Canelo Alvarez will once again be fighting on the weekend of "Cinco de Mayo" against another Mexican, not David Benavidez but Jaime Munguia. He has once said that he won't be fighting another Mexican but with the reason unknown to anyone, here he is now fighting Munguia lol.

~ He has once said that he won't be fighting another Mexican but with the reason unknown to anyone, here he is now fighting Munguia lol.
I was thinking maybe a changing of the guard and Canelo wanted a fellow Mexican to take over but there's also the fact that Munguia is being promoted by Golden Boy. That's probably more of a reason why he agreed to the fight. It seems he's still not cool with Oscar De La Hoya and he wants to beat the face of their promotion.

He has no choice, his choice of fighting Jermall Charlo is not going to make money for his promoters PBC, and he doesn't want the name Binavidez to come out of the shortlist so he is fighting Munguia.
Munguia is good, young, and aggressive with potential but he's not the one who's going to dethrone Canelo on his thrown, all I can be sure of is he will give Canelo a good fight and he might even score an upset, we all thought Bivol has no chance but he did beat Canelo.

I think this could start the healing process between Oscar and Canelo. They can't avoid that fact that they have been once a dream tandem, Canelo works under Oscar and so they have build a bond before. But we all know that maybe someone or something had happen between the two and Canelo severe his ties with GBP.
However, choosing Munguia over Benavidez? doesn't make sense as we, fight fans around the world wanted Canelo to test himself against the Mexican Monster David Benavidez.

I don't think he will give Benavidez a chance unless all the organization make him a mandatory opponent, Benavidez is just so huge and a pressure fighter that Canelo cannot keep up with the size advantage, Benavidez will just smoke Canelo and Canelo want to stay undisputed as long as he can, he wants to enjoy those titles as long as he can even to the extend of avoiding fighters that has a chance to beat him.

Maybe Canelo chooses Munguia as to humiliate the Golden Boy top honcho, Oscar De La Hoya as like what @ Zed0X has said, Munguia is the face of Golden Boy Promotions and we all knew that his relationship with that promotional company was not good. I just hope that after this fight, if victorious he will fight David Benavidez to settle the score with him this September.

That's one of the likely reasons but if he loses against Munguia he will be the one getting humiliated, Munguia is hungry, and Canelo can beat Munguia he must need to underestimate him, Munguia like Benavidez has been chasing Canelo, if he beats Canelo he will be the new face of Mexican boxing.
If he beats Munguia the boxing community and hopefully the various boxing organizations will demand Canelo to fight Benavidez.

Munguia's last performance wasn't so impressive, might also be one of the factors why Team Canelo chooses him to be his next opponent. The one characteristic that i admire with Canelo is that he doesn't underestimate his opponent, he always trains hard for his every fight.
I have a feeling that his next fight after beating Munguia will be the winner of Arthur vs Bivol as that was really his goal, to be the undisputed champion of the LHW division.

He has to go first to David Benavidez, hehehe.
That's what the fans what for Canelo, if he talks about his cementing his legacy in this sports. Team Canelo though might be looking for easy fight but huge paycheck for Canelo. So maybe after beating the young Munguia, he might be looking for the next young opponent in Berlanga.
So that will be another easy fight for Canelo, he is the A-side and could be like 80% taking the purse in those 2 fights.

Risky path for Canelo, he might not meet the winner of Bivol vs Beterbiev because Benavidez is such a live and tough opponent.

If after beating Munguia and he chooses Berlanga then he could loss me as a fan hehe. How could he do that, i mean Edgar Berlanga hasn't achieved anything yet so why the heck fight him. But still it would be easy money if they go that way and not minding what the boxing community wants.

He is not only the mandatory for Canelo's WBC belt, he is also the interim WBC belt champion, Canelo is their regular champion. And if WBC is not that corrupt, they can order Canelo to fight David Benavidez to settle the score and to have one champion already. But I guess they don't or can't force the cash cow on who he wanted to fight next. After all, he is a beloved Mexican warrior so for sure Sulaiman and the WBC are at Canelo's mercy as he can dictate who and where and what division he wanted to fight without sanctioning bodies enforcing the so called mandatory defense.

Very true, the Sulaimans are treating Canelo as if he is their son hehe. One reason that i think Canelo avoided Benavidez is that he will not gain anything from fighting him, i mean the magnitude of the fight for him is not so important as he will lose everything while gain nothing. Fighting Munguia and Berlanga next is just a business decision and not for cementing his legacy.

But with that mindset, Canelo is no longer looking for his legacy. He will have to gain a lot from beating the young Benavidez, just like when he beat Triple-G before, there's a lot in line, legacy, settling for who is the best in their generation. But choosing a young Munguia, of course there is money here and I think that's what Canelo is looking for as he might be thinking of retiring soon. He want's as much as he can squeeze to whoever his promotions will be. So another easy fight for Canelo and then $100 million in his pocket. And then in September Berlanga is next, same thing, easy fight and easy money.

At this stage of his career, Canelo has limited options now as he is not young anymore. They are playing with calculated risk as they say and cementing his legacy might not be in their minds anymore unless they change their mind and fight Benavidez or the winner of Arthur vs Bivol.

