It's Cinco de Mayo weekend, and that means the pride of Mexico, Saul "Canelo" Alvarez, is back in the ring. He faces undefeated fellow countryman Jaime Munguia on Saturday, but our boxing betting picks don't see Canelo letting down his public.Undisputed super middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez faces off against undefeated puncher Jamie Munguia in a hotly-anticipated fight, and the Mexican standoff goes down this Saturday at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Munguia is a plodder who can outlast other like-minded pressure fighters with his heavy hands, but he is open to absorbing shots all the same and hasn’t fought a technically-proficient fighter half as good as Alvarez. Also, it wasn’t that long ago when Munguia’s team was actively avoiding fights with top fighters at middleweight, such as Jermall Charlo, Demetrius Andrade, and Janibek Alimkhanuly, as they could have potentially sunk this potential mega fight.
Munguia is easy to hit, but his chin looks solid and he has always taken big shots well. If Alvarez feels like he’s getting ahead on the cards and isn’t overextending himself to find scoring opportunities as Munguia plods forward, his footwork and outside boxing ability will carry him to the finishing line.
