Canelo vs Munguia DAZN PPV

Get ready for a Mexican extravaganza of epic proportions, tailor-made for Cinco de Mayo Weekend! Canelo Álvarez, the undisputed super middleweight world champion, is set to defend his title against the undefeated former world champion Jaime Munguía on May 4th at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Canelo, at 33 years old with an impressive record of 60 wins, 2 losses, and 2 draws, has vanquished a slew of elite opponents since turning pro at the tender age of 15. His only defeats? Against Bivol and the legendary Floyd Mayweather, both formidable adversaries. Meanwhile, Munguía, a 27-year-old powerhouse boasting a flawless record of 43 wins and 34 knockouts, faces his toughest challenge yet against his fellow countryman.

This showdown marks Canelo's first bout against his former promoter Oscar de la Hoya's Golden Boy Productions since their split in 2020. It's not just a clash of titans; it's history in the making.

Brandon "The Heartbreaker" Figueroa risks his Interim WBC Featherweight Title in his inaugural defense against former super bantamweight champion Jessie Magdaleno. And let's not forget the clash between undefeated WBA Welterweight Champion Eimantas Stanionis and the two-time Olympian Gabriel Maestre. This event promises not just one, but a series of heart-pounding battles that will keep fans on the edge of their seats.
