Professional career
Munguía vs. Ali
Munguía turned professional in 2013 and compiled a record of 28-0 before challenging and beating American Sadam Ali for the WBO junior middleweight title.[1]
Munguía vs. Smith
In his first defense, Munguía scored a unanimous decision victory over former light middleweight champion Liam Smith.[2]
Munguía vs. Cook, Inoue, Hogan
He then made light work of Brandon Cook on the undercard of Canelo vs Golovkin II for another successful defence of his world title. On April 13, 2019 Munguia returned to defend his title against an underrated Hogan. Munguia won by decision but it is believed by many that Hogan was robbed of a victory.
