02:51here is the acclaimed three-division world champion, the reigning and defending WBO junior lightweight champion of the world,
03:01introducing Emanuel El Vaquero Navarrete.
03:16Once again, our referee in charge, Edward Coyantes, now to give instructions.
03:20Here and above is a legal blow, here and above is a legal blow, okay?
03:30Here and above is a legal blow, okay?
03:44Obey my commands and protect yourself at all times.
03:49Touch gloves, good luck.
03:50Excellent mechanics from Edward Coyantes with the excellent mechanics in terms of determining what is going to be considered a low blow.
03:59And Tim, we talk about becoming a world champion, changing your life.
04:03When you're a member of the Filipino army, as is the case with Charlie Suarez,
04:07a win in a world title fight means that you also get a promotion.
04:12So it's not just a promotion as a world champion, it really changes your life in the Philippine army.
04:19For Emanuel Navarrete, this is his fourth world title defense, and Suarez is on him early on here in San Diego.
04:28There's Navarrete testing the Filipino.
04:31It looks like Navarrete, look at his body compared to Suarez.
04:41He looks like he's in a completely different weight class than Suarez.
04:45That's just going to add more, more umph on his punches.
04:52You know what I like so far, Suarez coming out, dictating the pace, pushing Navarrete backwards,
04:59showing him that I'm here to fight.
05:02Surprising Navarrete.
05:03Navarrete likes to be the boss.
05:06Testing that tank early, and you see Navarrete with those looping shots,
05:09and just how unorthodox he is and how open he is for a counterpunch.
05:13There's a straight right hand from Navarrete landing on the chin of Suarez.
05:18Early chin check from the Mexican champion.
05:20See, and Suarez, if he steps straight back, he's going to get followed out.
05:24What Suarez has to do is he has to step in, tuck, and get Arnito's shots.
05:29As long as he stays outside like that, and he allows Navarrete to march forward like that,
05:33he's going to have problems early on.
05:36Vic, we're all so worried about Navarrete's weight that he said,
05:39I'm disappointed you guys didn't even ask me about my new mustache.
05:42Ooh, that nose is already busted right there, starting to bleed.
05:45Is that straight right?
05:47Yeah, but see, what Suarez has to do, he has to come forward.
05:50He has to push Navarrete back.
05:52He has to make him.
05:55Ooh, another uppercut.
05:56What about Navarrete?
06:00Nice counter.
06:01One-two from, or two-one from Suarez.
06:03Again, he has to force him back because he has to make Navarrete again.
06:07He has footwork issues, right?
06:08You see how he gets out of position?
06:10It's the perfect time to attack him.
06:12He's dangerous when he's coming forward like this, Navarrete is.
06:16Nice counter from Navarrete.
06:18Nice uppercut again from Navarrete.
06:21High guard.
06:22And Suarez is finding out what the championship level looks like against El Vaquero.
06:33Ooh, nice one-two.
06:34Buckles the legs.
06:35He's getting overpowered.
06:36But Suarez early in round one.
06:37He's getting overpowered.
06:38Suarez is getting overpowered and overwhelmed by these heavy shots, Navarrete.
06:43No knockdowns so far tonight.
06:46Could this be the fight where it happens?
06:50There is Charlie Suarez trying to earn the respect of the champion.
06:56Every time he gets out and he gets space like that, it's a bad, that's a bad look for Suarez.
07:02Standing up with a high guard.
07:04You hear the chance of Mexico-Mexico as Navarrete goes to the body.
07:12Good first round here in San Diego.
07:25No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
07:32No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
07:35Tapando la salida.
07:39¿Cómo sientes?
07:46¿Cómo se siente?
07:50Yo estoy en el esto, ahí es.
07:53Es mejor, es mejor tú ya.
08:01Cendele, you have to take advantage of it.
08:19In the corner, they were telling Emmanuel Navarrete,
08:22your jab is better than his.
08:25First opponent with a longer reach that Navarrete is facing so far, Tim.
08:29Shoot.
08:30You're fooling me.
08:32It looked like Navarrete got the longer arms.
08:34As you can see, one-two straight down the middle.
