Jaime Munguia vs. Patrick Allotey: Fight time, live stream, price, full card
Jaime Munguia pulled out a controversial majority decision over Dennis Hogan in his last fight in April, a bout many felt could have gone either way.
Munguia, who should eventually move up to middleweight, perhaps felt the rigors of making 154 pounds and still being effective in his last fight. That being said, he could go a long way in proving his thumping punching is still intact at junior middleweight with a solid performance against Allotey.
The fact that Munguia (33-0, 26 KOs) has the opportunity to do so during Mexican Independence Day makes the fight all the more sweeter, considering boxing is usually focused on Saul "Canelo" Alvarez during this time of year. Alvarez's absence during this year's Mexican Independence Day should put even more eyes on Munguia.
"I feel very happy for the opportunity of headlining a card on Sept. 14," Munguia said in a press release statement. "That's the best date for boxing in the entire year. It's a great date for Mexico because that's when we celebrate Mexican Independence Day.
“I'm proud and honored to be representing Mexico in the festivals for my country,” he continued. “I'll give my best and I'll try to deliver a great fight for all the people and for those who will see us."
The 28-year-old Allotey (40-3, 30 KOs) is coming off of six consecutive victories and will be having his second-ever pro fight in the United States.
"I respect Munguia. He is a great fighter," Allotey said. "But I'm an African warrior, so you know I'll be coming to cause a big surprise."
Will Munguia get back to his hard-hitting, dominant ways, or will Allotey take the title?
The Munguia-Allotey card was also to feature Ryan Garcia facing Avery Sparrow, but the fight was canceled when Sparrow did not show up for the weigh-in, and it was learned that he had been arrested for a prior charge. Garcia said late Friday that he'd be willing to fight Romero Duno — for the right price — but later tweeted that he would not be fighting Saturday night.
