Is Jaime Munguia a champion?
Jaime Munguia is a former WBO junior middleweight champion, which he won after earning a fourth-round TKO win over Sadam Ali in 2018. He capped off an impressive performance by dropping Ali with a left hook, which resulted in the referee calling a stop to the bout.
At the time, the Tijuana native boasted a 28-0 record and came into the fight with an impressive streak of five consecutive wins via KO/TKO. He was a successful champion as he went on to make five title defenses over the likes of Liam Smith, Takeshi Inoue, and Dennis Hogan.
Munguia then added more championships to his collection as he defeated Tureano Johnson to win the vacant WBO Inter-Continental middleweight championship. It was another successful title reign as he made three successful title defenses over Kamil Szeremeta, Gabriel Rosado, and D'Mitrius Ballard.
The 27-year-old most recently achieved success at super middleweight as he earned a unanimous decision win over Sergiy Derevyanchenko to win the vacant WBC Silver super middleweight championship. He earned his first successful title defense after earning a ninth-round TKO win over John Ryder this past January.
The Tijuana native has an incredible opportunity coming up as a win over Canelo Alvarez on May 4 could be significant for his legacy in the sport.
