Emanuel Navarrete will look to add to his already impressive resume on Saturday when he puts the WBO junior lightweight title on the line against Charly Suarez, and he's bringing some significant momentum into the fight.

A controversial end marred a classic Philippines-Mexico slugfest with previously unbeaten Filipino challenger Charly Suarez losing to Mexican champion Emanuel Navarrete via a seven-round technical decision on Sunday (Manila time).
