Canelo explains his rationale for choosing Munguia

World super middleweight champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez explained to ESPN KnockOut why he chose former 154-pound title holder Jaime Munguia as his next opponent: “Edgar Berlanga was not attractive [as an opponent], neither was Jermall Charlo because of what happened with his brother [Canelo was presumably referring to his own easy win over Charlo's twin, Jermell] and in the end the best option was Jaime Munguía. [WBC interim title holder David] Benavidez is out, the only thing he offers is [that he weighs] 25 pounds more than me. Now, I am a businessman, if they come and offer me 200 million dollars, tomorrow I will fight with him."
