The old Jaime Mungia was a lot more fun. I understand why he fought this way though. It was smart.
He had to get the W to keep the gravy train rolling so he boxed within himself not taking any risks. Kind of like Anthony Joshua boxed Ruiz in their second fight - get the win, do not get knocked out and keep making more money.
Now if Surace wants a rematch I bet he won't get it even though he deserves it far more for losing a competitive decision against a guy he previously ko'd.
Not sure if that is a real question or not, but I will bite. Because they are 1-1. That is even. Sure, KO wins are more highlight reel and are indicated in parenthesis next to your name, but they do only count as one win, now don't they?
Munguia is a good, not great, boxer. He can fit nicely into the 164 landscape. He can beat or lose to most any of the 2nd tier names which will make for some really interesting fights for him. He is a good litmus test against young guns needing to step up. Not quite the gate keeper yet, but also not really NOT a gate keeper.....
Um what is the 164 landscape? Is that some new weight class that only you know about?
