Jaime Munguia vs Bruno Surace Prediction: a fight between men of same heights

The upcoming bout between Jaime Munguia and Bruno Surace is the main fight in the event titled El Gran Regreso A Casa. While Munguia is coming from a knockout win against Erik Bazinyan three months ago, Surace has not fought since 2023. Munguia boasts an excellent and competent performance with 44 wins and 1 loss, while Surace comes to this upcoming bout with no loss, 2 draws, and 25 wins. Fans can catch up live with the event via ESPN.

Munguia has fought 45 times in his career, winning 44. Out of 44 wins, 35 were knockout victories, while 9 were decisions. Munguia made his professional debut in July 2013, with a knockout win against Manuel Mora. He fought 4 times in his first year of professional boxing, winning all against Manuel Mora, Luis Contreras, Benjamin Urias, and Abraham Marquez. Year in, year out, Munguia has been fighting and winning. In 2024, Munguia has fought three times, winning twice against Erik Banzinyan and John Ryder, while he has his first career defeat against Saul Alvarez in May through a knockout. Munguia has been so impressive as he has won against world champions like Patrick Allotey, Gary O’Sullivan, Dennis Hogan, among others.

The French fighter began his professional career in October 2016 with a draw against Mathis Lourenco. 3 more wins against Kamel Jemli, Predrag Cvetkovic, and Sladjan Dragisic before he had another draw against Jimmy Wailly in April 2017. Since that draw, Surace has been winning till now, with impressive and unexpected victories against Charden Ansoula, Diego Natchoo, Medhi Madani, among others. Out of 25 wins, Surace has only 4 knockout victories while he has been winning the rest of his bouts by struggle, by stagger. Since he has been fighting, most of his opponents do not surpass 20 wins, implying that Munguia will be a big threat for him.

This is a very straightforward game in prediction, as the two fighters are more or less not worth comparing. Although some experts may believe that Bruno Surace is more youthful than Munguia, being 2 years younger, I think the 28-year-old Munguia is still not an old man. Both fighters have the same height, but that does not mean this will end in a draw. Looking at the record, Munguia is more experienced, beginning his professional career 3 years before Surace. More so, Munguia has 44 wins, way more than the entirety of Surace’s total fights so far! I believe this is a soft landing for Jaime Munguia, as I see him win this bout, ending in a knockout.
