Edgar Berlanga posted the following six fights he needed after his March eighth battle, rumored to be towards journeyman Gabriel Rosado (26-17-1, 15 KOs) in Puerto Rico. Rosado hasn’t received a battle in 4 years since 2021.
Six Fights, Zero Likelihood?
He would seemingly lose to the entire six fights that Berlanga needs. That may make it troublesome for him to battle the remaining 5 and not using a huge backlash from the fighters who select to battle him.
Edgar included Jermall Charlo and the just lately knocked-out Jaime Munguia on the checklist. Even these guys would seemingly be far too gifted towards the a lot greater Berlanga.
Curiously, Berlanga (22-1, 17 KOs) included a rematch with Canelo Alvarez as one of many six fights he needs, which appears extremely unlikely with out him beating somebody high-level at gentle heavyweight or cruiserweight.
Canelo won’t ever battle Berlanga with out doing one thing past his capabilities, like beating David Benavidez, David Morrell, Artur Beterbiev, or Dmitry Bivol.
Berlanga reportedly rehydrated to 193 lbs for his 12-round unanimous choice loss to Canelo on September 14th final yr. The Brooklyn, New York, Berlanga appeared huge within the ring with Canelo that night time. Surprisingly, he was in a position to make the 168-lb.
Being that massive, he ought to battle at gentle heavyweight. Berlanga’s choice to remain at 168 is comprehensible, however he’s not gifted sufficient to beat even fringe contenders at 175.
The Want Record
“After my March eighth battle, these are the following six fights that I need in no explicit order.
LINE’EM UP FOR ME 🇵🇷🇵🇷👑👑,” mentioned Edgar Berlanga on X.Jamie Munguia
Jermall Charlo
Caleb Plant
Hamzah Sheeraz
Canelo Alvarez – rematch
Diego Pacheco
Fighters like Caleb Plant and Hamzah Sheeraz would seemingly soar on the likelihood to battle Berlanga. The previous IBF tremendous middleweight champion has already tried to get a battle towards him, however with no luck. If Plant did try and battle him, he would possibly ignore him and proceed to play it secure, ready and hoping Canelo would bless him with a rematch.
Berlanga hasn’t overwhelmed anybody but to show he’s a B-level fighter. He’s not A-level with how he appeared towards Canelo and in a few of his different fights.
Berlanga’s finest wins:
– Steve Rolls
– Roamer Alexis Angulo
– Marcelo Coceres
– Demond Nicholson
– Jason Quigley
– Padraig McCrory
