Jaime Munguia said he will fight his former conqueror, Bruno Surace, in a rematch on April 12 in Tijuana, Mexico.
Former WBO junior middleweight champion Munguia (44-2, 35 KOs) hopes to avenge his humiliating sixth round defeat to Surace (26-0-2, 5 KOs) from last month on December 14 ahead to his hometown fans. Tijuana.
The attack of Cobra
Munguia, 28, was neglected in the sixth round and was dropped by a right hand from the Cobra-like Surance. The blow sent Munguia face down on the canvas.
Jaime was on his feet after he got up, and the referee, Juan Jose Ramirez, stopped him rather than allow him to be poleaxed a second time by the Frenchman.
Labonita_delboxeo reports the news of the Munguia vs Surace rematch on his Instagram channel.
It is questionable if it is a good idea for Munguia to get the rematch with Surace because this guy could have his number. Before the fight, Jaime knocked him down with a left hook to the head.
However, Surace stunned Munguia moments later with a cobra-like right hand to the head. Munguia took it well, but that shot was identical to the right hand that dropped him later in the fight in the sixth.