08:37Catching Suarez cleanly using that reach.
08:40And another one buckling the legs of Suarez.
08:44Then breaking through that high guard early on is Navarrete.
08:48Look, when Navarrete's coming forward, he's dangerous.
08:50I'm telling you, when he gets off on that angle
08:52and he starts whipping those left hooks and uppercuts,
08:55I think Suarez is a lot safer if he's coming forward.
08:59Big swing in the odds at the start of the fight.
09:03Navarrete minus 340, now minus 1600.
09:06Again, Suarez is getting distance when he don't need to get distance.
09:10What he need to do is he needs to step on the inside with Navarrete.
09:14Step on the inside, bang him downstairs.
09:17Keep pushing him back.
09:18Left hook from Suarez.
09:19Again, take advantage of that poor footwork of Navarrete.
09:24And even if it doesn't land as hard, you make it look like it hurt him
09:29because his legs buckled going backwards.
09:31Yes.
09:32Poor positioning from Navarrete, but that's what makes him dangerous.
09:38Look at how he's able to land from that long range.
09:41That was a chopping left behind the head from Suarez.
09:44That was a chopping left behind the head from Suarez.
09:48OK.
09:49OK.
09:50Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
09:51Hey.
09:52Hold it.
09:53OK, mire.
09:54You turn your head as well, so be careful.
09:55So that's what happens.
09:56You know, the fish was down.
09:57If you're turning into the punch, turning away from the punch and it lands behind, it's
10:09fair.
10:10It's fair game.
10:11Tim, you talked about something interesting about how when you make that extra push to
10:20weight.
10:21Whoa.
10:22How the liquid in your brain is not the same.
10:23Yes.
10:24That blew it in.
10:25So here, you see Navarrete coming at Suarez.
10:30Beautiful offense here from Navarrete.
10:33The crowd is on its feet in San Diego, California.
10:36And there's that long, wild uppercut from Navarrete.
10:39Suarez says, I'm going to keep it tight.
10:41And you see that heart coming from Suarez as well.
10:43But man, one of those shots are going to get in.
10:45And it's going to do some serious damage on Suarez.
10:48He needs to be careful.
10:49Don't push.
10:50Don't push.
10:51Don't push.
10:52Nice left hook there from Suarez as Navarrete dipped into it.
11:05Ten seconds.
11:06Ten seconds.
11:07Stop.
11:08Stop.
11:09Go back.
11:10Go back.
11:11Two rounds in the books here in San Diego.
11:16Man, it's a fight.
11:17This is championship boxing for top right boxing on ESPN.
11:19It's a fight.
11:20It's a fight.
11:21It's a fight.
11:22It's a fight.
11:23It's a fight.
11:24It's a fight.
11:28Good time.
11:29Philio Jan job 3,0age man.
11:30Go back.
11:31Go back.
11:32Come.
11:33Go back.
11:34Get one job.
11:35Other человека dig, it's a side and baby.
11:37You're gonna have this in space.
11:38He'll have this attacks.
11:39To front.
11:40I mean, I don't need toят him out of this.
11:41To front seat if he'll have this right hand.
11:45The job is here.
11:48The jobный job.
11:49And here it's here.
11:50The job is here.
11:51The job is here.
11:53The job is here.
11:54It's the job that you have to get here.
11:56The job is here.
11:57How far?
11:58Yeah.
11:59Because you're about to go right here.
12:01Yeah.
12:01If she sees the job.
12:03She's ready.
12:04So, we're ready.
12:12Okay.
12:13One with jab, and one with the best on the right.
12:27Round three of our WBO Junior Lightweight World Title
12:30fight, the champion Emanuel Navarrete
12:32against Charlie Suarez, the number one contender.
12:35Leonardo Suarez alongside the Hall of Famer,
12:37Timothy Bradley, and Mark Kriegel
12:39working the corners for us tonight.
12:43Momentum shift there in the second round
12:46in favor of Suarez, Tim.
12:50Again, coming forward, that's where he's going to be able
12:52to dominate this fight.
12:53He has to push Navarrete backwards.
12:55Still got to be cautious, however.
