Canelo Alvarez vs Jaime Munguia | Fight Countdown

Fight Countdown to the Canelo Alvarez vs Jaime Munguia showdown that takes place on May 4th 2023. The all-Mexican showdown, to celebrate Cinco De Mayo, will involve the undisputed super middleweight champion, Canelo, defending his four world title belts against Munguia - who has been knocking on the door for a shot at Canelo for some time. Munguia, previously been a world champion at super-welterweight, became one of the top contenders of division after beating Sergiy Derevyanchenko in one of the best fights of 2023. And in the early part of 2024, outshined Canelo’s attempts against John Ryder by stopping the tough Briton in the 9th round. This latest triumph put Munguia in the prime position to be selected by Canelo - who is constantly on the lookout for worthy opposition. And though the boxing audience will have been hoping for a Canelo vs Benavidez showdown, the decision to instead clash with Munguia may deliver a more fan-friendly fight. 00:00 - 03:17: Canelo vs Munguia Intro 03:17 - 06:13: Why Canelo-Mungia is happening 06:13 - 09:30: Jaime Munguia’s Rise 09:30 - 11:19: Munguia Becomes World Champion 11:19 - 14:50: Early Signs of a Canelo-Munguia Rivalry 14:50 - 19:10: Munguia’s Campaign for a Big Fight 19:10 - 24:08: Canelo & Munguia Finally Meet
