R2- Allotey continued attacking and connected some good punches in the middle of the ring. Good combustion and powerful shots from the Ghanaian. Munguia didn’t really step up. Verdict: 10-9 for the titlist.

Munguia went below the beltline. Bout stopped briefly. Allotey knocked out after violent combinations from the champion. So in this round, Allotey was floored twice.
R4- Munguia opened the round with an overhead shot and that unsettled Allotey, who stopped throwing his left jabs 58 secs left, Allotey knelt on his knees in the corner with Munguia approaching. The referee went to the boxer and his corner where they stopped the fight.