12:58He's a lot better suited coming forward
13:00because once Navarrete gets that momentum coming forward,
13:02he takes a small little angle and throws his uppercuts.
13:05He's going to split that guard, that high guard of Suarez.
13:09Suarez doing exactly what I saw in the film, film study.
13:13Taking the right?
13:14No, not taking the right.
13:15Whoa, I did see that.
13:17I did see that, too.
13:18And also saw left hook and landing as well.
13:20But again, taking advantage of the poor footwork of Navarrete.
13:25And I'm glad he's getting off to the side now.
13:27Navarrete coming forward, trying to pull rush Suarez.
13:32He's trying to out-muscle.
13:33And you talked about the angles that Suarez was able to give
13:36thanks to his footwork and Olympic pedigree against Navarrete.
13:41That's what was his demise against Dennis Berencher.
13:45Yes.
13:47Okay, stop.
13:48Step back.
13:49Step back.
13:49Step back.
13:49And if I'm in Suarez's corner, I'm telling him,
13:51hey, man, hit that body.
13:53He had a tough weight cut.
13:55Hit that body.
13:57Drain that gas tank.
13:58Hey, stop that back.
14:03Navarrete with a 1-2 but falling in, Tim.
14:06Yeah, he is.
14:08Navarrete coming forward.
14:09He want the knockout.
14:10He ain't trying to go 12 rounds a night.
14:12Oh, absolutely not.
14:14He's trying to get it.
14:14He's trying to go home thoroughly.
14:16That's a nice overhand right from Vaquero.
14:18You hear the crowd.
14:23Nice right hand from Navarrete as well.
14:26He's so unorthodox.
14:29Doesn't mind missing because he knows eventually he's going to pop me with something like that
14:33at the uppercut.
14:34Great job in the corner of Charlie Suarez with that nosebleed.
14:42Without that pressure from Navarrete.
14:47You can just see the determination on Suarez's face.
14:50Oh, he's swinging with all his might with that left foot.
14:53My gosh.
14:54And he did go downstairs first.
14:58Suarez has only been down once in his career from a jab from Coria.
15:04Lead right from Navarrete here.
15:07But he wasn't really hurt by that.
15:09By that jab from Coria.
15:11Louis Coria.
15:14Suarez starting to answer Navarrete.
15:16Meet him in the middle.
15:16That's another shot to the back of the head from Suarez.
15:19And the referee admonishes him on that.
15:25Good flurry.
15:27Good defense from Manuel Navarrete.
15:28Yes, it is.
15:29Let's listen to his cousin, Pedro Navarrete Jr. in his corner.
15:39Settle in.
15:39What's he doing here?
15:40Yes, yes, tranquilo.
15:42Está bien.
15:42Take your time.
15:43Está bien.
15:43Hay que empezar a tirar abajo.
15:45We got to start going to the body.
15:47Feint.
15:47And then go downstairs.
15:51He leans down.
15:52And that's why we bumped heads.
15:55We got to start going downstairs.
15:56Especially if he leans down.
15:57I just got to keep it at two, three punches at a time.
16:05When you step back, he's going to come in.
16:07You can catch him coming in.
16:10Just stay alert.
16:14The oldest men to win a junior lightweight title at 37-year-old Daniel Londis.
16:19Azuma Nelson, one of the greatest average fighters.
16:21Debra Mazonkefana and Hobson Konsei.
16:24He's out at 35 years.
16:25And right in between.
16:27Konsei Sal and Fana, it would be Charlie Suarez at 36 years, 278 days.
16:38Suarez got an, for me, he got an uphill battle.
16:41You know, one thing that Navarrete in this corner listening to you interpret that,
16:47they want to try to catch him coming in.
16:49Here's an uppercut.
16:50When he dips down like that.
16:52Yes, when he dips down.
16:53That's a nice body shot from Suarez.
16:56Here's a flurry from Navarrete.
16:57And an overhand right.
17:01Ooh.
17:02Looking down to the body.
17:03And now he's going downstairs on Suarez, too.
17:05He felt that left to the liver.
17:07Look, he has the hole.
17:10Now Suarez coming downstairs.
17:12Trying to test his body as well.
