    True, I still think Munguia has the handspeed advantage. You are right though, neither are speed demons. If Munguia faces Charlo, he will look like he is boxing under water.

    What? Is my Joe Martinez looks like Anton LaVey line, just too damn esoteric for you all? Because I think it's a winner.:nusenuse:

    Usually after being hit. Whereupon he would proceed to hit himself in the head a few times before grinning from ear to ear.

    I see Munguia's career trajectory maybe being something like Chavez Jr's. He'll batter some smaller less talented guys and get found out by Andrade or someone who can pick him apart.

    Something about how he never smiled when whoopin' ass. Which is not true as recently as his last fight - grinned at Thurman after taking a punch before knocking him on his backside.

    Just another in a long list of Mannix trying desperately to convince anyone who will listen that he is smart.

    Round 1 Johnson 10-9

    Johnson rushes him, lands a volley of overhand rights and hooks to the body, dominates first half, pace slows, Munguia landed a few hooks, but Johnson picked it up and closed well.

    Johnson RD1.

    I see Munguia still has no defense.

    Someone said that a fighter wasn't passionate enough. That passion wins rounds. Then someone said that Pac wasn't passionate.

    Round 1 Johnson 10-9
    Round 2 Munguia 10-9

    Johnson still pouring on the pressure, but it's less effective, Munguia countered him a lot with vicious uppercuts.

    Munguia hurt Johnson with an uppercut, swung round for me.

    Johnson has a lot of head/body movement for someone his build.
