00:00As you received my instructions earlier, as a reminder, obey my commands at all times, protect yourself at all times.
00:05Touch him up, good luck.
00:06Munguia, 6-1 with three knockouts in widely recognized title fights, the loss coming to Canelo in what was the
00:13heaviest fight involving Mexican fighters at the time, only to be superseded by tonight's main event.
00:19But Resendiz, he is ready to successfully defend his title. This is all gas, no brakes, pressure versus pressure, and
00:28something has to give. Round number one.
00:34Will this fight steal the show on an already incredible evening of action?
00:43Double jab from Resendiz.
00:54It's interesting to see Resendiz once again come in as the betting underdog. He said he prefers it that way,
01:00it takes off the pressure.
01:02But like we said off the top, a lot of questions for Munguia. Is he as durable as he ever
01:07was? Has he made the adjustments with the new team?
01:11Yeah, so far a little tentative with that jab, Munguia. He knows that tells how he's got, he got countered
01:17and dropped and knocked out in two fights ago.
01:21By the like, Hutchin, Ronaldo Siras.
01:23Yeah. He avenged that loss in his last fight.
01:28And he looked good, but he was tentative and he's not tentative.
01:31He wanted to showcase different wrinkles, maybe as we saw Anthony Joshua after getting knocked out by Andy Ruiz, who
01:37he's completely changed his game plan in the rematch.
01:42So far in this matchup, we have, oh, left hook lands for Munguia upstairs.
01:51Yeah, Resendiz has to apply that smart pressure. So far it hasn't. He got in, he didn't do anything, and
01:56Munguia made him pay.
01:57There's a palpable tension in the building. Mexico against Mexico. Cinco de Mayo weekend, and Resendiz overhand rights against Munguia
02:07was on the ropes.
02:08They test the shin of Munguia early, test his confidence. It's a good start here for Resendiz.
02:13You both have been dropped twice in their careers. Both have been stopped. There's Munguia loading up with the left
02:20hook.
02:21Jab looking to split the guard of Resendiz.
02:23And that's what I like about Munguia. When he places his punches and he puts them together, he's really good,
02:28especially finishing to the body like he did there.
02:30It's incredible that Resendiz is 27. This is his 19th pro fight. Munguia is only two years older, yet this
02:38is his 48th professional fight.
02:40Experience cuts both ways.
02:42Like a knife, right? That is, uh, talk about turning pro on the teenage years, which is certainly what Munguia
02:49did.
02:49A lot of experience, including, as we mentioned, a Cinco de Mayo showcase against Canelo Alvarez, where Munguia won the
02:57respect of Alvarez in that performance.
03:00And Canelo turned pro at 15, so a lot of Mexican fighters turning pro in their teens.
03:04Under 30 seconds left. Of course, you have to be 18 to be slow here in America.
03:08Munguia and Resendiz tangle up on the ropes.
03:12So a, again, tactical start to the round. Munguia's thrown a lot more, but they both landed the same amount
03:22of punches, which aren't too many to start things off here.
03:26Munguia's jab looks good early, though.
03:27And that right hand landed him.
03:30Resendiz trying to work the jab.
03:36In the blue corner is Manny Robles' second fight with Resendiz.
03:42Very good, very good.
03:46Give me the mouth, please.
03:48Breathe, breathe.
03:50Okay, very first round.
03:52We're gonna go little by little.
03:57I like how you're jabbing, but remember, see, he's opening up now.
04:03Keep in mind, see that.
04:06He opens up, and when he opens up, you make him pay.
04:10But look for that distance when he goes backwards.
04:14All right, jab, jab.
04:15Little by little.
04:17And close the distance.
04:22I want to change. I want you to change.
04:24Okay, the right hand.
04:31The bell in round number two.
04:34Resendiz had just 26 amateur fights, turned pro at 18.
04:38Meanwhile, Munguia, boxing has been his long pursuit.
04:41He started sparring when he was just five years old.
04:45Missed with that wild right hand.
04:46And at 10 years old, he started fighting as an amateur, turned pro at 16,
04:50because he was too young to try and make the Mexican Olympic team.
04:54You know anything about the Mexican Olympic team, Mr. Juarez?
04:572004, Athens, Greece.
05:00Didn't medal, though.
05:01But I wish, I wish I could have.
05:03But just going to the Olympics means everything.
05:05Meanwhile, these two wanting to showcase their medal,
05:09especially the championship pedigree that both now possess.
05:13For Munguia, it's been seven years since he was a 154-pound title holder,
05:18and now putting the pressure on Resendiz behind the jab.
05:23Look, that's when Munguia's at his best,
05:25when he can set up that right hand with a hard, steady jab.
05:29Yeah, and it's a battle of the rhythm right now.
