Steven Navarro-Emanuel Moreno added to Emanuel Navarrete-O'Shaquie Foster undercard

On Saturday, October 24, a pair of 22-year-old bantamweight prospects and former amateur rivals, Steven Navarro and Emanuel Moreno, will meet in a 10-round clash for the vacant NABO title.

Navarro, 9-1 (6 KOs), of Los Angeles, and Moreno, 13-0 (3 KOs), from Wichita Falls, Texas, will meet on the undercard of the three-belt super featherweight world title unification showdown between WBO/IBF champion Emanuel Navarrete and WBC king O’Shaquie Foster, broadcast live on DAZN (8 pm ET/5 pm PT) from Frost Bank Center in San Antonio.

In their first meeting, Navarro squeaked past Moreno in the 2020 USA Youth National Amateur Championships via split decision in 2021.

A former decorated amateur, Navarro turned pro in April 2024 and won his first seven bouts. He lost a shock technical decision to Jesse Daniel Mendoza in November 2025 after an accidental cut over Mendoza’s right eye, forced a premature trip to the scorecards at the start of the fourth round. 

“Kid Dynamite” Navarro has since rebounded with a unanimous decision over Mario Hernandez in February and a fifth-round knockout of Delvin McKinley in August.

“Texas! I’m thrilled to fight there and thankful to Top Rank and DAZN for the opportunity to fight on the main card,” said Navarro. “It’s also my first 10-round bout, and I fully intend to give the fans an exciting show and a statement win.”

A multiple-time national amateur champion who compiled a final record of 141-15 before turning pro in November 2022, Moreno scored a third-round knockout of Ira Terry in November 2024, then decisioned Khalid Twaiti and Edwin Tercero in 2025. 

“El Trompo” Moreno opened 2026 with an eight-round decision over Francisco Pedroza Portillo in April.

“I’m grateful for the opportunity to fight on a Top Rank stage,” said Moreno. “Steven Navarro is a talented fighter and I respect what he brings to the ring. I’ve known him since the amateurs and we actually fought once in the amateurs, but professional boxing is a completely different story, and I’m going to show it. I’m not coming to be another opponent. I’ve worked too hard and sacrificed too much for this moment. On October 24, I’m coming to make a statement and show everyone the level I’m on compared to these other fighters.”

Also announced, super lightweight contender Frank Martin will face Morocco’s Tarik Zaina in a 10-rounder.

In the 10-round featherweight co-feature, unbeaten Robert Garcia protegee Albert “Chop Chop” Gonzalez takes on Fort Worth native and former two-time world title challenger Edward Vazquez.
