Navarrete, known as "Vaquero," comes into this fight with some momentum. He knocked out Oscar Valdez in his last fight back in December. Before that, he had a tough time, losing a close and controversial fight to Denys Berinchyk. The Mexican fighter has made good money in his career, once earning over $2 million for a fight against Valdez.
On the other side of the ring, we've got Charly Suarez from the Philippines. He's got a perfect record so far with 18 wins and no losses. Ten of those wins came by knockout. In his last fight, Suarez beat Jorge Castañeda by TKO.
Both fighters have a lot to gain from this match. There's the title belt up for grabs, of course. But there's also a good chunk of change on the line. While we don't know the exact numbers, it looks like Navarrete could make around one and a half million dollars. For Suarez, this could be his biggest payday yet, with estimates around $800,000.
The fight promises to be action-packed. Both guys have shown they can finish fights early, so fans can expect some fireworks in the ring.
Navarrete's had some ups and downs lately. He made big money fighting Valdez the first time, but then had some tough fights against Robson Conceicao and Berinchyk. Now, after his recent knockout win, he's looking to keep that momentum going.
Suarez, on the other hand, is riding high with his undefeated record. He'll be looking to keep that streak alive and maybe make a name for himself on the bigger stage.
Come May 10, we'll see who comes out on top in what should be an exciting night of boxing in San Diego.