05:31Whoever fights it first, and it seems like Munguia's fighting it with that jab.
05:35He goes in, combinations, pulls back,
05:37and gets at a range of the distance where it benefits him,
05:40which is the long distance.
05:42We talk about the experience.
05:44Munguia was just 20 when he had his 19th professional fight.
05:49Minute 42 left in second.
05:55And that's how many fights Resendiz has at the age of 27.
05:58So just to give a perspective.
06:01Minute and a half left in the second.
06:03Still very much a figuring out tactics,
06:08trying to download that all-important data
06:10to see what your opponent is going to be giving you,
06:13what kind of looks you're going to see.
06:21And the biggest paychecks go to the champion.
06:23So high stakes match up here in Las Vegas.
06:30Resendiz thought he was hit low there on that hook from Munguia to the hip.
06:34Jab by Resendiz and Munguia goes to the body.
06:37Munguia, hard combinations.
06:39Has Resendiz bothered?
06:42Right hand by Munguia, sitting down on those shots.
06:46I'm liking this Munguia.
06:48Beautiful combinations.
06:49And again, he's really responsible with that defense as well.
06:52Yeah, and he's setting up his power shots so well.
06:55Look, I'm set a trap here.
06:56By Resendiz, I'm careful about trading big on the inside with him like that.
07:01Though Resendiz landed a good punch there.
07:02Jab lands and then Munguia rolls with that white.
07:07Yeah, I like that Munguia's not getting too excited.
07:10Every time he lands a punch, okay, he sets back.
07:13Gets back to the rhythm again.
07:19Munguia at range, finding those power punches.
07:22The crowd enjoying the action here in round two.
07:28A great round for the challenger.
07:35And while Armando Resendiz is defending his title for the first time, coming up in the main event,
07:42unified cruiserweight champion, Gilberto Ramirez, set to defend his two titles, looking to go 5-0 at 200 pounds.
07:51He was the first Mexican 168-pound champion, now the first Mexican 200-pound champion.
07:58And he will defend against David Benavidez, who is a light heavyweight champion, but that title is not at stake.
08:05And Benavidez opening up as a big favorite against the champion.
08:11Much to the chagrin of one Chris Maddox.
08:22And the crowd beginning to fill up the T-Mobile arena.
08:32And we are set for round number three.
08:37Again, Munguia establishing the jab in the center of the ring, fainting.
08:43Munguia looks like the bigger man, he's acted like it.
08:46And if you're Resendiz, you need the type of shot that's going to gain back some respect,
08:50allow you to take the lead with your own jabs.
08:53Yeah, Resendiz weight fluctuated from 159 and a half to 183 in his career.
09:02Yeah, Munguia's fighting really responsible.
09:04Great defense.
09:06Body shot by Munguia.
09:08And left his back to the jab and the head movement.
09:10And you can tell already how much they studied Resendiz.
09:15Munguia's showing a lot of patience here.
09:16There it is.
09:17This is where you don't want to be.
09:18Landed for Resendiz.
09:22Yeah, that's where you don't want to be if you're Munguia.
09:29Stationary stays there too long.
09:30And then Resendiz taking advantage of it.
09:32Body shots by Resendiz.
09:35Munguia finally turns.
09:38Double jab picked off by Resendiz Glove.
09:49Oh, nice combination there by Munguia.
09:52Three-punch combination that landed.
09:54Body shot lands for the challenger.
09:57And Munguia throws punches in bunches.
09:59He's so much more dangerous.
10:06Right-hand lands for Resendiz.
10:09Some good moments here from Resendiz.
10:15Yeah, he did his homework as well.
10:17He's looking for that overhead right or straight right hand to land on Munguia.
10:24Curling the left hook behind the guard is Munguia.
10:30Finding his rhythm.
10:32Minute left in the third.
10:33Goes to the body with the jab.
10:38Another left hook lands for Munguia upstairs.
10:42Munguia at the range.
10:44And again, he's backing up to the ropes, but very comfortable there.
10:47Although you don't want to lounge too long.
10:49Yeah, he's just a two jabs right there.
10:53Good volume though for Munguia this round.
10:56Yep, throwing over 60 punches.
10:59Landing 21 compared to Resendiz.
11:02Five with 30 seconds left in the round.
11:05And that was keeping Resendiz away.
11:08The combinations.
11:10The jab, there it is.
11:15Resendiz not coming in, not walking in as comfortable.
11:23Munguia wants to land that left hook.
11:32And we will hear from Eddie Reynoso, now working with Jaime Munguia.
11:40Get some air.
11:42Breathe.
11:44Get some air, get some air.
11:45Breathe.
11:47How do you feel?
11:48Good, good.
11:49Doing great.
