PBC Willing to Pay Canelo for Munguia Bout

According to ESPN Mexico, Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) is ready to offer the Mexican super middleweight (up to 76.2 kg) undisputed champion a guaranteed purse for a bout against 27-year-old Mexican Jaime Munguia (43-0, 34 KOs). The guarantee is reportedly around $35 million, the sum PBC is prepared to pay to secure a match between Canelo and Munguia over a potential fight with Jermell Charlo, who is currently considered Alvarez's most likely opponent. PBC is confident that a fight against Jaime would be more marketable than one against Jermell. Saul Alvarez has indicated plans to make his ring return on May 4th in Las Vegas.
