The competitive scene of the super featherweight division registers intense efforts in the sports promotion offices to finalize a clash between world monarchs. The camp of Mexican boxer Emanuel Vaquero Navarrete addresses the versions that point to a fight against the American O'Shaquie Foster for the month of October in San Antonio, Texas, in a contest that would put three 130-pound crowns in dispute.
Despite the publications spread on social networks about a closed agreement for the card in North American territory, the legal representation of the Guadalajara boxer preferred to remain cautious regarding the current state of the talks.

The Unification of the titles of the World Boxing Organization (WBO), the International Boxing Federation (IBF) and the World Boxing Council (WBC) is emerging as the main goal for Vaquero Navarrete's team at the close of the competition calendar.
The official position of the Mexican camp
Speculation about the confirmation of the event motivated a direct response from the management that manages the Aztec fighter's career. Through a message published on his official account on the social network
"Not yet... To close a fight like this, all those involved must agree. And we (Vaquero) are not yet," declared Alejandro Brito on his digital platform to specify the status of the negotiation process.
This intervention by the manager confirms the existence of active conversations between the promotion companies, although he points out that the Mexican corner is still evaluating the economic and logistical terms of the contract before formalizing the official announcement.
The precedent at 130 pounds and the regulatory commitments
The recent journey of the national boxer records his last presentation on February 28, the date on which he unified the titles of the category after defeating Mexican Eduardo “Sugar” Núñez via technical knockout in the eleventh round. After the victory obtained in February against Eduardo Núñez, Vaquero Navarrete added the IBF scepter to the WBO belt that he already held within the super featherweight division.
Subsequent to said coronation, the WBO championship committee issued a mandatory order to contest a mandatory defense against the Filipino candidate Charly Suárez, granting an initial period of twenty days to agree on the conditions of the lawsuit. Despite the claims of Filipino challenger Charly Suárez, Vaquero Navarrete's corner analyzes options with greater commercial impact within the international market, considering that Suárez has just beaten Manuel Ávila in July after a knockout in the opening round.
