Navarrete vs Foster preview: Emanuel Navarrete faces O’Shaquie Foster in an eagerly-anticipated, super featherweight title unification clash in Texas on Saturday. Check out our Navarrete vs Foster prediction below.
Navarrete puts his WBO and IBF crowns on the line. Meanwhile, Foster’s WBC title is at stake at the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, live on DAZN.
Three-division champion, Navarrete is looking to close in on a shot at undisputed glory.
The Mexican became unified 130 pound champion in February with an 11th round stoppage over countryman Eduardo Nunez. The 31-year-old ripped away Nunez’s IBF belt in the process.
Meanwhile, Foster looks to become a unified champion for the first time in his career.
Indeed, the American became a three-time WBC super featherweight titlist when he overcame Raymond Ford in May.
Navarrete vs Foster prediction: This has all the makings of a classic encounter. Navarrete’s pressure could overwhelm Foster. But, I expect Foster to grind out a decision win.
Gonzalez faces Vazquez
Elsewhere on the Navarrete vs Foster preview, Albert Gonzalez takes a step-up in opposition when he tackles two-time world title challenger Edward Vazquez.
Gonzalez, who is undefeated in 18 professional fights, has ended his last four bouts by stoppage.
While, Vazquez came up short in world title bids against Joe Cordina and Rafael Espinoza respectively.
Prediction: Gonzalez can win on points.
