Makabu 67-66

Mchunu landed a few good shots but his activity level dropped quite a bit this round.

 

This is why Canelo wanted this guy, predictable, and getting out boxed. Mchunu needs a slightly higher out put, and don't pose on the ropes.

 

Makabu round

5-3 Mchunu

 

He wanted him because he had a title and Canelo felt he had the tools to overcome the huge physical disadvantages.

 

makabu is going to dream with mchunu's right hook tonight....
