The Cowboy and The King will battle for the WBO belt in the super featherweight division. The fight was initially scheduled for February 3rd, but shortly after the announcement, news of The King's injury surfaced. The Cowboy didn't waste any time and captured the WBO title at 59 kg by knocking out Australian Liam Wilson. Previously, he held similar titles in the 55.3 kg and 57.2 kg categories, with a total of eight successful defenses. His opponent secured a unanimous decision victory over American Adam Lopez in May.

Watch the online fight between Emanuel Navarrete and Oscar Valdez, as they step into the ring in Glendale, Arizona. Earlier this year, The Cowboy relinquished the super featherweight belt to continue his career in the next division. Martinez has fought in thirty-eight professional matches, emerging victorious in thirty-seven, with thirty-one of them ending by knockout.

Hailing from San Juan Zitlaltepec, Martinez stated that the only innovation in his training camp was the inclusion of a physical conditioning coach. He admitted that defeating The King would provide him with a sense of fulfillment. Watch the online confrontation between Emanuel Navarrete and Óscar Valdez.

Despite being four years older, Oscar has participated in six fewer matches. Thirty-two-year-old Rafael Fierro (part of full name) has secured thirty-one victories (23 KOs) and suffered a loss to Shakur Stevenson in the spring of 2022, relinquishing the WBC title in the 59 kg category. Valdez described his opponent's style as clumsy. The King noted the difficulty in finding a suitable sparring partner, as Emanuel's boxing is atypical, characterized by constant straight punches.

According to Valdez, he enjoyed training around Lake Tahoe, as the isolation, tranquility, and nature helped him relax and focus. In a statement to Fightnews, the athlete declared that he is more motivated for this upcoming match than ever before. Watch the showdown between Emanuel Navarrete and Óscar Valdez online.
