Navarrete vs. Foster: What Channel Is It On and What Time Does the DAZN Card Start?
Emanuel Navarrete vs. O'Shaquie Foster is on Saturday, Oct. 24, 2026, at the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, live on DAZN in the U.S. The start time is where the sources split: Top Rank's announcement says the DAZN broadcast begins at 8 p.m. ET, which is 5 p.m. PT, while DAZN's own boxing schedule lists 9 p.m. ET. No source we read gives a ring-walk time for the main event.
What channel is Navarrete vs. Foster on?
DAZN. Top Rank's announcement, dated Sept. 2, says the card will be streamed live on DAZN, and DAZN's schedule lists the fight too. The Canelo Alvarez vs. Christian Mbilli fight a week later, on Saturday, Oct. 31, is announced as DAZN PPV, but none of the sources we read gives Navarrete–Foster that tag, and DAZN's schedule doesn't say either way, so check the price in the DAZN app before you plan around it. We read DAZN's schedule on Saturday, Oct. 17.

What time does Navarrete vs. Foster start?
The two sources are an hour apart, and we aren't picking one. Top Rank is the promoter, and its announcement is the older of the two, from Sept. 2. DAZN's schedule article carries a 13 Oct publication date. U.S. clocks don't change until Sunday, Nov. 1, so Oct. 24 is in daylight time under both readings.
| Source says | ET | CT | MT | PT |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Top Rank, Sept. 2: broadcast begins | 8 p.m. | 7 p.m. | 6 p.m. | 5 p.m. |
| DAZN schedule, Oct. 13: card listed at | 9 p.m. | 8 p.m. | 7 p.m. | 6 p.m. |
Top Rank prints the Eastern and Pacific times; DAZN prints Eastern. The Central and Mountain columns are our own conversion. If you are planning your evening, treat 8 p.m. ET as the earliest the DAZN broadcast could begin and check the DAZN app that afternoon. We will update this page when the two agree.
The main event is not the first fight. Top Rank's release lists a 10-round co-feature and Frank Martin's 10-round bout beneath it, so the ring walks depend on how long the earlier fights run, and nobody has published a time for them.
Who is on the Navarrete vs. Foster card?
Top Rank's announcement lists the main event, Albert “Chop Chop” Gonzalez vs. Edward Vazquez as the featherweight co-feature, and a 10-round Frank Martin bout. FightMag, in a report dated Sept. 16, adds the rest of the announced undercard:
- Frank Martin vs. Tarik Zaina, 10 rounds, super lightweight
- Steven Navarro vs. Emanuel Moreno, 10 rounds, for the vacant NABO bantamweight title
- Deric Davis vs. Joaquin Silva Faccio, 8 rounds, lightweight
- Daniel Cortez III vs. Oziel Rangel Aradillas, 6 rounds, super bantamweight
Two more six-round fights in that report still had an opponent to be announced. Cards change, so treat the list as the announced bouts as of Sept. 16. Both schedules also list Dalton Smith vs. Alberto Puello on DAZN the same Saturday. We haven't confirmed that it is the same show, so it isn't on this list.
What is at stake in Navarrete vs. Foster?
Three belts at 130 pounds. Navarrete holds the WBO and IBF titles and Foster holds the WBC title, and Top Rank calls it a three-belt unification showdown. ESPN uses the name junior lightweight for the same weight class. The venue changed along the way: The Ring's report on Aug. 16 put the fight at the Alamodome, and Top Rank's Sept. 2 announcement and ESPN's story give the Frost Bank Center.
What time will Navarrete vs. Foster end?
There's no published end time. With the start itself unsettled by an hour and the ring walks unannounced, we aren't giving a finish time.
