Two major fights, same day, different time zones. In just a matter of hours, Emanuel Navarrete vs. Charly Suarez, along with seven undercard bouts, and Nico Ali Walsh vs. Ebenezer Sowah, with three supporting fights, are set to unfold. Navarrete will be making the fourth defense of his WBO World Junior Lightweight Championship, a title he claimed in February 2023 with a win over Liam Wilson. He’s held the belt for 2 years, 3 months, and 7 days. While both fighters have already cleared the official weigh-in with no significant weight advantage, the real question lies in how Navarrete will fare against an undefeated and mandatory challenger like Suarez.
With the stage set and anticipation high, here’s everything you need to know about the event.