17:14Says, I know that hurt me, but I didn't have trouble making way, buddy.
17:18Nice body shot to the right, with the right side.
17:32Ooh, just missed.
17:33Both guys.
17:37Nice stab, Jack, from Suarez.
17:39Put back, put back.
17:40Put back, put back.
17:47I need a body.
17:47I need a body.
17:47Charlie's going to have to change up his rhythm.
18:01He's going to have to faint.
18:02Use some foot faints.
18:04Stop just tucking up in the high guard.
18:07Navarrete's going to try to bust through that guard.
18:09He's got enough power to bust through it and hurt him.
18:12Yes, even though you hit the glove, he hit through it.
18:15He hit a punch through it, like the heavy bag.
18:19Nice combination from Suarez.
18:20Here comes Suarez.
18:24See, any moments where Navarrete's not set the punch,
18:28Suarez is jumping him with combinations.
18:30They're not heavy shots, but they're scoring blows.
18:37Nice body shot from Suarez on the belt line.
18:40That was deemed legal by the referee at the start of this fight.
18:43Suarez now turning in the southpaw stance, I've told you.
18:45Similar to Berencic.
18:46Oh, what a big shot.
18:49Oh, what a body shot by Navarrete.
18:53Oh, he hurt him with that.
18:54You see the way he's walking backwards.
18:5737 seconds left in this round.
19:00Suarez has only been down once,
19:02but he's got some fight left in him here.
19:04Oh, the fight just broke out.
19:07Oh, my goodness.
19:10This is why people love Navarrete.
19:16And this is why people are here.
19:18This is why people are here for Suarez as well, Bernardo.
19:21Yes.
19:27Oh, that overhead right from Navarrete.
19:29And the body shot to punctuate that combination.
19:32This is world championship action in San Diego.
19:37Absolutely.
19:38And the crowd knows it.
19:40I'm definitely entertained.
19:41It was a head clash, Tim.
19:54Head clash.
19:54I'm familiar with that.
19:56From the southpaw stance, yeah.
19:58A loop in left hand.
19:59To a full jab.
20:02Heads come together right on the eye.
20:04Oh, my goodness.
20:06Yeah, that definitely dazed him right there.
20:07Hit the top of the head of Navarrete.
20:10I love you.
20:16See how well he can recover from that.
20:17You speak to Colum?
20:18You don't speak to Colum?
20:20Hey, you're the only man who's coming in the wrong with a Filipino.
20:22I love you.
20:25Mark, four rounds in, what does your unofficial scorecard look like?
20:3539, 37, three rounds to one Emanuel Navarrete.
20:40Caveat, the third round could have gone either way, but I don't know how Navarrete does it.
20:45He breaks every single damn rule.
20:48Well, he was looking pretty fatigued there in the corner to me.
20:53You said round four is when you start to feel the effects.
20:56I hit a wall.
20:56I hit a wall round four, but Navarrete is not normal, man.
20:59I keep telling y'all, he's an Aztec warrior, some sort of like alien or some kind.
21:03I don't know.
21:04He is tough.
21:06That's all I know.
21:06He breaks every single rule, and it works for him.
21:09It does, because he has the equalizer, the punching power.
21:13He trains at altitude above Mexico City, and that explains those lungs that he has,
21:19despite poor conditioning, despite poor diet.
21:23He's an old-school fighter.
21:25Nice long uppercut.
21:26The first one he lands at from distance, Tim.
21:29That's his signature punch.
21:32Yes.
21:34And again, when he's coming at, momentum is coming forward,
21:36and he's leaping in with those punches.
21:38He's extremely dangerous.
21:39Nice combination there.
21:49Just the left lands for Suarez.
21:51Not enough body work from Suarez, though.
21:56He's letting off the body.
21:57I mean, he's throwing these combinations, but a lot of these combinations being avoided by Navarrete.
22:01That's a good thing.
22:03Look, as unorthodox as he is on the offensive end, he's also very unorthodox on the defensive end.
22:08Yes, he is.
22:09But he's been responsible today, I think.
22:11Yes.
22:11Yes.
22:12Left hook a tip right there from Suarez.
