Preview Canelo vs Munguia

At the T Mobile Arena, Canelo will seek his 61st victory against a rival six years younger, motivated by the possibility of achieving the most resounding victory of his career.

Praised for his dedication and hunger to improve, Alvarez has been criticized in recent months for not accepting the challenge of World Boxing Council interim champion David Benavides. Controversies aside, this Saturday he will go out to show that at 33 years old he is the best in his category against a rival with 34 fast-track wins.

Munguia is having a good time; On January 27 he defeated the British John Ryder by knockout, whom he sent to the canvas four times; However, against ‘Canelo’ you will have to be intelligent and pay attention to one of his weak points: defense.

It will be an attractive fight because after losing two years ago to the Russian Dmitrii Bivol, Saúl regained confidence and defeated the Kazakh Gennadiy Golovkin, Ryder and the American Jermell Charlo, although all three held out until the final round.

Jaime Munguia is 10 centimeters taller and his reach is three centimeters longer; He will try to impose conditions with his ‘jab’ and will be attentive to the attacks of the highest-grossing boxer in the world, who dreams of being the best pound for pound again.

Canelo is seeking his 40th knockout as a professional, although he will not obsess over knocking down his opponent early; The champion has improved his defense and looks elastic despite his seniority, which does not put him at a disadvantage against a younger rival.

“I don’t have his experience, but I do have youth and I will demonstrate my ability this Saturday,” said Munguía, who has won almost four of five fights quickly.

Alvarez will celebrate 20 years as a professional in 2025 and is working to celebrate them with his boxing at the highest level. This Saturday he is expected to try to deceive Munguia with feints, quick movements and surprise offensives, for which the 27-year-old rival has prepared.
