Given the kind of advice that Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. offered to Munguia, it is worth mentioning the type of advantage Munguia will have over John Ryder.

Since Jaime Munguia, 6′ 0″ is taller than 5′ 9″ Ryder, the Mexican boxer can afford to stay outside the pocket and counter with his cross the way Chavez Sr. advised him. At the same time, since Ryder will have a height disadvantage, he will try and cut the distance. Here, Munguia can let Ryder throw and miss with thoughtful head movements. Additionally, given Munguia’s previous performances in the ring, we understand that he possesses commendable stamina and can generate power when needed.
