    Munguia is at least 3 weight classes bigger than Cook right now and still has to go low.

    Munguia looks like he's trying to work on his skills more. So Cook might have his moments in the fight. If Munguin just goes in it looks like he can stop him at any time, but Cook doesn't really pose any threat so he can get in rounds and toy with him.

    My heart goes out to Cook, I hope he lands a hail mary.

    Munguia still gets hit too much. It wouldn't be that much of a shocker if he were to get upset in one of these kind of showcase/building fights.

    Munguia is slow to me. He isn't beating Cook to the punches. He is winning by walling away when Cook turtles up.

    Munguia looking like Foreman. He's manhandling this guy. Looks like Frazier in there. But let's see if Cook can land something big.

    Munguia will be featured on a KO highlight reel at some point in his career.

    He's so easy to hit.

    This is a total size and skill mismatch and the fight should not be happening.