11:51Just don't mess up.
11:54Don't stay in the ropes.
11:55You're controlling the fight in the center of the ring.
11:58Combinations.
11:58Take a step back.
12:00If you lean forward, just grab onto him.
12:03Don't stay.
12:04You hear me?
12:04You understand?
12:05Just box him.
12:06That's it.
12:07One, two, three.
12:08Get out.
12:11Upstairs.
12:12And come right back out.
12:14And high guard right away.
12:16A little bit more face when you go inside.
12:18But do not stay on the ropes, please.
12:22Munguia returning with renewed purpose under Reynoso.
12:25Calmer, more adaptable, but still hunting the knockout.
12:28There's a former Munguia opponent.
12:31Now confidant, Canelo Alvarez in attendance.
12:35He will be challenging Christian and Billy for a 168-pound title.
12:40So, watching with vested interest.
12:44Munguia going to the body.
12:47Resendee's corner thinks Munguia might be wearing down.
12:50I don't know about that.
12:52Yeah, I don't see it either.
12:54Munguia punches look quick.
12:56They look compact.
12:57Yeah, good speed.
12:58And he's at that ring.
13:00He's at the right distance.
13:01It's showing very responsible defense.
13:03Oh, we've got a clash.
13:04Her head's on his shoulder from Munguia.
13:06He's caught Munguia.
13:08Watch your head.
13:09Yeah, and if there's anyone that's going to wear down,
13:12I think it's going to be Resendee's because there's been a lot of body work from Munguia.
13:16And he's the bigger fighter.
13:18Munguia.
13:21Munguia maintains the range.
13:24Good defense.
13:27Bobbing and weaving.
13:31Fans chanting Toro.
13:37In support of the champion, but if there's also cheers for Munguia, of course.
13:41Yeah, you got to turn this fight into, make it into a dogfight if you're Resendee's.
13:44Oh, left hook lands upstairs for Munguia.
13:49He's giving Munguia all the space, you think, all the space to let his punches go.
13:55Good punch placement, punch variety, and again, enough cannot be said about the defense of Munguia.
14:01No question about it.
14:02I mean, look, you can argue here that Munguia has built a nice lead to start this fight,
14:07but don't forget, Resendee's rallied in the second half against Caleb Plant when he pulled
14:12that upset as a 9-1 betting underdog last year.
14:15Now, oh, it's a good body work.
14:16Beautiful combination by Resendee's.
14:19Right uppercut, left hook to the body.
14:22Chopping right hand by Munguia.
14:23Left hook by Munguia lands to the head of Resendee's.
14:27Just over a minute left in the fourth, and it's picking up.
14:34What do you make of Munguia backing up into the ropes on his own?
14:38Setting a trap?
14:39Could be.
14:40Could be just taking his foot off the gas a little bit,
14:42knowing that Resendee's likes to rally at the end of each round,
14:45but what I love about Munguia is he's taking command of the opening minute of each round
14:49and setting a really nice tone.
14:51And he is showing that calm composure, Abner.
14:55He is definitely showing a more mature side to the Munguia fight game.
14:59A lot more experience as well for Munguia, and you're seeing it right now.
15:03He's taking control of this fight, and, yeah,
15:05there's those moments when he sits on the ropes that he gives out Munguia's advantages.
15:14Great combination, and Munguia opening up on Resendee's,
15:20and Resendee's comes back with a right hand,
15:23and the jab lands for Resendee's.
15:26Oh, it's heating up.
15:26It's championship action, tailor-made to your satisfaction.
15:39How do you feel?
15:41Do you feel this punch?
15:43Nothing?
15:44Everything good?
15:44Okay.
15:46It's really important.
15:51It's really important to start picking up the pace, okay?
15:54Because you're staying.
15:56Listen, he's making us miss a lot.
15:58But you gotta, when he misses too, you gotta make him pay.
16:02Listen, when he goes to the body,
16:04you gotta counter right away when he goes to the body.
16:08You understand?
16:11He goes to the body, you counterpunch.
16:15When he gives you the distance, you come back with your own punches.
16:20He's there.
16:21If he stays there, you go back with your own two.
16:23One, two.
16:25Boxing royalty on hand,
16:27and the first five-division champion in boxing history,
16:32the one and only Thomas Hitman Hearns,
16:36the Motor City Cobras in the house,
16:39and Hagler Hearns, enough said.
16:41Enough said.
16:42Round number five.
16:50Big advantage.
16:52Total power punches through five rounds for Munguilla.
16:57I know what you might be saying,
16:59looking at the matinee idol looks of race and ease.
17:02Is that ageless actor Mario Lopez in boxing ambassador?
17:06It turns out it isn't,
17:07but Toro told us he gets mistaken publicly regularly for that.
