Munguia didn’t have much of a chance against Canelo. He lost on all three scorecards - 117-110, 116-111, 115-112. After the fight, Canelo told reporters that he “carried” Munguia. The narrative circulated for weeks. Munguia was very careful with polite, diplomatic answers to inevitable questions.

On the calendar, at least, it’s a chance to move beyond a dreary year, one that figures to be remembered mostly for the Mike Tyson-Jake Paul fiasco.
Maybe, the Oleksandr Usyk-Tyson Fury rematch on Dec. 21 changes all of that. We can hope.
Last week, I had a theory that most in the crowd of 72,000 at AT&T Stadium and a Netflix audience - estimated at 75 million viewers, worldwide - would not know that Usyk ...
