Emanuel Navarrete and O'Shaquie Foster are set to meet in a three-belt super-featherweight unification fight at Frost Bank Center in San Antonio on Saturday, October 24. Navarrete holds the WBO and IBF titles; Foster holds the WBC title. The winner would leave with three major belts at 130 pounds, but this is not an undisputed-title fight. Both the promoter and the arena list the event for October 24.
Top Rank lists the DAZN broadcast from 8 p.m. Eastern / 5 p.m. Pacific. That is the scheduled start of the televised portion, not a confirmed time for the main-event ring walks. Fans buying a ticket or planning a stream should check the promoter and broadcaster again during fight week because running orders and start times can move.
The card has become clearer since the original announcement. Top Rank's September 16 update added a ten-round fight between Steven Navarro and Emanuel Moreno for the vacant NABO bantamweight title. It also named Tarik Zaina as Frank Martin's opponent in a ten-round super-lightweight contest. The ten-round featherweight co-feature remains Albert Gonzalez against Edward Vazquez. Top Rank says those four bouts are on the DAZN broadcast.
The stakes at the top of the bill make this more than a routine title defense: two reigning champions are putting separate belts into one contest. The newer card announcement also gives viewers a reason to follow the undercard rather than tuning in only for the main event. The arena's event listing confirms the San Antonio venue; Top Rank's event page is the reference for the latest broadcast schedule.
