Top Rank has announced they’ve signed a multi-year promotional extension with two-time and current WBC junior lightweight world champion O’Shaquie Foster.
Foster, 25-3 (12 KOs), of Houston, has had five fights under the Top Rank banner since signing in November 2023, following his successful title defense over Eduardo “Rocky” Hernandez.
He decisioned Abraham Nova before losing and then regaining his WBC junior lightweight belt in two consecutive fights with Robson Conceição, in July and November 2024,. Both matches ended in split decisions.
Foster then went on to dominate two-division world champion Stephen Fulton Jr. last December before defeating former featherweight world champion Raymond Ford by majority decision in his most recent ring appearance in May.
Recent reports have said that Foster has a verbal agreement to face three-division and current unified IBF and WBO junior lightweight champ Emanuel Navarrete in a three-belt unification fight on October 24 in San Antonio, though no official announcement has yet been made.
“I’m excited about this new chapter,” said Foster. “It’s been a great partnership with Top Rank and DAZN, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to continue building with both organizations. I can’t wait to take on bigger challenges and continue to take over the sport.”
“O’Shaquie Foster has been on an impressive championship trajectory during our time together, with a series of statement wins that have created real momentum and established him among the best fighters in his weight class and the world,” said Top Rank President Todd duBoef. “His desire to challenge and defeat all has been the key ingredient to our promotional partnership, which we look forward to continuing in the coming years.”
