    What can you guys tell me about Omar Andres Narvaez

    I was just scouring BoxRec and came across this dude. Undefeated flyweight, he's defended the WBO flyweight belt 17 times. Not a word is ever spoken about him. Anybody recommend and fights with him?

      Yeah that's typically the case with the lower weight divisions which is why no one pays attention to them.

          I did some research a few months ago and found that he is currently the longest running titlist in the world having won his title back in 2002 yet I have actually never seen him fight.

              He has good defense and is a well rounded boxer. I do agree that he has defended his title against B level guys(at best). The reason why you haven't really heard about him is that, like many other argentinians, he doesn't fight abroad and Argentina is a horrible place for foreing boxers fighting a local champion.

                He's a good boxer, fast enough hands and better defense, has what it takes to make it big, but needs further exposure to do so.

                I remember when he fought Rexon Flores way back, he totally outclassed the filipino.

                Is he part of a major promotional outfit? He needs one, so he can have the similar exposure like his compatriots Maidana and Martinez, coz he's not getting any younger, clock's ticking.

                  I made a thread requesting his fights in our videos section and quite a few were posted.

                  - He has a unique style and he's fun to watch. He really schools his opponents.

                  - He's defended his title in several European countries.

                  - He's fought decent opposition, people haven't heard of some of his opponents because those weight classes don't receive much media attention.

                  - He's at a height and reach disadvantage with most of his opponents, but outboxes them anyway.

                    I agree with the bold. He has fought outside Argentina a few times though.

                    I've seen a little bit of Cesar Seda, but he looks legit, could turn out to be a very tough fight for him.
