Jaime Munguia vs. John Ryder results, highlights: Mexican star scores another TKO, calls out Canelo Alvarez
CBSN
Munguia appears ready for his close up on the biggest stage after another dominant victory on Saturday
If Saturday night was an audition for Jaime Munguia's hopes of landing a showdown against Mexican icon Canelo Alvarez in May, the unbeaten slugger made one heck of a statement.
Munguia (43-0, 34 KOs) scored four knockdowns en route to a dominant ninth-round stoppage of the durable John Ryder (32-7, 18 KOs) inside the Footprint Center in Phoenix. The 35-year-old Ryder, who took Alvarez the 12-round distance last May, announced before the Munguia fight he would retire if defeated.
"It would truly be a great fight among Mexicans," Munguia said, through a translator, about a possible fight with Alvarez. "If Canelo gives us a chance, it would be an honor to share the ring next to him."
