The WBO Super Featherweight Champion Emanuel Navarrete insisted after the Saturday night’s fight against Charly Suarez that his fight was caused by a ‘head button’ by the end of the battle in sixth place, and that he still has to do “Decision” Whether he should give him a re -broadcast. Top ranking vice president Carl Moretti said late last night that a ‘rematch’ is after the repetition showed a punch of Suarez caused the cut. Navarrete (40-2-1, 32 COs) may have other ideas because he does not connect to the re-broadcast. He says he should ‘Take a decision.‘
The cut caused the ultimate stop of the fight at the beginning of the eighth round. The doctor was advised that the fight was stopped after examining the cut of the left eye of Navarrete. It didn’t look like a bad cut compared to the one Tyson Fury suffered in his fight against Otto Wallin in September 2019. Fury was severely cut over his right eye in the third place, but the doctor who was not done did not advise to stop it.
Rematch evasion?
Fans have a real problem with the scoring. The judges gave it to Navarrete, despite losing five of the seven rounds. They scored it 78-75, 77-76 and 77-76. What also made fans angry is the judges who give seven rounds to Navarrete, who were easily the best round of the fight around Suarez. He had Emanuel in serious trouble in that round.
Navarrete seems to be able to win the victory and look at another battle, rather than having Suarez a second chance. Suarez is too well conditioned and is fighting a fast pace for the limp and faded Navarrete to hit him in a rematch without another bizarre situation saving him. Top Rank placed a cut of one of Navarrete’s earlier battles against Isaac Dogboe from 2018.
It looked like a completely different fighter. Navarrete was thin, faster and more agile. He did not deteriorate, looking at him who saw fans last night. He is very old for a 30-year-old, like someone closer to 40. What kind of lifestyle lived Navarrete outside the ring? His fighting could not have done this to him because he did not fight one of the fighters at the elite level during his career.
Most of his matches were against crop fighters or guys at the level. He never fought talents such as Rafael Espinoza, Lamont Roach, Gervonta Davis, Eduardo ‘Sugar’ Nunez or O’Shaqui Foster. Navarrete is protected.
Words of a reluctant champion
“It’s a little premature. I have a suspension for two months (due to the cut). I have to think well, decide, see what’s coming, and then we’ll make a decision, ‘said Emanuel Navarrete to the media When asked if he would give Charly Suarez a re -broadcast after the controversial time of last Saturday.
“Unfortunately, ended it as it did Due to the head buttonBut I felt good. It was difficult with the results of the fight due to the head. I hurt him to the head and the body. Maybe it gave me the benefit. I didn’t think I would lose. ‘