22:15Hoop.
22:15Leaping left hook from Suarez.
22:18Long left hook from Navarrete.
22:20Ooh, that was a swing and a miss.
22:24Ooh, there Suarez tried to go to the body.
22:26Navarrete partially blocks.
22:27Look at the defense.
22:28Look at the defense.
22:29Now that they're getting a lethal shot.
22:30Muhammad Ali fought in this building.
22:34Maybe he's got the spirit of Ali for a second.
22:36Something.
22:38Nice right hand from Navarrete.
22:40Then the left uppercut.
22:41And a quick combo.
22:42He's trying to stand his ground, but it's hard against this punching machine known as the Cowboy.
22:51El Vaquero Navarrete with the right hook.
22:55Electrifying the crowd.
22:56Mexico, Philippines, once again, does not disappoint.
23:00Great counter from Suarez.
23:06You think a soldier's just going to give it up, Tim?
23:08Oh, no.
23:08He ain't giving it up.
23:09Absolutely not.
23:10It's time to come back now.
23:12It's time for him to come back, Suarez, with offense.
23:15See, now Navarrete just spends all that energy.
23:18Now he's trying to rest.
23:20Now he's recharged.
23:21Now he's trying to come forward and get some more offense.
23:24Nice body work from Suarez.
23:26When a guy rests, you say, not on my watch.
23:28Not on my watch.
23:29Absolutely.
23:30Oh, he should have made it.
23:31Nice right hand from Navarrete.
23:34When he was out of position.
23:35Look at the defense.
23:36Look at the defense.
23:36Look at the defense.
23:37What is that guy?
23:39What are you in there doing?
23:40Man.
23:41He's been watching Pennell Whitaker.
23:43Did he tell us that in the fighter meeting?
23:44He did not.
23:45He doesn't watch videos, dude.
23:48He's burping and he's spitting.
24:11Here's Suarez getting on, Timmy.
24:12Yeah, getting off.
24:13Low-high combination right there.
24:15Catching Navarrete as he pulls back from that right hand.
24:19And here, ooh, coming around that guard from Navarrete.
24:22Right hand being held.
24:23But, oh, go ahead and take that in the kitchen.
24:26Split the guard with an uppercut.
24:29Look, Suarez doing his absolute best.
24:32Take it down.
24:33Let's go.
24:33To take whatever Navarrete is dishing out to stay in this fight.
24:37I'm telling you.
24:39Tim, I mentioned that Navarrete was burping in the corner.
24:42What is that?
24:44Is it natural, normal?
24:45Nah, that's not normal.
24:46He always does that.
24:47It's normal for him.
24:48Okay.
24:50What do they call it?
24:51Indigestion?
24:52Burping up in the corner?
24:54All right, so.
24:55Oh, a head clash.
24:56Oh, that's nasty.
24:57Last 16 fights.
24:58You see 67 punches that up around.
25:00Now under 54.
25:01Oh, and it's a huge cut on the left eyebrow of Navarrete.
25:06Oh, and that's dripping nasty.
25:08Oh, my goodness.
25:09And we're at the start of the sixth round.
25:14But it's not in a bad spot.
25:16Yeah, but it's huge.
25:18I get it.
25:20I hope Navarrete has a really good cut, man, if it goes.
25:24Juan Lugo.
25:31Our crew says it might be a punch.
25:37Let's see, Timmy.
25:38Let's see.
25:38Or headbutt.
25:40Oh, that's a punch.
25:43That is a punch.
25:46That's a punch.
25:47Was it the punch or the shoulder?
25:48No, that's a punch.
25:49Yeah, I saw the punch.
25:51That's a punch on that eye.
25:52Navarrete's got.
25:53That is a punch.
25:57Look at the blood streaming down his eye.
25:59Okay, stop.
25:59Step back.
26:00Step back.
26:06They have instant replay here in California.
26:09They do.
26:09They're going to have to take a look at that because I'm telling you, that was from a punch.
26:13Oh, these guys are going at it.
26:17Navarrete.
26:19Did you?
26:19Oh, nice right hand from Charlie Suarez.
