  • Waste of time when we know Canelo is going to win. Nothing that Jaime does will be enough.

    • So much for your opinion!! You just state facts or maybe you don’t know the difference.

    • Yes I’m wishfully rooting for Munguia too. Hope he at least makes it competitive…

  • Jaime, please make it a real fight and “don”t sell out “. Don”t follow the “$cript” like most of canelo’s opponents. You will need to win at least 9 rds. to get a split decision or a draw . The referee will likely favor canelo and protect him, but will “stop it ” if you get “hurt “. Its a “business” not a “sport” in these “fights” .

  • Goodness, what does Munguia have to do for glory?:

    1) He can get front foot heavy, so he has to watch for counters/uppercuts and keep up his hands (with tight elbows).

    2) Work his long jab and also try to use his jabs to stab Canelo’s gut. If done correctly, it’s a quiet, great weapon that drains an opponent during rounds.

    3) Use his physical strength and try to wear down Canelo by making him go backwards/laterally – maybe this will wear down Canelo during the second half of the fight.

    4) Keep Canelo on the defensive by using his length/range and work his jabs to set up sharp combination punches (also hit the shoulders). Munguia will have to fight at range and conduct rough inside fighting…tough missions.

    5) Munguia has to make Canelo hesitate by applying constant, smart pressure.

    6) Munguia will need ‘Rocky IV’ mental toughness to withstand Canelo’s offense – so, keep that chin tucked/elbows tight and say to himself: F#%% IT BECAUSE I CAN REST TOMORROW!!

    7) During rounds 1-3, maybe he can catch Canelo cold by going for the KO.

    Munguia has to conquer too many tasks. My pick remains for a Canelo victory (KO 11). Canelo’s victory may occur by left hook to body and/or to head. IF the fight goes 12, Canelo also has the love and eyes of the judges.

    After Canelo’s victory, time for CANELO/BENAVIDEZ AT 168 (IN TEXAS!!). I will hang in there for this fight.

  • If Munguia wants a chance to defeat Canelo,
    1- He has to study Bivol vs Canelo.
    When Canelo starts loading , Jaime should take a step back and move left to right, in 90 degree angle a la Bivol.
    2- Throw hard volume punches

  • i am just hoping for a real fight. i dont think jaime will win either way but these “staged or scripted” fights we usually get hurt boxing .
    does anyone know who the nv.s.a. c. “judges or “referee” be ?
    cheatam, weisfeld, sutherland , delucca, referee docks or weeks ? the usual crooked crew .

  • I don’t understand why so many folks are not giving Jamie a decent chance. He is a very good fighter, undefeated and young. Canelo might get ambushed by his speed and overall work rate.

    • Because Canelo has been picking and choosing fighters he knows he can beat. Bivol was a cherry pick that backfired. Canelo didn’t want the rematch which is why he he said it had to be under the same terms as the first fight which made no sense given that he lost. Canelo fight as well be fighting me next.

      • I don’t think Canelo took bivol.As a cherry pick, he was aware he was at 175 pounds. Against big and undefeated fighter

        And bivol barely won for one round

    • Has a lot to overcome with Canelo owning the referee and judges. Best chance if Canelo suddenly gets old on fight night which could happen. Question is +425 odds enough? Probably not but going to take a chance on him.

  • There is a bigger factor that nobody mentioned,,,*,,,,canelo age he Is in declined and the boxers change a lot from one fight to another one when getting old

  • mungia will fight canelo promotions, the judges, the ref. , the crooked nvsac, the “honorable” wbc, and the $cript. thats too much corruption to overcome. mungia already saying its going to be a “mental fight “. translation “i am not going to throw as many punches and i am happy to go the distance to lose a decision.
