The Story in 60 Seconds

Former world champion Tim Bradley has picked O’Shaquie Foster to defeat Emanuel Navarrete when the two meet on October 24 in San Antonio with three super featherweight titles on the line. However, Bradley warned that Foster cannot rely strictly on defense and must actively pressure his opponent rather than waiting for counterpunches against Navarrete's high-volume, unorthodox assault.

Bradley emphasized that Foster must target Navarrete's midsection and force him onto his back foot early in the fight. He cautioned that retreating into a defensive shell risks losing decisions in front of a pro-Navarrete crowd, referencing Foster's previous controversial decision loss to Robson Conceicao.
