Renowned boxing trainer Robert Garcia has shared his insights on the upcoming fight between Canelo Alvarez and Jaime Munguia. The bout is set for Saturday, May 4th, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Garcia, who trains around 30 professional fighters at his gym in Riverside, California, believes that while Munguia will present a challenge, Alvarez's experience will give him the upper hand.
Canelo Alvarez, with a record of 60-2-2 and 39 KOs, has been a pro since 2005 and holds IBF, WBA, WBO, and WBC super middleweight world titles. Jaime Munguia stands undefeated with a record of 43-0 and 34 KOs. He turned professional in 2013 and is a former world champion. According to Garcia, both fighters possess hard-hitting capabilities making their styles compatible for an exciting match.
Garcia's prediction emphasizes Alvarez’s advantage due to this deeper experience. "I think Munguia will put up some good rounds," Garcia stated. "But eventually Canelo catches him, maybe hurts him, and maybe stops him." He also commented generally on the fight’s enjoyability: "As long as the fight lasts, I think it is going to be a fight."