17:11And he said, as long as you don't ask for a save-by-the-bell selfie,
17:14he's happy to meet with you.
17:24Munguilla moving side to side.
17:28Xenides trying to cut it off.
17:31Interesting strategy by Munguilla right now.
17:35And the fans are not not enjoying it
17:40Yeah, not their you know boxing style that they like they want the inside fight, but it's so good
17:44It's working for media
17:46You want to give those angles to resendence, but I'm not seeing no jab or no effort right now from
17:52Resendence to try to cut off the ring
17:54On the inside by one gear left up to the liver by
17:57McGill well-placed
18:00execution
18:02Mungi are sorry. Excuse me race indeed simply can't win rounds with this level of output. He's got to let
18:08his hands go
18:09Yeah, he's just following him right now. He's not
18:1216 punches thrown that way through round isn't good to connects not great. Oh
18:18Nice jab from both fighters
18:21Again on the ropes interesting strategy
18:24Jab to the midsection by moon Gia Z looks to backwards and he's up wants to set up that right
18:30hand. There it is
18:32I don't you more. Yeah
18:35Well, yes at moon Gia said the advantage that he has and this is his distance and his ability to
18:40use rhythm
18:41He's really doing that
18:43Runging in with the jab setting up for home for that right hand
18:48I'm liking that I'm liking this for moon Gia. He's changing the speed on the punches
18:53Combinations are thrown them different ways up with those body shots
18:57And again staying responsible with that with that defense the strategy of him on the ropes
19:01I'm keep bringing it up at me. I think what's the deal there?
19:04I think he's that's Marty. He's trying to lower
19:06We send us into something he wants to get we send his walking in with the right hand
19:11Yeah, I think it's to set up that counter right hand
19:13There it is the counter punch and now
19:15Goes to the body
19:21And he clearly believes he has the speed advantage
19:30We are through five rounds in this 168 pound championship fight speaking of 168 pound champions the youngest to ever
19:40win a
19:41168 pound title at the age of 20 David Benavidez was a two-time
19:47Undefeated champ at 168 now is enough champion at 175 but he's looking to make history tonight as he challenges
19:55Gilberto Ramirez for the 200 pound title looking to become the only fighter to win major titles at 168
20:02175 and 200 Cinco de Mayo weekend is all about history
20:08David Benavidez is chasing it coming up in tonight's main event as a huge crowd is
20:14convened here in a very convivial atmosphere the Mexican people of course a proud and they celebrate what went down
20:22May 5 1862 when the
20:24Mexican people showed that indomitable spirit thwarting the French in the Battle of Puebla
20:30We have the battle of resendez versus munguilla and round number six. I love when you get historical
20:36Or is it hysterical either
20:48Our unofficial score Larry hazard has
20:52Munguilla up 49 of 46
20:54Beautiful right uppercut in the left hook to the body
20:58Munguilla really starting to paint like the impressive
21:02portrait here of punishment
21:05He's not taking unnecessary shots to do that. That's the real key look the skills have been there
21:10The toughness has always been there, but in light of that upset knockout two fights ago
21:15We had some questions boy. He's answering those questions at the midway point here
21:21Yeah, he definitely is I mean the like more mentioned earlier, you know, you left in room state
21:26She knew learn from fights that you knew saying that if we were are seeing that in India
21:30I would see a different one gear really responsible with this combination with this defense
21:35Billy police relaxed even at moments when he's on the ropes
21:41The counter left hook there from India
21:50Resendee is unable to put any combinations together missing more than he's connecting and munguilla comes back off the ropes
21:59Resendee's trying to fight fire with fire a minute and a half left in the sixth
22:12This is the positioning the resendee's wise triple up
22:15For cut five uppercuts on six uppercuts by resendee's on the inside
22:30Starting to just look down a little bit starting to breathe out of his mouth a lot more
22:37There's a flame yet a nice combination put together by munguilla
22:45Right uppercut left hook to the body
22:49Beautiful combination munguilla never allows resendee's to build any type of momentum outside of one punch
22:55And that's very key to slowing down any potential momentum swings. Yeah, it's just when you feel that resendee's is
23:01getting into something
23:02Him will get comes back with those counter punches result requests and again resetting
23:14Oh
23:21We have reached the midway point of this one hundred and sixty eight pound title fight
23:27champion Armando Resendee's
23:29Challenger Jaime Munguilla
23:32But enough of us droning on and on Brian. Let's enjoy the view from the drone
23:44Oh
23:51Abner, what do you make of the drone shot?
