Weighing the results

– Emanuel Navarrete 130 vs. Charly Suarez 129.9
– Raymond Muratalla 134.4 vs. Zaur Abdullaev 134.6

In the weights of the Raymond Muratalla (22-0, 17 KO) and Zaur Abdullaev (20-1, 12 KO) coefficients, they successfully weighed their 12-round fight for the transient IBF title. The winner of this fight can be raised to the full status of the IBF championship, or fight the current champion, Vasily Lomachenko, if he decides to come back from injury.

“Charly Suarez, he is definitely a super hazardous warrior. His record is 18-0 with 10 knockouts,” said Bruce Carrington to Boxing boxingResponding to Charley Suarez and Emanuel Navarrete. “A few guys were able to solve the puzzle of Navarrete. Let’s see what Charly Suarez is able to do Navarrete.

Discussion about discipline

It is not so surprising that Navarrete has not hit, because for some time he has been trying to achieve a limit of 130 pounds. His metatarsus looked supple, which suggests that they eat well between the fights. He probably enjoyed the money he earned over the years, and now he pays the price when his problems fall.

“I will win this fight no matter what happens,” said Suarez, when asked about his reaction to the missing Navarrete weight. “This is my opportunity. It is once in my life and I will do my best. I am excited. I prayed for many months and this is it. This matter came to me now.”

After Devin Haney, Ryan Garcia, Canelo Alvarez and others did not fulfill last weekend, fighting fans do not have to wait long for more on paper, with thrilling duels in various time zones in California, Florida, England, Africa and Japan.

ESPN spreads the best card and evaluates all significant fights this weekend.

1. Anthony Cacace vs. Leigh Wood – Junior Lightweight Fight (Dazn, Saturday at 14:00 et)

After the last fight, Wood said that he wanted to end his career with the fight for the title of Master in the city, the House of the English Club Premier League Nottingham Forest.

None of these wishes will be fulfilled on Saturday for a 36-year-old, but a slight younger fight is still significant. Wood (28-3, 17 KO) is at least boxing in front of family fans of cities in Nottingham, in the internal arena, where Carl Froch carved his excellent career in Super Middle Wweight.

Cacace (23-1, 8 KO) from Belfast in Northern Ireland resigned from the IBF world, which he won against Joe Cordin in May 2024 to make it happen. And despite the fact that there were no recognized titles on the line, this fight sees the two best operators of this division.

Wood was in the first place in a featherweight, before he gave up the WBA belt after winning in the seventh round over Josh Warrington in October 2023. But Wood’s career got stuck since then, while Cacace fought in Saudi Arabia, and the victory of the detention over Cordina raises his career at the highest level.

Cacace, also 36, was more dynamic (he also defeated Warrington, winning a unanimous decision in September) and has significant growth and achievements. He has a good reason to be confident as No. 2 ESPN at Junior Lightweight, entering this fight. But what if Wood does not show a trace of a long release during the first output at the level of 130 pounds, inspired by his home fans to extend his career? It would be another fairy -tale episode in Wood’s career, which still raises dramatic surprises.

The winner of this fight would be a natural opponent of the winner of the Saturday fight Emanuel Navarrete vs. Charly Suarez WBO.

2. Emanuel Navarrete vs. Charly Suarez – Junior Lightweight Title Fight (ESPN/ESPN+, Saturday at 22:00 ET)

Emanuel Navarrete knocking Oscar Valdez

Emanuel Navarrete claims that the victory over the Oscar Valdez in a rematch with a perilous shot.

Navarrete, a world champion with three divisions, looked sensational during the last exit, when he crushed Oscar Valdez with a shot to the liver in a rematch in December. In this form, a Mexican warrior is mandatory.

Navarrete (39-2-1, 32) defends his lithe WBO belt against the Sanzez Philippines in San Diego on Saturday, and a good performance can strengthen his place at the top of the 130-pound division. Navarrete was ruthless compared to Valdez, raising it three times before stopping, and another stunning display could convince him to try another crack in a lithe division. Navarrete lost his divided decision for Denys Berinchyk, which is hard for the lithe belt WBO in May 2024, but he could be tempted to continue to continue the more lucrative fights in lightweight lithe, if he defeated Suarez (18-0, 10 KO). It is also possible to fight the title of union with the WBC Master O’Shaquie Foster for Navarrete, if he wants to stay at the age of 130.

3. Erickson Lubin vs. Ardreal Holmes Jr. – eliminator of the Junior medium weight title (Probox TV, Saturday at 18:00 et)

This is a clash of two Southpaws who desperately have to win this eliminator of the IBF medium weight title.