26:23The blood is energizing the Filipino challenger.
26:30Oh, my goodness.
26:32Navarrete is desperate.
26:33He's seeing the blood.
26:35Oh, the blood is definitely in his eye for sure.
26:37It's affecting him for sure.
26:38You see him rubbing that eye, trying to clear his vision, at the same time fighting back.
26:49Navarrete was cut against Parenchik, right eye here in the same venue against Isaac Dogway
26:55on the hairline in February 2018.
26:58Never this bad.
27:03Look, I've been there before when blood was dripping down in my eye.
27:06It was so hard to see.
27:08Definitely, my vision was impaired.
27:11But you know what I did to wipe my eye?
27:14What did you do?
27:16I held on tight.
27:17I waited for the referee to get near me.
27:19Then I turned and I rubbed my eye on his clothes.
27:23Yeah, on his shirt.
27:24Absolutely.
27:25Declared my vision.
27:26That's a nice left uppercut from Charlie Suarez.
27:29And look, the other thing here, Tim, it's the way the judges observe a fighter who is cut, bleeding, and who really is out of sorts right now.
27:42Manny Pacquiao, Jeff Horn.
27:43Pacquiao Morales.
27:46Yes.
27:50And we need to get clarification if that was a punch or a butt.
27:54We have to.
27:56I saw a punch.
27:57Nice body shot there from Navarrete.
28:02And that's what hurt Charlie Suarez.
28:05And he is on the prowl.
28:10Navarrete's a dog.
28:11Oh, a great right hand from Charlie Suarez.
28:16Navarrete walked right into it.
28:20He did not see the right hand.
28:22And Charlie Suarez hits him after the bell.
28:24The referee called it ahead, but Tim saw a punch.
28:49Let's take a look at the replay and how that could happen.
28:52Here we are.
28:53How are we looking?
28:54Let's see.
28:58Big shot.
29:00Small little head clash right there.
29:02That could have been the cause of it.
29:04Let's see a different angle.
29:06Let's see a different angle.
29:07Right on the eye.
29:10And then the head clash.
29:11And then the head clash afterwards.
29:14There's a right hand at the end of the round.
29:19On the shoulder.
29:20On the shoulder of Navarrete.
29:21They didn't connect on the chin.
29:24But this body shot right here.
29:26Vicious shot.
29:28Getting around that guard.
29:29You can tell it hurt because you see Suarez's right hand drops.
29:33They may be looking at the instant replay here.
29:36Or they're looking to look at the cut.
29:41Great job in the corner to stop the bleeding.
29:43Mark Friwell is getting the official information from the California State Athletic Commission in terms of the determination of accidental headbutt or punch.
30:03Looked like a punch.
30:06Looked like a punch.
30:07However, I'll say this.
30:09Oh, nice uppercut.
30:09Oh, nice uppercut.
30:10That left uppercut from Suarez.
30:12The hands did come together right there as well.
30:16But that seemed to be when Navarrete reacted rather than the punch.
30:21Nice right.
30:22Good.
30:22That's what I'm saying.
30:23Yes.
30:24Yes.
30:24Absolutely.
30:27Oh, right.
30:28Hooks from Navarrete.
30:29They're finding a home.
30:33You always get everything from Navarrete.
30:35Everything, everything, everything he has in his soul, you get.
30:411-2 from Navarrete.
30:43He is really going for it, Tim, but yeah, putting himself in harm's way for that left uppercut.
30:54Mark, what is the determination of the commission on the cut?
30:58The commission ruled it an accidental headbutt.
31:00I said, hey, listen, our tape looks like something else.
31:03It's an accidental headbutt.
31:05As far as the quarter is concerned, Juan Lugo, total trail, the translator Gabriel Rivas.
31:10It's very deep, but we can deal with it.
31:13It's not a dangerous cut.
31:15I don't know what it means, but it looks pretty bad to me.
31:18When those heads came together, when Navarrete came, that could have been the reason why.
31:26Absolutely.
31:26Although I did see a punch first.
31:29Absolutely.
31:30Oh, that one stopped Navarrete in his tracks.
31:33Nice body shot from Navarrete.
