Jaime Munguia goes after Edgar Berlanga or Caleb Plant
After his victory over Bazinyan, Munguia talked about the opponents he would like to face in 2025 to continue his path to a world championship.
He emphasized that he wants to stay at 168 pounds, a division that Saul Alvarez has dominated for several years and will have to face opponents who have already succumbed to the Guadalajara native, such as Caleb Plant and Edgar Berlanga, in addition to Christian Mbilli, a Frenchman undefeated in 28 fights.
“Let’s see what the best is coming, there are great fights at 168, there’s Plant, there’s Berlanga, there’s Mbilli. I would like to fight next year with Berlanga or Caleb Plant,” he said.
