In what will be his 25th world title fight, Mexican icon Canelo Alvarez defends his undisputed super middleweight championship this Cinco de Mayo weekend against compatriot Jaime Munguia at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on May 4. The 12-round bout, plus undercard action, will be broadcast by Prime Video and DAZN.
A four-weight world champion, Canelo (60-2-2, 39 KOs) has been a pound-for-pound entrant for over a decade. The 33-year-old boxer-puncher has the finest resume in elite-level boxing, having posted victories over Austin Trout, Erislandy Lara, Miguel Cotto, Gennadiy Golovkin, Daniel Jacobs and Sergey Kovalev.
Munguia (43-0, 34 KOs) cannot match his opponent for experience or accomplishments. However, at 27 he has youth on his side, punching power, durability and his ambition is visceral. Not a stranger to world-level action, Munguia once held the WBO super welterweight crown and made five defenses in 14 months.

09:26 p.m. ET: Immediately after landing a nice right hook lead in round one, Magdaleno clashes heads with Figueroa and suffers a nasty cut over his left eye.
09:16 p.m. ET: Next up is Brandon Figueroa versus Jessie Magdaleno. The former super bantamweight champs collide at featherweight with Figueroa defending the WBC interim title.
AND STILL THE WBA WELTERWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD… EIMANTAS STANIONIS!!!! LITHUANIAN STAR RETAINS HIS TITLE VIA 12-ROUND UNANIMOUS DECISION (119-109, 118-110, 117-111).