Lubin (26-2, 18 KO), from Orlando in Florida, has experience, but he takes place from a long release: he has not fought from September 2023, when he won the unanimous decision about Jesus Ramos, due to a hand injury delaying his return. Holmes (17-0, 6 KO), with Flint, Michigan, is less experienced, but has impetus after registering three wins in 2024.

Lubin can be thrilling and was involved in an thrilling fight with Sebastian Fundor three years ago. The winner of the Saturday fight in Kissimmee in Florida is progressing in the fight with the Bakhram Master Murtazaliev champion.

4. Fernando Martinez vs. Kazuto Iok – fight for the title Junior Bantameight on Sunday

After the relentless fire of the fire in July last year, Martinez and Iok meet again on Sunday in Tokyo and more are expected of the same. Martinez (17-0, 9 KO) won a unanimous decision after he won Iok in their struggle with the title of unification in Japan.

How much this fight took a 36-year-old Iok will determine whether it can take revenge and win the title of world champion in the third weight class.

Iok (31-3-1, 16 KO), from Japan, began his career 16 years ago and will have to undo years to keep up with a 33-year-old WBA master from Argentina.

This rematch has been delayed since December, after Martinez withdrew with the disease, but it is worth waiting.

5. Souleysteme Cissokho vs. Egidijus Kavaliauskas – WBC Wytreight Walteight Eliminator on Saturday

Equatorial Guinea, place of Saturday’s fight, is 2000 miles from Senegal, where Cissokho was born (17-0, 9 KO). But it will still look like a fight to return home. He will make a dream of boxing in Africa when he faces Kavaliauskas (24-2-1, 19 KO) at the Eliminator of the WBC welterweight title in the capital of Malabo.

Cissokho, who has the title shot, is based in Paris, but trains in California with Virgil Hunter. If he wins, he will have this opportunity and time in the spotlight.

The injury delayed the fight, and the 18-month absence of the ring will be Cissokho’s concern, which will face a perilous hit in California Kavaliauskas.

But Kavaliauskas was detained twice that he increased the level (by Vergil Ortiz in 2021 and Terenka Crawford in 2019), and this looks like a golden opportunity for an knowledgeable boxer, like Cissokho to seal the great fight for later.

Anthony Cacace (23-1, 8 KO) and former super feather champion in IBO and former two-time WBA champion 126-LB Leigh Wood (28-3, 17 KO) brought a importance today during Friday weighing for their Heliner on Saturday, May 10. Cacace vs. Wood will be shown live on Dazn from Nottingham Arena in Nottingham.

(Loan: Leigh Dawney/Queensberry)

It is surprising little noise About the fight against cocoa wood from fans, perhaps because of the disappointing promotion of the event. Compared to other fights, there was not much pressure to try to sell this scrap at the national level.

Weighing the results

Anthony Cacace 129.8 vs. Leigh Wood 129.8

This is the only partial fight on the card that will interest fans from outside Great Britain. Some other weights on the card are as follows:

Liam Davies 125.2 vs. Kurt Walker 125.4
Owen Cooper 145.7 vs. Chris Congo 146.7
Sam noakes 141lbs 7 vs. Patrik Balaz 141

Complex Cacace opportunity

Part of the problem is that the 36-year-old Cacace lost a great opportunity to find out on the world stage when he left his title IBF Super Feather Wweight after grasping him with Joe Cordina in May in May in a nervous technical knockout in Riyadh.

Instead of defending your IBF belt against his mandatory contender Eduardo “Sugar” NúñezCacace left the belt to shine a better paid fight against the faded Josh Warrington. Cacace won, but he looked mediocre.

Even if Cacace lost this fight with Nunez, he would still be wanted for the Lucrative national clashes with Warrington and Leigh Wood. It was a mistake from Cacace because he returned to an undetectable warrior, who he once was before nervous of Cordina.

The way he acted against Warrington is perhaps good that he did not pass the fight against “Sugar” Nunez (27-1, 27 KO), because he would probably pristine his clock through a tough Mexican. Despite this, it looked bad that Cacace gave up IBF instead of defending him against Nunez to face over-the-Hill Warrington.

Title implications

If Cacace wins on Saturday, he should lend a hand him get closer to the title of World Champion in 130, if this is a high goal. However, wood is seen as washed by fans. So Cacace will not get too much from victory over him. If Anthony wants a quick shot from the world, he has to face the pretender Raymond Ford.

If Cacace defeated Ford, he would have a quick chance for another title. Unfortunately, I don’t think he even dared to take this fight. If Cacace does not fight Nunez, he certainly will not want to get tangled with Ford.
