Roach Predicts Shocking Munguia KO of Canelo
The legendary trainer believes the Mexican sensation has the power and skills to dethrone the pound-for-pound king
Freddie Roach, the legendary boxing trainer who has guided Manny Pacquiao to multiple world titles, has made a bold prediction for the upcoming fight between Jaime Munguia and Canelo Alvarez. Roach believes that Munguia has the power and skills to knock out the pound-for-pound king.
I think Munguia is going to knock Canelo out, Roach said in an interview with Fight Hub TV. I think he’s got the power, he’s got the size, and he’s got the youth. Canelo is a great fighter, but he’s been in a lot of tough fights. I think Munguia is going to be too much for him.
Munguia, 26, is a rising star in the boxing world. He is undefeated in 41 fights, with 36 knockouts. He has won world titles at middleweight and super middleweight.
Canelo, 32, is one of the greatest boxers of his generation. He has won world titles in four different weight classes. He is considered the pound-for-pound king of boxing.
The fight between Munguia and Canelo is scheduled for May 6th in Las Vegas. It is one of the most anticipated fights of the year.
Why Roach believes Munguia can beat Canelo
Roach believes that Munguia has several advantages over Canelo.
- Power: Munguia is a devastating puncher. He has knocked out 36 of his 41 opponents.
- Size: Munguia is a big middleweight. He is taller and heavier than Canelo.
- Youth: Munguia is six years younger than Canelo. He is in the prime of his career.
Roach also believes that Canelo is starting to show signs of decline. He has been in some tough fights in recent years, and he has not looked as sharp as he once did.
Canelo is a great fighter, but he’s not the same fighter he was a few years ago, Roach said. He’s been in a lot of tough fights, and he’s starting to show his age. I think Munguia is going to be too much for him.
Conclusion
Roach’s prediction is a bold one. Canelo is one of the best boxers in the world, and he is the heavy favorite to beat Munguia. However, Roach is a legendary trainer who knows a thing or two about boxing.
If Roach is right, Munguia will pull off one of the biggest upsets in boxing history. It would be a changing of the guard in the middleweight division.
Kind regards