31:37And they have Jack Reese on it.
31:40Big left hook.
31:42Charlie Swat is giving Navarrete the taste of his own medicine.
31:47Who I believe is an honest character, and he's watching replay right now.
31:51And he ruled.
31:54Did a head flash.
31:56Oh, big right hand.
32:01Left hook.
32:02Charlie Swat is an angle down stairs.
32:04Oh, good combination.
32:05See, any lobes in action from Navarrete?
32:09Navarrete Swar is.
32:10That's the experience.
32:12350 amateur fights.
32:15Understanding that, hey, his opposition is trying to rest, and he's not going to allow him to rest.
32:20So he's pressing forward with combinations.
32:22Both are taking turns going back and forth with offense.
32:27Oh.
32:27Nice left hook there from Navarrete answering the right hook from Suarez.
32:32That's a good right from Suarez.
32:36Oh.
32:37Navarrete squared up, Timmy.
32:39Oh, he's squared up, yeah.
32:41But he's still slippery in there, man.
32:43He knows how to dip his head and hide.
32:47That's another warning for a rabbit punch for Charlie Swat is.
32:53Another.
32:54That one hurt him to the...
32:55That was after the bell.
32:57Let me clean it up.
33:02My goodness, the crimson mask of Emmanuel Navarrete, the champion here.
33:09Wait for me.
33:11Let me clean it up.
33:16Hey, don't get too hyper here.
33:19Relax.
33:22How do you feel?
33:23Good.
33:24Water?
33:27You're getting a little bit too over-anxious in there.
33:30Let's take another look at the cut and how it happened, Tim.
33:33Yeah, let's clarify this, because I thought it was from a punch.
33:36But you see, there's a punch right there, right on the eye.
33:40But then there's a head clash right there after the exchange.
33:45Here it is again.
33:47Boom.
33:48A punch lands and a head clash right there.
33:50Yep.
33:51Then you saw the blood right there after the head clash.
33:53That is a head clash, not from a punch.
33:55I guess what it has to be is clear and irreversible, and it's not.
34:06It's not very clear, and so the commission has ruled it a head clash, and that's why they
34:13sustained it.
34:14It's bleeding on his own.
34:21Okay, okay.
34:23The fight is called off.
34:24No!
34:25And we're going to have to go to the scorecards after seven rounds.
34:29It'll be a technical decision.
34:31Because it was an accidental headbutt.
34:34The fact that they couldn't stop the bleeding in the corner, I think, is what prompted the
34:38doctor to make the decision to stop this fight.
34:41Look, Charlie Suarez was in this fight, and Emanuel Navarrete gave it all he had through that
34:59cut.
35:01And the question will always be, was it that punch that was partially obscured by the
35:08bodies of both fighters, or was it that headbutt on the way out?
35:11I'm telling you right now, like, Emanuel Navarrete is saying that it was from a punch, and I
35:17get it.
35:18They're the closest thing to me.
35:19It's the closest thing to the action.
35:21Can we go super slow-mo on this?
35:23Yes.
35:23Is there any way we can go super slow-mo?
35:25Okay.
35:27Here comes a right.
35:27Boom.
35:28Right on the eye.
35:28Where's the blood?
35:29Where's the blood?
35:30After that is where the blood happens.
35:32You're right.
35:34There's no blood coming out after the right hook.
35:37Here it comes.
35:39I'm looking for blood right here.
35:40It should be blood on the shoulder.
35:43That's when the blood happens.
35:46The blood explodes when the head comes across.
35:49Watch.
35:52Let's see.
35:53Is there blood there?
35:54Let's see.
35:54Let's see.
35:55Go back a little bit.
35:56Ah.
35:57Okay.
35:58Bam.
35:58Straight left hand.
35:59Oh, it's the scrape as well.
36:07Oh, no.
36:08That's a punch.
36:09Oh, my gosh.
36:11Man, I know I keep going back and forth.
36:13I'm confusing you fans at home.
36:14But that slow-mo right there, because it was a small little graze over the eye.
36:21It wasn't like they e-bumped his head.
36:23No.
36:24And then the hand.
36:25Oh, my gosh, man.