23:54I like it special night makes for a special camera. I like this like the view a lot of people
23:59already here call me an event
24:01I wonder if those were Benavidez fans that were throwing a little booze Canelo's way earlier
24:12Well, that was the the one fight everyone wanted to see of 168
24:17Canelo and the Benavidez and for whatever reason never came to fruition
24:22But what has Benavidez done? Oh, he's make his own history amen more than proven himself worthy
24:33Round and number seven let's get quick thoughts for six from Chris and Joe
24:42Okay, Chris and Joe
24:47On second thought we'll just continue doing our commentary
24:52Munguilla and Resendee's in the center of the ring now the jab from Munguilla
24:58Looking to load up with that right hand
25:03We're entering have a look it's the midpoint of the fight
25:06But how soon are we going to be entering critical territory?
25:09We're freezing these can't start to win three four rounds in a row
25:13He's gonna have to hurt Munguilla and he's gonna have to land some pretty sizable shots
25:17Yeah, it's time for him to change the gear we send he's got to step it up a lot more
25:21Just following Munguilla around the ring
25:25And unable to put together any sustained attack and Munguilla really showing up the real estate. Yeah
25:32Yeah, you got to give it give it to Munguilla not making it easy for Resendee's to just
25:36You know cut off the ring because he's moving really well
25:39And when you think Resendee's might have a potential advantage with Munguilla on the ropes
25:44It's Munguilla who's doing the more effective work
25:46And I think that's also part of the disciplining that he's done
25:49I think Resendee's is thinking twice about letting go even when Munguilla's backed into the ropes
25:54Because that quick right hand is always there the hand speed on display from Jaime Munguilla
26:00And again, he's just
26:02The wild thing is Resendee's follows him
26:06to the ropes
26:11And the jab keeping Resendee's at bay
26:16Can't ask for a much better start for the challenger Jaime Munguilla here tonight brian
26:21It's exactly the type of performance he needed
26:24But you do know that rally will be coming soon from Resendee's
26:28Well, we saw what happened against Caleb Plant where he came on strong in the second half of the fight
26:33to pull off the upset of the year last year
26:37But here we are with less than a minute left in the seventh
26:40It's time to make that necessary adjustment. It's time to turn on the
26:46Offensive guns for Resendee's
26:49But it's Munguilla with the effect of body work
26:53Resendee's is thinking too much
26:55Not letting his hands go
26:58Munguilla landing these thudding shots at her
27:01Yeah
27:02The only thank you right now that we said he's doing is how do I get away from these punches?
27:06Well, you could you could help himself by not just following
27:09Munguilla straight into the ropes
27:11But I mean that you gotta get to Munguilla
27:13I mean that the speed is a lot sometimes for Resendee's
27:16Even if he's moving his head
27:17Resendee's is squaring himself up
27:19He's telegraphic
27:20Munguilla in the hollow ropes
27:21Come on, man
27:29Through seven rounds it remains Jaime Munguilla's fight
27:40He's got some air
27:41Get some air
27:42We did
27:44We got to
27:45How do you feel?
27:46We got to close the rounds
27:48We got to win them round by round but close the rounds
27:52We had a great preparation we did a lot of rounds
27:55So this is nothing for you, okay?
27:59Let's go
28:04That's america
28:08And this is munguilla going to work with the fast combinations there he missed the body shot
28:13But he came back with that hook
28:15Little step back
28:17Reset and he was doing that and has been doing that all fight
28:22We are seeing a continuation of what munguilla showed in the rematch
28:27against saras more
28:30Composure a more mature
28:32performance
28:34Measuring and showing that discipline and the showing the belief in himself
28:38This is not the exact body language he had in the saras rematch where he was still
28:42Feeling a few things out learning on the job here to adapt to eddie reno so style first fight together
28:48was the rematch
28:49This has been a very commanding performance while still being responsible enough to limit resendee's his moments
28:55All right, let's hear a quick comment from chris and joe and what they've seen thus far
29:02Okay, maybe the third time will be the charm guys we'll try again later
29:09Resendee's and munguilla more importantly
29:21So resendee's early in this round try to throw some looping shots
29:26Anything to try to give a different look to munguilla
29:32That's that hand drop but just setting the trap wanting resendee's to come in so he can counter with the
29:37right
29:39The crowd trying to rally both fighters
