Navarrete v Valdez Preview

Navarrete will face Valdez at the Footprint Centre in Phoenix, Arizona, on December 8th 2024. This will be Navarrete’s third defence of his crown and his second fight against Valdez, following his decision win back in August 2023 over his countryman.

Navarrete’s WBO junior lightweight belt will be on the line, and Valdez will be a formidable opponent in this rematch. Valdez was undefeated before his defeat to Shakur Stevenson in April 2022, and the former Mexican Olympic fighter has a lot to prove in this hotly-anticipated rematch.

Navarrete’s 38-2-1 record speaks for itself, but “El Vaquero” is still reeling from his defeat to Denys Berinchyk, forcing him to vacate his WBO lightweight belt. Valdez, at 32-2, will see this fight as a shot at revenge and the perfect opportunity to secure the WBO junior lightweight belt.

Previous Meetings

Navarrete’s power was the difference between the two fighters, securing scores of 116-112, 118-110, and 119-109 to win the fight.

Undercard: Espinoza v Ramirez

Top-billing on the glittering Navarrete v Valdez undercard is Rafael Espinoza v Robeisy Ramirez in another rematch. Espinoza (25,0), with 21 KO wins, produced a stunning majority decision win against two-time Olympic champion Ramirez for an upset victory that few saw coming.

Despite being floored by Ramirez in the fifth round, Espinoza recovered to turn the fight in his favour, landing almost 1,000 punches on the night. The two have mutual respect, and the rematch is almost as hotly anticipated as the main event between Navarrete and Valdez.