36:27Hey, look.
36:27That's a tough call.
36:28However, you know what?
36:29That slow-mo right there, that was caused by a punch.
36:33I know I keep going back and forth.
36:34However, hey, they got a tough judgment to do here.
36:37I'm telling you.
36:38Tuck, what is the commission doing?
36:41What are the mechanics right now?
36:42I spoke to Jack Reese, who's running the replay, and he just saw what we've been looking at.
36:48And he said, the video is inconclusive, so you have to go with the ruling in the ring.
36:54Because, listen, we saw the scrape, but it's still inconclusive, so you have to go with the ruling.
37:00Yeah.
37:01Makes sense.
37:02That's Jack Reese on the replay.
37:05No, I mean, it was close.
37:07And it's one of the best in the business.
37:08You mentioned it.
37:08I'm telling you, it was very close.
37:11Look, I just appreciate the fact that they've looked at it over and over again.
37:15This is another angle.
37:17It's the left hand that comes in.
37:20Oh, my gosh.
37:21What a left hand.
37:26That was a head clash that is just a tiny rub, but sometimes those are the ones that
37:32caused the most damage.
37:33Here's the punch.
37:34Here's the punch.
37:34Here's the right.
37:35There's that left.
37:35I don't know.
37:36No blood there.
37:36I don't know.
37:37That's what I'm seeing.
37:38And then there is the head clash.
37:39And look at the reaction immediately.
37:41He didn't react to the punch.
37:42Yeah.
37:43At all.
37:44Yeah.
37:44It's such a judgment call, but it is inconclusive.
37:49That's the correct word.
37:50Yes.
37:51And that's why, for now, it's going to be a technical decision.
37:54We did complete, more than halfway through the fight, seven rounds.
37:58And it was the beginning of the eighth round when the doctor decided that Emanuel Navarrete
38:02was in no condition to continue due to the fact that they could not stop the bleeding
38:07in the corner.
38:09Mark, your final card through seven rounds unofficially.
38:12What does it look like?
38:1468, 65, very interesting, action-packed, ultimately frustrating rounds, but it's a hell of a fight
38:24while it lasted.
38:26And look, Tim, we talk about this happening with Southpaws and Orthodox fighters, and it
38:31was just such bang-bang action.
38:34Three things happening at the same time.
38:35Both guys moving their heads.
38:37You know, Swire is landing that shot, and then coming up, the head clash, and then the rub
38:44with the side of the glove.
38:47They are looking at the scorecards right now.
38:50They're tallying up the scores.
38:52We're going to take a quick break, and when we return, we will have the official judge's
38:57decision for you here in San Diego.
38:59We will have the final decision for you here in San Diego.
41:57Back in San Diego, California.
42:07And we're going to give you an opportunity.
42:09You be the judge.
42:10Put yourself in the eyes of the replay official.
42:13Was this the punch that caused the cut?
42:16Or was it this head clash?
42:19Or this rubbing of the glove that forces that blood to start emanating from the eyelid of Emanuel Navarrete?
42:29Okay, this, because it was inconclusive, when we went to the replay evidence, the doctor stopped it after round seven.
42:37We go to a technical decision with Jimmy Lennon Jr.
42:40Ladies and gentlemen, this bat has been stopped at one second of round number eight.
42:49A referee in charge, Edward Coyante stops the contest upon advice of the ringside physician.
42:56Navarrete unable to continue due to a headbutt.
42:59He received an accidental headbutt earlier in the fight.
43:03Therefore, we go to the scorecards with a technical decision.
43:07Here are the score totals.
43:09Judger ringside, Pat Russell scores about 78 to 75.
43:14Fernando Villarreal and Dr. Lou Moret both score about 77 to 76.
43:22All three in favor of the winner.
43:25And still, the WBO Junior Lightweight Champion of the World, Emanuel, El Vaquero Navarrete.
43:37Emanuel Navarrete retains his world title.
43:41We will have the post-fight interviews on the state of boxing.
43:46A great night of action.
43:48Controversy here with the finish.
43:51We leave you with Nicole Briscoe in San Diego's own David Lloyd with SportsCenter.