29:43Munguilla very patient very composed and again effective with that right uppercut left hook combination
29:49It's like a laser the right hand to the face of resendee's the accuracy of munguilla's power shots are really
29:55starting to
29:57show its effect
29:59Yeah, then it's only one shot two shots from resendee's so definitely a lot easier for munguilla counter punch
30:12He's just standing in front of him thinking too much too long for resendee's
30:19Got to step in with double jab getting into the close range
30:24Munguilla getting closer and closer with that right uppercut and that was sweeping short left hook continues to touch the
30:31chin of resendee's final minute of the eighth
30:37Resendee's absorbing all kinds of punishment from jaime munguilla
30:44Resendee's maiden voyage is 168 pound belt holder munguilla looking to become a two division champion
30:56And back to the ropes we go
30:59Double right by
31:01Resendee's having a little success here that he has to make munguilla pay for giving up that real estate
31:20By any measure it has been all jaime munguilla through eight rounds of this championship fight
31:53We've got four more rounds
31:56And listen
31:59There's a lot of close rounds
32:01And a lot of rounds that i saw you lost okay
32:04Keep that in mind
32:06We've been working hard for this come on
32:09The right hand the right hand we worked on that it's open
32:14Listen when he gives you that real estate when he sits on the ropes please work
32:19Let those punches go okay
32:22Through eight rounds the defending champion armando resendee's has landed single digits in every round
32:30They look like two different levels these two fighters in this fight up to this point
32:35And we are into round number nine
32:39And resendee's a little more aggressive to start
32:41Stay off his head
32:43Remember it's been a seven year gap since munguilla was a world champion
32:48Making up for lost time and he's had some ups he has had some downs but he looks as
32:52Confident and complete here as maybe since we've seen since he won his first world title in 2018
32:58At 154 pounds against the dollar
33:05Yeah, this is with down without the best i've seen from munguilla right now
33:08But ran resendee's and manny robles they they got to come up with a plan b and c and d
33:16Yeah, man it's not working banny tried to bring a little bit of urgency in the corner between rounds they're
33:21going to need more than a little here
33:22Yeah
33:24And it's it's just not making any adjustments not even trying
33:29Not even trying and even when the opportunities there for resendee's he does not take advantage not to say he's
33:34not trying to fight
33:35He's trying but he's not
33:37Like you say he's overthinking sure and at times just
33:41Yeah, just allowing himself to fall into the
33:44the house
33:45And i'm very impressed with munguilla's defense tonight and it's also the speed of munguilla's
33:51Counter combinations that have made resendees overthink these exchanges
33:56Again so much tread on the tires of jaime munguilla 29 years old but in his 48th professional fight with
34:0435 knockouts
34:06He's been there done that and looking tonight
34:11To become a champion once again
34:13And so far
34:15The game plan has worked very well
34:18It turns out you can teach i don't call him an old dog he's 29 years old but oh my
34:23bunch instead
34:23Yeah, you can teach him some new tricks this could be the start of a second chapter in the career
34:29of munguilla here
34:42He's been down twice in his career
34:4645 left in the ninth
34:49Resendee's framing with his left
34:52Munguilla hitting them in the right and munguilla saying well wait a minute he hit me behind that first
34:57Referee saying okay enough of that guys
35:00Harvey dock
35:02Anytime you don't mention the referee's name means he's done a great job. Yeah, I've got one of the best
35:06in the game
35:09And the chance of munguilla
35:13Ringing out throughout t-mobile arena fans feeling he's on the verge of becoming a champion again
35:26As instincts after the reflexes they're still there
35:30Yeah, everything's there
35:31Oh right hand lands square on the button at the bell and canelo's on his feet
35:39Sporting a jaime munguilla shirt let's go to jim gray
35:44All right, canelo. Thank you very much. What is it that you see so far and what is your assessment?
35:50No, I think Jaime is is winning. He's winning. He's he's doing a good job. So
35:56I'm glad to be here. I'm nervous, but uh look
35:59What do you what do you think has enabled this domination so far? No, he did a good job in
36:04the gym
36:05He he learned a lot and and I'm glad to be here to see
36:09All what he learned in the gym doing here in the in the fight
36:13And what have you been able to teach him and impress upon him to get him better?
