Jaime Munguia faces John Ryder live from Footprint Center in Phoenix, Arizona on Sunday, January 28 (AEDT). Mexican former world champion and British former title challenger square off in the scheduled for 12 rounds bout at super middleweight.
Munguia (40-0, 33 KOs) of Tijuana, Mexico won his previous bout last June by unanimous decision against Sergiy Derevyanchenko. The 27-year-old former WBO super welterweight champion is confident in his victory and looks to remain undefeated.
“Good afternoon to all. First of all, and again, thank you to Oscar De La Hoya, Fernando Beltran and Eddie Hearn,” said Jaime Munguia at the final pre-fight press conference. “I want to thank everybody for being here, and thanks to Freddie Roach and Wildcard Boxing Gym. This was a great camp for all of us. It’s going to help me keep moving forward to achieve my goals. I know that John Ryder is a tough fighter. He has lost and he has won close fights, but I’m ready. I’m ready to do this on Saturday. Y que viva Mexico!”
