Munguia by UD

 

Plant by UD.

 

Munguia.

 

Plant will have success because he's an excellent boxer with a very good jab, but his lack of power will be what does him in. I think Munguia forces a late stoppage somewhere around the 10th or 11th round. He's too relentless and Plant literally doesn't have enough firepower to keep Munguia off of him.

 

Plant's engine would be his downfall; Munguia stoppage down the stretch.

 

Plant doesn't respond well to that type of relentless pressure, he's a very good boxer but the lack of power is what sways me to Munguia favor. If Plant can punch as well as he can box I'd favor Plant, buttttttt...

 

I did not see the Ryder fight. Munguia is reminiscent of Navarrette, all offense and blocks punches with their face. I think Munguia has been able to severely overcome his deficiencies with good match making though I think his last two wins were impressive. I think given Munguia's flaws I feel he is the type of fighter who I am going to pick against in a lot of important fights

I think Ryder was made to order for Munguia but would be a hard task to overcome because he is a tough fighter but not one with much depth from a style standpoint. Plant I think has the speed, movement, boxing ability to make Munguia look clueless and get tagged. I don't think he has the stuff to lay Munguia out. I think this will be an interesting and competitive fight but Munguia seems to improve a little more each time and with new trainers.

If Plant wins its close and the window might be closing as Munguia heads toward his prime and grows as a boxer and Plant just gets older

 

Plant by spilt decision. Munguia can punch but not with Tyson like power and Plant can take a punch.

 

Mungia SD or UD. Plants offense is very lacking.

 

Good fight.

Leaning towards the boxer here, I don't think Munguia is at the level of Benavidez. Plant by SD.