36:17I always try to to give advice, you know, evie reynoso is the one who teach him and
36:22And he did a good job. Thank you canelo appreciate it. Thank you. Mauro back to you. Thanks a lot,
36:27Jim
36:27And i'm sure munguilla learned a lot going 12 rounds with canelo alvarez
36:32Round at number 10
36:34Keep it clean. Let's go does resendies
36:39Have anything
36:41In his arsenal to try to turn the tables because munguilla is imposing his will and skills
36:52He hasn't shown it up to this point and I wonder if munguilla sits down in some of these combinations
36:56if he can get a knockout
36:57If he can get resendies out of here and make an even larger statement to what he's already done
37:02For nine rounds unofficial scorer larry hazard has munguilla ahead by a wide margin
37:10Can't argue that chris manix also has it
37:15Way ahead for munguilla
37:18No surprise there
37:20Although
37:22In boxing the judges have more than surprised us in the past but two minutes left here in the 10th
37:29Yeah, to answer what you asked earlier mo can he i think he can do can no does he have
37:36it yeah
37:36He does uh resendies, but can he do it? I don't think he can
37:39Munguilla just took control over you know since round one and two and and it's been uh munguilla all night
37:47Munguilla really sitting down on those punches and to brian campbell's point
37:53If he sits down on them even more he could very well get his 36th knockout because these shots are
38:00so precise
38:01This is the craftsman era of munguilla's career
38:06Leaning on his experience to see yeah leaning on his technique
38:11And what do you make of this now going back on his uh is this more mind games abner definitely
38:17he is
38:17I mean he knows he's winning the fight so he's just making resendies following me he's already got him frustrated
38:23mentally
38:24Resendies so he's just it's just hank lane
38:28Resendies doesn't have the confidence to come in and empty empty against him and let his hands go because he's
38:33tasted that power
38:34Yeah resendies can counter punch but if you don't give him those opportunities
38:37He's he's going to be a little bit tentative in front of you
38:41And again always easier to say than do but
38:45What does resendies need to try out here double jab triple jab get in the inside when he gets the
38:51opportunity
38:51Let those punches fly like that there it is even if you miss you keep trying
39:01You get right on it making an ugly fight
39:08Right uppercut left hook to the body's been a money combo for munguilla throughout the fight
39:16And we saw there was times where munguilla was getting tired
39:19But again you know just saying he's getting a lot of space to think and breathe
39:40Right
39:42Recover get some really good round catch some air breathe in first
39:49He's got six
39:51Six minutes
39:53He's going to do what he's been trying to do all fight
39:55Just to catch it with one shot
39:58All you have to do is what you've been doing
40:01Ten rounds
40:02Long distance, jab, right hand
40:07If he comes in and if you lose the distance
40:10Hold him, grab him and then turn him
40:13Feint
40:14And then come back right with your one-two
40:16Two more rounds
40:19He's going to come out with everything, okay?
40:22Heading into the championship rounds
40:25Armando Resendiz
40:27Nascent reign
40:29Very much in jeopardy
40:31Round 11
40:37Mogucia mugging Resendiz
40:39Unloading the right and the left
40:41Measuring him up
40:46Resendiz unable to take his head off center line and he just continues to follow
40:52Mungucia
40:52I love when Mungucia sets a tone like this in the first 30 seconds of the round
40:57Lands some big combinations
40:59Slows down the resolve of Resendiz
41:06And if you're Mungucia right now, you want to use that aggression to your advantage
41:10From his stand is catching with their right hand counter
41:12You know, he's gonna come in
41:14He's gonna commit so either the upper cut or the right hand for Mungucia
41:21Said before we'll say it again and he looks like a different fighter
41:23And that is a credit to him and his team
41:26And Eddie Reynoso
41:27And the work they put in
41:28And Canelo
41:29Yeah, the influence of Canelo in camp
41:31That's a gift to say the least
41:34If you can use it to your advantage the way Mungucia has
41:40And for it to happen in a relatively short period of time
41:43Sure
41:44Going from opponent to teammate
41:46Nice combination
41:48By Mungucia
41:49Rips to the body with the left hand
41:52Resendiz
41:54Unable to
41:55Even attempt to solve the puzzle
41:57That is Mungucia
41:59He hasn't even opened the box yet
42:01No, and his offense has been a little bit too plotting and predictable
42:04Yes, plotting is the operative word
42:10And if you allow Mungucia to fight at range like this
42:14Are you bored?
42:16Is he dangerous?
42:16Are we going to see Mungucia
42:18Try to close the show after on Cinco de Mayo weekend
42:22Avenging a loss on Cinco de Mayo weekend to Canelo Alvarez
42:26I hope we do
42:27Like Brian mentioned
42:29Once he goes and lets his punches go
42:33You got to give it a second, third try for Mungucia
42:36And he perhaps can knock out Resendiz
42:46There it is
42:47You got to follow it up if you're Mungucia
42:49I always felt like Mungucia has been thinking about his chin at all
42:52Like he is showing bravado, confidence, poise
42:55Like every person
42:56And he's not been given any reason to work
42:58Sure
43:07So how much is it
43:09Mungucia's improvements
43:10And how much is it
43:12That potentially Resendiz hits a ceiling
43:17I think you'll see improvement
43:18For Mungucia
43:21I agree
43:24Are you surprised by Resendiz's performance, Brian?
43:27Or is it just thanks to the virtuosic performance?
43:30I am a little bit surprised
43:31But it's fueled by Mungucia's performance
43:33No question
43:3612 and final round is here
43:42And a huge crowd has gathered here
43:46Sorry, I'm here
43:47Go ahead
43:50Leave it all
43:51Everything
43:53We got to go with everything
43:54But close your guard, okay?
43:57Really close
43:58Really close
43:59But get inside
44:00You understand?
