Month: May 2024

The Canelo Alvarez vs. Jaime Munguia fight card is packed with plenty of gold on the line at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nev., on Saturday night.

Canelo Alvarez will put his undisputed super middleweight titles up for grabs when he squares off against unbeaten challenger Jaime Munguia.

Alvarez (60-2-2) has reeled off three straight wins since his loss to Dmitry Bivol on May 7, 2022. He has picked up decision wins over Gennady Golovkin, John Ryder, and Jermell Charlo.

Meanwhile, Munguia has yet to taste defeat with a 43-0 record (and 34 knockouts). He knocked out Ryder in the ninth round in his last outing this past January.

Also on the card, Mario Barrios will defend his WBC interim welterweight championship against Fabian Maidana, champion Brandon Figueroa faces Jessie Magda

Canelo Alvarez’s number one hater is back in action, and has provoked a response from the champion.

Alvarez is back in action on the latest ‘Cinco De Mayo’ weekend as he touches gloves with fellow countryman Jaime Munguia in a defence of his undisputed 168lb titles.

At two of his previous fights, the Mexican champion has been taunted by a fan, who has held up a sign at his ‘grand arrivals’ urging him to stop ‘ducking’ David Benavidez.

The fan was once again present at Alvarez’s arrival in Las Vegas, holding a sign which suggested he was making excuses by demanding $200 million to face his rival.

When on stage addressing the crowd, he hit back at the fan and said: “I think they have to enjoy this fight we have in front of us, which is the most important thing.

“We have to give Jaime Munguia the respect he deserves. We have to enjoy this.

“The fan standing there with the sign brings it inside since Gennady Golovkin, so they will never take it away.”

It is now the third time that the fan has been present at the traditional event, having first turned up to his trilogy fight with Golovkin in September 2022.

On that occasion, he arrived with a team Golovkin banner and a signed glove from Canelo’s Kazakh rival.

In his second attempt to antagonise the pound-for-pound star, he produced his first banner for the contest with Jermell Charlo in October 2023, which read: ‘Barbie v Monster’ comparing him to Benavidez.

The build-up now will likely continue to be dominated by talk of a challenge from Benavidez, which seems highly unlikely.

Reports indicated that Alvarez had been offered a guaranteed purse of $55 million for the fight, which his team swiftly denied.

There are a few reasons why Canelo Alvarez’s fights are always sold out. One, of course, everyone wants to see the best fighter of this era showcase his prowess in the ring. Second, the fighter knows how to put up a spectacle. Every time he walks out to take to the ring, he knows how to announce his arrival; thanks to the choice of his walkout songs.

On the 4th of May, at the iconic T-Mobile Arena of Las Vegas, Nevada, the undisputed super middleweight champion will defend his titles against the voluntary challenge of his Mexican counterpart, Jaime Munguia. As he assumes the position of the favorite for this matchup, his fans await to see the moment he undertakes his ring walk. What song will he walk to? While fans will know that only on fight night, here are some of his most iconic walkouts.

A nostalgic moment at Canelo vs. Jermell Charlo

In September last year, the Jalisco-based went against Jermell Charlo in another Las Vegas fight. For his walkout, Mexican rapper Santa Fe Klan paid tribute to late rapper Lefty SM. The rapper was killed in an armed attack in his Jalisco residence.

Santa Fe Klan was accompanied by Tornillo Vázquez for the walkout as they sang “Por mi México.” Originally, the number was sung by Santa Fe Klan and Lefty SM. The performance was poignant and powerful. The flag-bearer of Mexican culture in the boxing space, by opting for “Por mi Mexico,” Canelo represented the interests of his people. He reflected on the pain of the country that was mourning the untimely demise of Lefty SM.
