Preview :
Navarrete vs. Baez 8/20/22 will defend his legacy against Eduardo Baez, who turned professional in 2013 and has been dominating his opponents up until a recent bout with Raeese Aleem. He suffered just his second career defeat by majority decision, but Baez has now recovered, defeating Jose Enrique Vivas by decision in March.
Baez, who is 5’9″, will be taller than his opponent but will lose the reach encounter with his opponent’s 72″ reach, a 2″ advantage over him. Baez, who is currently the #7 WBO featherweight contender, recently made the transition from junior featherweight to featherweight and will have the toughest fight of his career during the weekend.
The heavy favorite Navarette won the vacant WBO featherweight title in October 2020 against Ruben Villa, after capturing the WBO junior-featherweight title in December 2018, and has now successfully defended it five times. Since then, the champ has successfully defended it twice against Christopher Diaz and Joet Gonzalez, with the latest victory coming in November.
It’s also worth noting that Navarrete is a heavy caliber fighter, because apart from carrying the WBO junior-featherweight, he has an impressive record of 35 victories, demonstrating that he is one of the best fighters in the world. Navarrete is also a knockout specialist, winning 29 of his 36 professional fights by KO/TKO, a feat he hopes to duplicate on Saturday at Pechanga Arena.