44:02Body
44:02Lift him with the uppercuts
44:06Listen, be careful
44:07He can catch you with a crazy punch
44:12Faint, faint, box him
44:13This is how you're going to mess him up
44:14With boxing
44:15Okay?
44:16Catch him when he comes in
44:18And more faints
44:19Go!
44:20Let's go!
44:22I made Mungucia
44:23Three minutes or less
44:25From becoming
44:27A two-division champion
44:29Does Armando Resendiz
44:32Have it within him
44:33To land a Hail Mary
44:36Here in the twelfth and final round
44:39He is down by nine points
44:42An unofficial scorecard
44:43Of Larry Hazard
44:44Resendiz needs the knockout
44:47While I'm sure Mungucia
44:50Would love the KO
44:51To solidify this
44:53To tremendous performance
44:54No question about it
44:56Mungucia definitely needs
44:57To be smart here
44:58But use the aggression
45:00Of Resendiz against him
45:02And maybe there's a big moment
45:04To be had
45:04To close the show
45:17But to answer your question
45:19Earlier Mo
45:19To some degree
45:20We are seeing the limits
45:22Of Resendiz's offense
45:24But same thing
45:25With what happened
45:26To Mungucia
45:27He's got an opportunity
45:28To go back to camp
45:29Go back to the drawing board
45:30And continue to round out
45:31His skills
45:41Strategy remains
45:42The same
45:42Mungucia backs himself
45:44To the ropes
45:44And fires off combinations
45:46And avoids the return fire
45:48From Resendiz
45:49Resendiz got clipped
45:52A world class performance
45:54From Jaime Mungucia
45:55Just 29 years of age
46:00And yet
46:01In his 48th professional fight
46:04A minute and a half away
46:06From becoming a two division champion
46:10Seven years
46:11After winning his first title
46:18Mungucia turns him around
46:20Just cuffing Resendiz
46:23Unloading on Resendiz
46:24Backing him up
46:25Resendiz gets caught
46:27With a left hook
46:28Just over a minute left
46:30Mungucia looking for
46:31The highlight reel finish
46:33He's got plenty of time
46:41Nothing would be sweeter
46:43For Jaime Mungucia
46:45Than a Cinco de Mayo
46:47Weekend KO
46:48To become champion again
47:06Mungucia
47:07Mungucia unloading
47:08On Resendiz
47:09Who can take a shot
47:13This is great stuff
47:15Unbelievable drama
47:17T-Mobile Arena
47:20Resendiz
47:21Resendiz
47:22Trying desperately
47:23Throne Cork
47:24The mother of all punches
47:26But what a performance
47:29From Jaime Mungucia
47:38Canelo is feeling it
47:41And there is no way
47:43This can go
47:46Any way
47:47Except for Jaime Mungucia
47:49Brian Campbell
47:50Championship
47:50How do you have it on your scorecard
47:52After 12
47:5211 rounds to 1
47:54In favor of Jaime Mungucia
47:56Championship form
47:58Restored
48:00At least on this scorecard
48:02We've seen
48:02The updates from Larry Hazard
48:04Scorecard
48:05Let's see if the three judges
48:06Have the same
48:07But you talk about
48:08Restoring confidence
48:10In your name
48:11At the elite level
48:12Seven years removed
48:14From holding a world title
48:15Jaime Mungucia
48:17Looked like a champion
48:20This evening
48:33And let's look back
48:35Back at the replays
48:35Of this fight
48:36Mungucia beating
48:38Resendiz
48:39To the punch
48:39Throughout
48:40The quicker hand speed
48:41The right hand counters
48:43The combinations
48:45Resendiz was game throughout
48:47He landed single punches
48:48But when you let
48:50Mungucia
48:50This version of him
48:51Fight at middle distance
48:53Get extension on his shots
48:55It was the poise
48:57It was the defense
48:57But boy
48:58Was it the speed
48:59And power
49:03They were simply
49:04On two different levels
49:05Over these 12 rounds
49:09Mungucia
49:10Burst onto the scene
49:12At 21
49:13With a shocking
49:15TKO of Saddam Ali
49:16To win the title
49:17At 154
49:18Vacated the belt
49:20After five successful defenses
49:21Challenged that man
49:23Canelo
49:23For the undisputed
49:25Super middleweight title
49:26Lost a 12 round decision
49:28On Cinco de Mayo
49:29Weekend 2024
49:30But he has fought
49:32His way back
49:33To another championship
49:35Opportunity
49:36And the numbers
49:37And what we witnessed
49:38Tonight
49:39Leads me to believe
49:40That Jaime Mungucia
49:42Is walking out
49:43Of Las Vegas
49:44A two division champion
49:46Let's see if
49:47Jimmy Lennon Jr
