Omar Narvaez attempts the eighth defense of his 115 lb. belt as he faces fringe contender Hiroyuki Hisataka in their scheduled 12-round championship bout Saturday evening in Trelew, Argentina.
Narvaez (39-1-2, 20KO) has won four straight since his miserably failed attempt at conquering then-unified bantamweight titlist Nonito Donaire in their infamous Oct. '11 stinker. The Argentine southpaw is 25-1 overall in title fights, including a deep run at flyweight before moving up in weight three years ago.
Hisataka (22-10-1, 10KO) hardly bears the look of a worthy title challenger, but reached this point after an upset win over former lineal flyweight champ Sonny Boy Jaro earlier this year.
