Great fighting hopes

In the interview after Edgar’s fight tonight in the Caribbean Royale, he presented his great plans, saying that he wants Jaime Munguia, Jermall Charlo and a rematch with Canelo Alvarez. The first two options are possible, but not the thirds against Canelo.

You can relate to Berlanga wanting to obtain a rematch with Canelo because he obtained a giant payment of $ 10 million, which changed his life. None of the other fights for him will pay similar money, and his chances of defeating the main contestants in 168 or 175 are scarce. Berlanga is like Cinderella, who was invited to the ball. Instead of seeing the reality of what it was, Edgar believes that it can happen again. He can’t and won’t.

While he looked great tonight, but that was because he was fighting a 35 -year -old fighter who recently returned from a 10 -year dismissal. Even when González-Ortiz was active 12 years ago, he was a marginal fighter. Look at his fight against Serhiy Dzinziruk of 2012. It seemed terrible, and it was when he was active. Berlanga looked good tonight because he faced a poor opponent, who did not belong to the same ring with him or with anyone classified among the top 15.

Álvarez will not give Berlanga a rematch in this life because his fight was a bleached almost last September. It was a complete mismatch with Edgar just struggling to survive.

Canelo is close to retirement, and will not waste time passing by Old Ground, fighting Berlanga again just because he wants “The bag.“Álvarez will fight against the boys that Turki Alalshikh wants me to do so he can earn a lot of money.

Berlanga says he will not move to 175 despite his colossal size and wants to fight Jaime Munguia or Jermall Charlo. When asked if I wanted “F *** Plant”. Then he said his goals were Munguia or Jermall.

Jermall state

Charlo, 34, has fought only once in the last four years since 2021, against former weight contender Welter José Benavidez Jr. in 2023. A fight between Berlanga and Jermall may not be sold in PPV.

It would not be the type of contest that a promoter would like to get his neck and pay the type of money that Berlanga would probably expect to obtain. It could be disappointed if you think it is a fight of $ 10 million or even $ 5 million. Charlo is the forgotten man. Its popularity from 2018 to 2021 has gone due to four years of inactivity.

‘F* plant’

“Yes, they love me from Canelo’s fight,” said Edgar Berlanga TV ifl Tonight, when asked if it will be easy for him to sign with PBC to obtain the fight of Jermall Charlo or Caleb plants now that he is a free agent. “All PBC staff love me. I sold the shit of that fight (Canelo Álvarez), and brought that charisma.

“I brought a great fight for fans, and now I am a veteran. I am there with the best. I have to leave and act now. F *** Caleb plant. We want (Jaime) Munguia. We want Jermall Charlo, ”Berlanga said when asked if he has a message to the Caleb plant. “Plant, you are ab ****.

“I took it out early and now I am in the next one,” Berlanga said about his victory over Jonathan González-Ortiz tonight.
