More shocking stoppage: Bruno Surace KO6 Jaime Munguia or Zack Chelli TKO10 David Morrell

I'd say Munguia because he'd recently gone 12 rounds with Canelo and he'd always shown an above average chin.

So getting flattened by a feather fisted Frenchman was a major shock to me.

Morrell losing was shocking aswell but apart from his spirited effort vs Benavidez he hasn't been that impressive since.

 

This, also; Morrell was taking a lot of clean left hands throughout the fight, and also got hurt badly in the 9th. The Munguia KO came completely out of nowhere. Sure, Suarce was landing that right hand just like Chelli, but there was no indication that Munguia was one bit bothered by them.

 

Yep totally agreed and that's the deciding factor for me aswell.

Chelli was coming on in the later rounds and had badly hurt Morrell already.

So you could see Chelli had a chance of pulling off the upset. And it was a nail-biting finish to see if Morrell could get over the line.

The Munguia KO as you rightly said come out of nowhere. And I don't think anyone could ever envision Munguia getting 1 shotted by a fighter with only 5 stoppages.

 

Morrell was looking shaky in his last fight already. Munguia came out of nowhere.

 

Morrell has just been on the downside at 175. Still a shocking result, but Morell was only really good at 168. It's a Jarrett Hurd type of situation.
