Alvarez and Munguia unusually polite to each other leading up to all
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Given the significance of two Mexican fighters facing each other on Cinco de Mayo weekend, Canelo Alvarez and Jaime Munguia have been especially respectful of each other heading into Saturday night’s bout.
Much more so than what typically would be expected of a title fight when those going against each other often create fake controversies to gin up pay-per-view sales.
Alvarez saved most of his venom for his former promoter, Oscar De La Hoya, who now works on the other side with Munguia. De La Hoya gave just as well as he received, and at times it felt during Wednesday’s news conference as if he was the opposing boxer rather than Munguia.
A point Alvarez, the consensus super middleweight champion, was sure to make.
“He tried to get the attention for him not for Munguia,” Alvarez said before unleashing a string of expletives at De La Hoya.
