    Round 1 Munguia 10-9
    Round 2 Munguia 10-9
    Round 3 Munguia wins by KO

    Cook comes out aggressive, backing Jaime to the ropes landing to the body, Jaime backs him right up to teh ropes wailing away, lands hook Cook goes down, he's back up, Munguia right back on him, Munguia teeing off ripping him with hooks to the head and body, Cook reeling from one side to the other, Weeks steps in and waves it off.

    Well, does that mean we have 2.5 hrs of "preparation" for GGG vs Canelo?

    Oscar’s going to get the kitchen utensils and the fishnets out and provide the pre-fight entertainment.

    I'll deny it. He's big, strong, and throws a lot. That's not the same as being a high level offensive boxer. The skill isn't there.

    This undercard satisfies the "just bleed." fan but it's very poor for how big of an event this is. Nothing but showcase fights leading up to the main event.

    mungia has very good speed to go with his power. he looks more composed and patient, at least till he feels he hurt you. i see improvement from his last couple outs, who trains him?

    Munguia got nothing out of this fight. I didn't see anything new in him. No nice jab to setup a hard right , footwork, body work, nothing. This was close to a bum rush and beat the crap out of a smaller less skilled guy.

    Munguia is a weight bully. He need to move up to 160.

    Another mismatch,Cook is a gutsy little fighter but his movement is terrible and for a world title and main undercard to the biggest fight of the year was a bit of disgrace imo.
