  • – Looking forward to a good night of fights.
    – Don’t really have a dog in any of the matches, but I wouldn’t mind seeing a Mungia upset.
    – I thought that listing the weights for only 4 bouts was a mistake, but that’s the whole card, that’s it.
    – Seems like more undercard fights should be on the menu for $90.
    – Thank you, again, Amazon Fire Stick…….

    • LOL, love the Fire Stick comments… Amazon thanks you for being a loyal customer. 🙂

  • Vamossssssssss munguiaaaaaaaaaa
    Ajuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
    You the next champ munguiaaaaaaaaa

  • Canello and Mongia, very professional fighters. They made the way like a real champion’s not like fancy ryan garcia.

  • Who else is gonna watch this fight free and save their money for a Canelo/Benavidez fight if Canelo has the balls…

    • I like to pay. How does the sport survive if boxing supporters don’t pay up? Plus how can you be a boxing fan and expect free boxing entertainment?

      • – I already have a $235/month Comcast Cable bill.
        – That’s more than my monthly gas and electric bill combined.
        – I paid extra for HBO and Showtime for almost 35 years to watch boxing.
        – I go to live Boxing events several times a year as I am the East Coast and have easy access to the NJ casinos, Boardwalk Hall Atlantic City, Madison Square Garden, and most recently Barclay’s Center.
        – I will be at the Zander Xayas fight at MSG for Puerto Rican Day weekend.
        – I have an Amazon Fire Stick and I use it to watch boxing PPV events, as well as any movie or TV that’s in the library of all the apps. It’s the best $35 that I ever spent.
        – Since I have probably spent literally tens of thousands of $$ over my 59 years to follow, support, and watch Boxing, I don’t have an issue with watching an event for free on my Stick. Other people do, but I don’t………..

    • If you don’t pay when you should you are a ‘cheat’ just like a pro boxer on PEDs!

    • You may be right bread wbitch, but I’m rooting for munguia, puto.

      • hahahaha….. Señorita Queen. are you and Carlos “watching” the fight together? you make a good couple. remember, protect yourselves.

        • No. I would have been watching the fight with your wbitch, but with a name like pan, you probably are likely a pinche joto. Mienso.

  • Don’t like the fact that Canelo is able to ‘choose’ who he fights and doesn’t, but gotta give it to him, he is always in shape, gives his best in a fight, draws a massive interest and a massive crowd to the sport of boxing.

  • make it real Jaime; don’t sell out; win or lose you will gain the fans respect;

  • That guy Maestre only has 6 fights and fighting for a world title…hmhh

  • Very professional and business like weight in.

    No trash talking, no shoving

  • Canelo didn’t look dry. He’s coming in lighter than usual. Rehydration won’t be too drastic. He plans on actually moving. I thought he would come in around 183, but I’m thinking more like 176-177.

    Munguia has to be on higher alert than planned because of counters. If there’s a stoppage, I see Munguía getting caught in mid-combo as Canelo leans towards his own right and releasing a right uppercut simultaneously.

    If Canelo cannot hurt Munguia, which is entirely possible, Munguía takes it in the second half of the fight on sheer volume.

    Perhaps the Beterbiev injury raised this fight up a couple of notches. What other matchups below heavyweight are interesting between tomorrow and the end of the summer?

  • Well, my fightnews homies. Have fun with the fight, I’m sitting this one out. My first born graduates from college. I will catch it way later if need be. Go munguia!

    • Congratulations brother!!! You should feel not only proud for you first born, but of yourself and mom for doing a great job. I’ve got three so I know it’s not an easy travel. Let this be one of many goals on the road to a successful future.

      • Thanks, Peter. If you are watching the fight have fun! Yes, two more left to get to the next level. Appreciate the kudos!

  • i am just hoping for a real fight with no controversy , excuses, or failed p.e.d. tests. there is just too much corruption in boxing- judges, refs., state commissions, wbc, wba, wbo, ibf. , and the promoters. so lets just enjoy the fight and hope for the best for boxings’ sake.

  • as a little kid i had my “boxing heroes”. when olivares lost to herrera and then arguello i almost cried. then 10 years later as a young man , i saw arguello lose to pryor and i cried. as a teenager , when i saw leonard beat duran in second fight, i was so angry but when i saw leonard get tko by norris i was so saddened. in my late 30’s , i was present at the chavez – tzyu fight in 2000. when chavez was tko by tzyu i was so sad and when tzyu got stopped by hatton same thing -sadness. Now, i am in my 60’s , and having followed boxing since i was 8 years old, i have learned to be a fan of boxing not of “heroes”. so i defend “old school boxing” and i am critical of those involved that “hurt ” the sport . But everyone has a right to express their opinion and i don’t claim to be right as they are just opinions. i don’t believe in insulting anyone that thinks differently ,but i will defend myself if insulted . enjoy the fight and may the best man win.

  • My prediction is it will be a draw. There will be a rematch with both making a ton of money. Don’t sleep on Munguia you all.