From what I observed, it's possible that he might be thinking of his possible exit from boxing and he want his health to be intact and then at the same time, still making good money. He will be making it from a Munguia or Berlanga match for this year. And then maybe in 2025, he might be thinking of his options already to quit. I just hope that before he hang his gloves he will at least fight Bivol or Benavidez for his last fight. Might be good on how he ends his career.

Absolutely, it will bring some spark to his legacy if he fight either Benavidez or Bivol or Beterbiev as that what really the boxing community wants. If the rich people of Saudi Arabia will promote this fight then that would be a fortune for both of the fighters, Canelo and his opponent.

Or maybe Canelo is like acting "hard to get" so that his stock will continue to go higher and the Saudis are going to offer him huge money for a fight with either Benavidez or Bivol for a rematch. That's the thing though with being the boxing face and cash cow, he can dictate his terms and has total control of his career. Specially after he left GBP, his career decision and money went off the road with his DAZN contract and with Eddie Hearn or PBC even if just 1 fight.

Canelo said in an interview that it would take "150-200 million USD" for him to fight Benavidez, that's a lot of money and i think no promoters will give out that kind of amount for him even the billionaires of Saudi Arabia won't take that bait. This only shows that he is not keen on fighting Benavidez as of this time.

Hehehe, but who knows? maybe the billionaires in Saudi is willing to pay Canelo with that big money to fight Benavidez. David though will really need to prove himself. I mean if you look at who's who the Saudi's wanted to see and fight in their country, they are all big names.
So maybe is Benavidez won at 175 lbs and then faces the winner of Bivol vs Beterbiev. Then maybe the Saudi might be swayed to believed that Benavidez also deserves a good paycheck vs Canelo in the future.

Yeah, that would be a good route for David Benavidez to fight Canelo in the future. David must proved himself that he deserve to face Canelo by defeating the winner of Bivol vs Beterbiev match-up. On the other hand, if that dream fight happen and indeed David will win then this might be the reason also that Canelo will chicken-out on fighting Benavidez hehe.

This fight is going to happen, I see this fight maybe in 2025. It's just Canelo wanting Benavidez to win more and so it's worth for him to give him the ticket to fight him.
And it could be that David Benavidez doesn't have the fans based that Munguia has. Munguia is young and has the looks to back up his boxing skills. As compare to Benavidez who might not have the fan base yet although he is a champion and the future of boxing. So everything for Canelo is business and the most money that he can take home.

And now fighting a Mexican which totally contradicts what he said before. So for me, Canelo as I have said is full of contradiction and just wanted to fight not for legacy but for the money. And he seems to be excluded by the broker in Saudi Arabia. While the likes of Bivol and Beterbiev and now Benavidez are being appreciated and they are getting career paychecks fighting in the Middle East.

Yes, for boxing fans, it doesn't make sense as Canelo is no longer chasing greatness as he think that he has achieved it already. And so with that, he is looking for less risk higher rewards.
Canelo is not getting any younger as well, he has wear and tear already and that's why he wanted to avoid Benavidez at all cost without damaging his health and at the same time making good money. And I guess he will stand with that $150m-$200m money he want to fight Benavidez but not sure if here will be a promoter that is willing to give him that big money.

The great Chavez Sr. is not like that even in his old age he still fighting young warriors, Canelo just wants to make a lot of money right now because he knows that his time will be over because there are a lot of past rising fighters like David Morell, but he cannot keep ignoring good fighters like Benavidez he will eventually have to deal with him or retire because he will run out of second-grade opponents.

Yes, for boxing fans, it doesn't make sense as Canelo is no longer chasing greatness as he think that he has achieved it already. And so with that, he is looking for less risk higher rewards.
Canelo is not getting any younger as well, he has wear and tear already and that's why he wanted to avoid Benavidez at all cost without damaging his health and at the same time making good money. And I guess he will stand with that $150m-$200m money he want to fight Benavidez but not sure if here will be a promoter that is willing to give him that big money.

Yep, different era but still they wanted to fight the best and that's why the 80's-90's are one of the best eras in boxing. We can partly blame Floyd as in the early 2000's when he decided to be his own manager and talks about making huge money and not pleasing the fans regardless of who he will be fighting.
And that's trickle to this generation, including Canelo who knows looks for money purse instead of cementing his legacy by fighting Benadivez or even having a rematch with Bivol.

They are cut on a different breed, that's where we got the Mexican warrior, and I think the last boxers that we have seen is MAB, Morales and JMM. After that, all Mexicans like becoming not soft but cherry picking fights.
There is a argument though that why Benavidez not fighting Morell. I think the answer could be that Morell is not known as compare to Benavidez who has a following in the US already and Mexican heritage and so Canelo should fight him instead of Jaime Munguia.

I read that why Canelo give Munguia the chance and not Benavidez is that Jaime is respectful to Canelo as compare to the Benavidez who really attack hm personally. They now even joke that the next time they see or negotiate with Canelo, they will bring him flowers. So that is another attack so now sure if Canelo will give what they deserve.
Munguia being Mexican said that one of his idol is Canelo. But don't get him wrong though, he will do his best when him and Canelo face in the ring this Cinco De Mayo weekend.
