Okay, so I saw this question popping up everywhere: “How much did Munguia get paid to fight Canelo?” It got me curious, so I decided to dig in and see what I could find. It wasn’t as straightforward as I thought it would be!

First, I started with the usual spots – sports news sites, boxing blogs, all that jazz. I figured someone would have a concrete number, you know? But most places were just throwing around phrases like “career-high payday” and “a significant sum.” Nothing solid.
Then, I moved on to boxing forums. I thought, “Okay, if anyone knows, it’s gonna be the die-hard fans.” I scrolled through tons of threads, and there was a lot of speculation. Some people were guessing in the low millions, others were saying it could be way higher, even pushing eight figures. It was a mess!
I even tried to find official statements from either fighter’s camp or the promoters. No luck there either. Everyone was keeping their cards close to their chest. It’s all part of the negotiation game, I guess.
I still kept search on some boxing forum,Finally I found some useful information.
- It is said that Canelo guaranteed 35 Million, and if so, Munguia may get around 8 to 10 million, but no one can prove it.
So, after all that digging, what did I actually find? Well, nothing definitive. It’s frustrating, I know! But it seems like the exact figure is a closely guarded secret. We’ll probably have to wait for some kind of official financial report to come out, and even then, it might not tell the whole story.
The one thing I’m pretty sure of is that Munguia definitely made a good chunk of change. Fighting Canelo is a huge opportunity, and it comes with a big payday, even if we don’t know the exact number. For now, it looks like we’re stuck with educated guesses and rumors!
