Legendary American trainer Freddie Roach assessed the chances of his ward Jaime Munguia (43-0, 34 KOs) in the upcoming fight with absolute world champion in the second middleweight division Saul Alvarez (60-2-2, 39 KOs).
Earlier it became known that their fight will take place on May 4 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, USA.
"I like this fight. Do I believe that Alvarez can early? Yes, I do. Come on, he's been shaken before. I know Munguia's style will give Canelo problems and we're looking forward to this fight. We signed the contract in one day - that's how much we wanted this fight.
I think Alvarez has given up a little bit, but we'll find out. I don't expect a knockout, but Jaime can knock him out," Boxing Social quoted Roach as saying.
