I predict an upset. Although I don’t see Villa hurting Navarrete he can box and I see this as a cat and mouse with Villa staying out of harms way and out boxing him to take a decision.
Maybe I’m silly and Navarrete will just blow him away or it’ll be a terrible fight, but I’m actually really looking forward to this one tonight.
Dosen’t have enough KO power to keep Navarrete off him.
