"O’Shaquie Foster joins Fight Hub TV to discuss his Oct. 24 showdown with Emanuel Navarrete with three world titles on the line, and also shares some thoughts on other topics, such as why he believes Shakur Stevenson is avoiding him as much as possible. Read some excerpts of what he had to say with the full video interview available in the link below. Foster on facing Navarrete “Four belts [on the line], I’ve got a great champion on the other side so there’s no way they can not give me credit after this fight. I’m ready. I love it.” On how he assesses Navarrete’s last performance “I thought he was the same Navarrete but I do think he took care of his body a little more. They said he had a nutritionist and a strength and conditioning coach, so his body looked better. But as far as fighting style and activity, he looked the same. “Now, Nunez didn’t give us much to offer, much to look back at and he was small,. So it’s kind of hard to judge but I thought he looked definitely a little but sharper and faster than he has in previous fights.” On Navarrete’s awkward fighting style “It’s something to look out for, it’s something to be aware of because it’s something that the regular person don’t do in boxing, but also that can be terrible for fighting a well-balanced guy. Some of that stuff don’t work with guys like me. You can’t be jumping with uppercuts from the outside ‘cause you know that’s just bad mechanics. And with guys like Valdez, Nunez, that stuff works…I just think that certain styles you can’t really play like that, but we going to have to see. But I’m definitely looking forward to it coming. “I’m looking to come in and dominate, and not just on the outside, I’m talking about the whole facet of the fight. I don’t think he’s a better inside fighter than me. I think he throws more punches, or like the guys that he’s faced, he’s looked like a better inside fighter than me, but I don’t think he can beat me in any aspect of the game.
"O’Shaquie Foster is extremely confident he’s going to show out in title unification with Emanuel Navarrete.
