight that has long been discussed. This is a 50-50 toss that can result in either of you being able to handle the other’s power.

They should have fought last year, but Valdez was injured in the camp and the fight never took place. Instead, Valdez fought Shakur Stevenson and lost a one-way decision.

Two-time Olympic champion Valdez has competed professionally against opponents better than Navarrete, but he hasn’t won many world titles across divisions.

Navarrete was well maneuvered by Top Rank, staying away from dangerous fighters who could defeat him to help him win three championships. Surprisingly, Top Rank finally brought Navarrete in with such a talented fighter after all these years. This has only one meaning.

They realized after his last fight with Liam Wilson that Navarrete was over, and if they didn’t let him fight one of their own, he would lose his WBO belt to another boxer from another company. advertise.

After Shakur vacated the WBO belt, Navarrete rose from 126th to win the vacant belt. He chose to wait until after Shakur vacated the title before fighting for it. Given Stevenson’s talent, it’s understandable that Navareete had a strategy to avoid that fight.

Valdez (31-1, 23 KOs), returned to the ring after a year off to beat Adam’ Blue Nose Lopez last month.

Mike Coppinger report that the match would take place at the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona.

Navarrete (37-1, 31 KOs) will have his WBO super featherweight title at stake. Despite being much younger at 28, Navarrete looked frail and aged last February during his battle against Liam Wilson.

Navarrete was uncomfortable fighting at 130 from the start and looked like a super bantamweight in appearance. Wilson took out Navarrete in the fourth round and could have stopped him if Emanuel hadn’t spewed his shot.

More experienced umpires will not stop the action when a boxer spits out their mouthpiece the moment they are injured because it is a trick used to buy time for them to recover. In this situation, referee Chris Flores stopped the action and let Navarrete re-plug his mouthpiece.

If Navarrete does the same, Valdez will knock him out, and it doesn’t matter how many times he spits up. Valdez will definitely finish him off.
