When is Emanuel Navarrete vs. Oscar Valdez? Ticket info, fight card, how to watch and stream

Emanuel Navarrete makes the second defence of his WBO super featherweight title when he takes on fellow Mexican Oscar Valdez later this year in Arizona. 

Navarrete's last fight against Liam Wilson to claim the WBO 130lbs belt saw him join an illustrious list of three-weight champions from Mexico and he will be looking to continue what has been a successful career. 

Valdez, who bounced back from his loss to Shakur Stevenson with a points win over Adam Lopez in May, can also join the list of Mexican three-division world champions if he manages to overcome Navarrete.
