A source has advised The Ring that former world champion Jaime Munguia will get his shot at redemption.
Munguia (44-2, 35 KOs) will enter the ring with Bruno Surace for a second time - with their fight taking place on May 3, as the co-featured Riyadh Season attraction to the undisputed super middleweight showdown between Saul "Canelo' Alvarez and William Scull.
Last December in Tijuana, in what became The Ring's Upset of The Year - Surace, with only four knockouts on his record, shocked the boxing world when he scored a one-punch stoppage of the very durable Munguia in the sixth round.
Prior to the fight, the unbeaten Surace (26-0-2, 5 KOs) was viewed as an easy opponent and Munguia appeared to be on his way to victory when he scored a knockdown in the second round.
In a shocker, Surace landed a counter that dropped Munguia on his back. The Mexican slugger was seriously hurt and was unable to beat the referee's count.
Since suffering his defeat, Munguia enlisted the services of veteran trainer Eddy Reynoso, who also works as the head trainer of Canelo. In May of last year, Canelo scored a twelve round unanimous decision over Munguia.
