Canelo Alvarez says he’s wanting ahead to giving mouthy New Yorker Edgar Berlanga the “beating of his life” this Saturday night time, September 14th, on the T-Cell Enviornment in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The aggressive spirit has been awoken in WBA, WBC, and WBO tremendous middleweight champion Caneo (61-2-2, 39 KOs) with the lip that cocky braggart Berlanga (22-0, 17 KOs) has been given him through the promotion of their battle.
Now, Canelo desires to interrupt his face and provides him a lesson he received’t quickly neglect of their match, stay on DAZN PPV. The occasion begins at 8:00 p.m. ET/5:00 p.m. PT.
Canelo Desirous to Break Berlanga’s Face
“I like them like that. I like them to be assured and do plenty of speaking. I like breaking their face after they play like that. I’m eagerly awaiting that day. It’ll be the beatdown of his life,” mentioned Canelo Alvarez to Premier Boxing about his battle towards Edgar Berlanga.
Berlanga shouldn’t be ranked within the high 15 in any respect, interval, on condition that he’s by no means overwhelmed a real contender throughout his profession. The WBA gave him a #1 rating after beating a few British fighters, Jason Quigley and Padraig McCrory. Berlanga opted to not use his WBA obligatory that was given to him to problem WBA ‘common’ tremendous middleweight champion David Morrell.
Canelo-Berlanga: A Mismatch?
Most consider that Berlanga was afraid of dropping to Morrell. So, as a substitute, Berlanga waited till his promoter, Eddie Hearn, lined him up for a title shot towards Canelo that he was nowhere prepared for. On paper, it regarded like a complete catastrophe, particularly for the followers ordering the occasion for $89.99.
Sadly for followers, the Canelo-Berlanga occasion isn’t low-cost, promoting for $89.99 on PPV. Except individuals are desperate to see the Canelo vs. Berlanga battle, there’s not a lot on the undercard to encourage them until they’re enthusiastic about seeing the struggling former tremendous middleweight champion Caleb Plant getting back from an extended 18-month layoff following a loss to tackle Trevor McCumby for the WBA interim 168-lb title.
Lackluster undercard fights:
-
- Erislandy Lara vs. Danny Garcia: The 41-year-old Lara (30-3-3, 18 KOs) defends his title towards inactive Danny Garcia (37-3, 21 KOs), who hasn’t fought in two years since narrowly beating Jose Benavidez Jr. by a 12-round majority choice on July 30, 2022. Danny is 36 and hasn’t regarded just like the fighter he as soon as was since 2014. He’s been on the gradual aspect to the underside for the final ten years, and he appears to have misplaced his ambition. Making tens of millions may need one thing to do with Danny’s misplaced motivation. Both manner, Danny doesn’t price a world title shot, and it could have been nicer to see Lara battle a unification with IBF and WBO 160-lb champion Janibek Alimkhanuly or WBC champion Carlos Adames quite than this battle.
- Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero vs. Manuel Jaimes: The previous WBA 140-lb champion Rolly is coming off an embarrassing eighth spherical knockout loss to Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz on March thirtieth. Rolly makes use of the little-known Jaimes (16-1-1, 11 KOs) as a tune-up on this 10-round battle.
