MEXICO CITY (June 20, 2020) — Boxing’s most active world champion, Emanuel “Vaquero” Navarrete, keeps on rolling. Navarrete, the WBO junior featherweight world champion, knocked out Uriel Lopez in the sixth round of a featherweight non-title bout Saturday eveningfrom TV Azteca Studios.

It was the sixth victory in 13 months for Navarrete (32-1, 28 KOs), who upset Isaac Dogboe in December 2018 to win his world title.

Lopez (13-14-1, 6 KOs) was game, but no match for Navarrete’s swarming body attack.

Said Navarrete: “I have the utmost respect for Uriel Lopez. He put forth a courageous effort, but I was coming to win by knockout. I want to unify titles, but if nobody accepts my challenge, I’ll move up to featherweight.”
