Preview Canelo vs. Munguia
In the open-air ceremony, both boxers respectfully greeted each other again on the stage in front of the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas (Nevada), the scene of the fight.
Several thousand followers resisted under the sun of the Nevada desert to record the show with their cell phones to the sound of mariachis.
“I feel very good, I feel in my best moment because I no longer have injuries. And I am going to show it on Saturday,” Canelo said on stage.
The 33-year-old boxer from Guadalajara (west) underwent surgery on his left hand in 2022 after his loss to Dmitry Bivol, the second in his 60-fight career.
Canelo remains one of the few boxers today capable of drawing large crowds, but his career is in need of a big victory after he has failed to achieve a knockout in his last four appearances in the ring.
For the first time since 2017, the undisputed super middleweight champion will face a rival from his country, in an event framed in the Mexican festivities of May 5 and in which this time he will be accompanied on his way to the ring by the singer Luis R. Conriquez.
“I’m in my best shape ever. I’m going to give it my all. My effort, my talent. I hope all of Mexico enjoys this fight because it’s for them,” Canelo exclaimed in Toshiba Plaza, where for once he had to share the support. with his opponent.
“I’m very excited, it’s a great opportunity. I’m going to make the most of it and tomorrow I’m going to be world champion,” predicted Munguía, a fighter with a powerful punch who counts his 43 fights as victories (34 of them by knockout).
The boxer from Tijuana (northwest), six years younger and ten centimeters taller than Canelo, also celebrated that Mexico “is going to vibrate with this great fight.”
