WBO super welterweight champion Jaime Munguia had a smorgasbord of options before him for his third fight of 2019, including Canelo Alvarez, Gennadiy Golovkin, long-discussed foe Jessie Vargas, or previous opponent Dennis Hogan. With Canelo still juggling his options after losing his IBF belt, Golovkin being ordered to face Sergiy Derevyanchenko, the Vargas talks stalling, and Hogan gearing up to fight Erickson Lubin, however, he’s had to look elsewhere. Zona ESPN’s Fernando Beltran claims Munguia will be the first major Mexican fighter actually competing on Mexican Independence Day weekend, facing Ghana’s Patrick Allotey on September 14th in Carson, California’s Dignity Health Sports Park.
Ryan Garcia’s recently announced bout with Avery Sparrow will serve as the co-feature on DAZN. This is despite Garcia’s insistence that he compete in a main event.
Allotey (40-3, 30 KO), the WBO #12 super welterweight, doesn’t figure to pose a threat. He’s lost every time he’s fought quality opposition, suffering knockout defeats to Charles Manyuchi and Patrick Teixeira alongside a decision loss to Kanat Islam. He also stands three inches shorter than Munguia (33-0, 26 KO), just to complete the mismatch.
Of course, a mismatch might be what Munguia’s image needs right now. Once the talk of the town after brutalizing Sadam Ali for the belt and dominating Liam Smith in his first defense, his technical limitations have become increasingly apparent, most notably in his questionable decision over the aforementioned Hogan in April.
Considering his size, the battle with the scale will probably be more competitive than the one with Allotey.

Very lazy boring ass fughts..lol@Mungia ducking that 34 yr old Hogan rematch. That's a damn shame..is Mungia Golden Boy?
munguia is a lot of things but boring isnt one of them...it will either be a one sided showcase or allotey somehow drags him into another hogan situation...allotey can punch...stubhub has a way of bring out the gladiator in nikkas
fury vs wallin is the drizzling shyts though
thank god for the devin haney card on friday before it

On one hand Munguia's opponent is worse cause at least a portion of boxing hardcores know Wallin's name while nobody remmbers Allotey, he was a cannon fodder every time he stepped up even a little bit. On the other hand though Fury's a lineal champion and 30yrs old with more xperience behind his back so it's more expected from him to fight good opponents than from a still green Munguia.

munguia's card at least might have a watchable supporting cast...i shudder at what arum has in store for fury vs wallin
That fight is very boring. It's another easy ass win. Waste of time.
