The fight between the Mexican and the Ukrainian will take place on May 18 in San Diego
Mexican boxer Emmanuel Navarrete does not hide the fact that he is afraid of his opponent, the WBO International champion Denis Berinchik.
“He’s dangerous. He will come out very hungry and we will have to work hard to take care of that.”
The Berinchyk-Navarrete fight will take place on May 18 in San Diego. It will be hosted by the Pekanga Arena complex. The World Boxing Organization sanctioned this fight at the end of January.
Earlier, K2 Promotions CEO Alexander Krasyuk said that the contract stipulated a rematch between the Ukrainian and the Mexican. Another option of the contract is fights with champions of other associations, including a show with WBC champion Shakur Stevenson.
29-year-old Navarrete finished in a draw with Brazilian Robson Conceicao in November 2023 and retained his WBO super featherweight title. If he defeats Berinchik, the Mexican will become world champion in four different weight categories.
The 35-year-old Ukrainian fought his last fight in August against Swede Anthony Yigit. Berinchyk won by unanimous decision and defended the WBO International title, which he has held since 2018.
