Canelo Alvarez retained his undisputed super middleweight championship by defeating Jaime Munguia in a Cinco de Mayo weekend showdown at T-Mobile Arena. Alvarez scored the first knockdown of Munguia’s career with a powerful combination and secured a victory via scores of 115-113, 117-110, and 116-111. Despite Munguia’s spirited effort, Alvarez’s experience, counterpunching, and superior punching power proved too much to handle. The bout was overshadowed by renewed tensions between Alvarez and his former promoter, Oscar De La Hoya, but Alvarez remained focused and victorious. Looking ahead, Alvarez expressed willingness to face David Benavidez if the financial terms are right, reaffirming his status as one of boxing’s top stars.
