Billy Joe Saunders and Edgar Berlanga Get Into It On Twitter
A possible grudge fight could be brewing in the form of a super-middleweight match up between Billy Joe Saunders and Edgar Berlanga.
A possible grudge fight could be brewing in the form of a super-middleweight match up between Billy Joe Saunders and Edgar Berlanga.
As fans know, Edgar Berlanga was recently signed up by Eddie Hearn, the big-punching Puerto Rican super middleweight stating how he went with Hearn “so I could get Canelo.”
Recent Matchroom Boxing signee super middleweight contender Edgar Berlanga won’t be ready for Canelo Alvarez or any of the other sharks at 168 like David Benavidez for another year and a half to two years, says his former coach Andre Rozier.
Edgar Berlanga says Eddie Hearn told him he’d line him up with a fight against Canelo Alvarez after his next two bouts as part of his three-fight deal with Matchroom Boxing.
Edgar Berlanga took to social media today after signing a multi-million, multi-fight deal with Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing promotion in a series of fights that could culminate with him getting a massive payday against Canelo Alvarez in 2023.
Eddie Hearn has won the lottery, signing unbeaten super middleweight phenom Edgar Berlanga (20-0, 26 KOs) to a multi-fight deal with Matchroom Boxing.
Teddy Atlas believes Edgar Berlanga was looking for an out when he chose to bite Alexis Angulo last Saturday night because things were not going the way he needed at Madison Square Garden in New York.
Super middleweight contender Edgar Berlanga (20-0, 16 KOs) is facing a suspension and a fine by as early as this Friday from the New York State Athletic Commission for his attempted bite in the seventh round of his contest against Alexis Angulo (27-3, 23 KOs) last weekend at Madison Square Garden in New York.
Maybe Edgar Berlanga is more frustrated than anyone over the way his KO streak has come to a shuddering halt. Last night at Madison Square Garden, the unbeaten super-middleweight was again forced to go the distance in a fight, this time when Alexis Angulo extended him the full ten rounds.
Super middleweight contender Edgar “The Chosen One” Berlanga didn’t get the knockout, but in front of the Puerto Rican faithful, he got the job done.
