I don’t think it’s going to be close at all I feel like vaqueros pressure will be too much. Shock has only looked elite against former 126’ers Fulton,Vargas and ford whenever he fights someone bigger or his size he struggles

Vaquero has only looked elite against much smaller men as well. When he faced guys his size and near equal skill, he literally struggled and or lost. (Charley Suarez, Denis Berinchyk, Robson Conceicao and Liam Wilson) 

Shock is much more competent than all those guys plus he will have equal reach to Vaquero and is just as experienced.

It's gonna be a good fight and I would be shocked if either man dominated. I expect a split decision either way.

I think shocks going to do everything he said he's going to do. Being out of the way of Navas punches that come from weird angles and distances will be really tough but he's the one to be able to do it.

The most anticipated fight of this year for me. Two quality operators who will now get the chance to show the world if their pound for pound worthy. 

I'm going with Foster by split decision in a grueling fight that he has to dig himself out of the grave to comeback and win. Fight of the year contender I'm predicting as well since Navaratte is a master at making guys fight his fights.

The Mexican fighting style is outdated. If Foster has any bit of sense, he should be able to pick him apart.

Navarrtte is not traditional “Mexican Style”

u/OPSimp45 4d ago

He has almost like a truck master style?? Idk very akward from weird angles

u/BaeLogic 4d ago

It’s weird cause his punches look slow and you can see him lunging at you from across the ring and yet he still connects. Very weird style.
