Three-division world champion Emanuel “Vaquero” Navarrete (37-1, 31 KOs) is ready for an all-Mexican war. Navarrete puts his WBO junior lightweight world title on the line against former two-division world champion Oscar Valdez (31-1, 23 KOs) on Saturday, August 12, at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona.
After a recent training session at The BXNG Club in San Diego, this is what Navarrete said:
“The training camp has been intense. The preparation was very tough. Fortunately, we were able to carry it out quite well. I had always done things in a conventional way, but now we have included a physical trainer, Francisco Javier Orozco. This fight with Valdez merited that change, and I will come into this fight much better physically.”
“Winning this fight would boost my career significantly. Personally, I would feel complete. What has been missing in my career is precisely a victory against someone like Valdez. It would fill me with pride to be part of such an iconic fight between Mexicans and come out victorious.”
“People know that I throw a lot of punches and that I’m always in attractive fights. Now, with Valdez, I believe it will be twice as spectacular. Valdez is a fighter who doesn’t hold back. We always see him moving forward and throwing punches.”
“He says he’s going to knock my head off, but let’s see whose head comes off first. Let’s see what Valdez has to offer, and let’s see how much he can endure and how much I can endure, too.”
