Berlanga: Knockout or Walmart – Boxing News 24

Edgar Berlanga (22-1, 17 kos) says that if he does not go out Jonathan Gonzalez-Ortiz (20-0-1, 16 kos) in his ten-round fight next month on March 15, he will do so Remove -vous and work in Walmart. The event will be displayed live on Dazn. Berlanga fights against Gonzalez-Ortiz, 35, in a reconstruction in the Austin ‘ammo’ underground Williams vs. Patrice Volny in the Caribbean Royale of Orlando, Florida.

Walmart or Win?

In order for Berlanga to be joking about retirement, he must cross his mind after his bad performance in his loss in Canelo Alvarez last September. It may be realized now that there will be no resuscitation because it should work towards the place by surpassing the best contenders. If Berlanga was not so rich, you would think that he would end up quitting and working in Walmart. Canelo Alvarez blessed him with a day of payment, which he did not deserve.

Did not do the last time. Even if Berlanga cut off the best contenders, surpassing Diego Pacheco, Christian Mbilli and Osleys Iglesias, Canelo will not fight again. He got a deck and a large payment of $ 10 million, and there will be no other.

Canelo gave Berlanga a free title shot and did not mind that his resume was made a sub-level opposition from top to bottom. He won the title struggle based on his popularity in Brooklyn and Puerto Rico.

Payday’s reality

Edgar fights the barrier in this struggle. If from now it will be so, you cannot blame it if it is removed. Will not get the same money as the holder collected. This is the first time that Berlanga has not been a headline in four years since 2021.

He had been a main fighter in his last five fights, and it will be a disappointment for him to be out of first place. You can understand, though. Berlanga does not value being the headline if he fights against Jonathan Gonzalez-Ortiz. If he fought someone well, like Diego Pacheco, Hearn would help him leave, but it would be a bad fight for him because he would probably lose.

Berlanga’s career is on thin ice, no matter how much it looks against this boy. He is unable to overcome the highest fighters in the 168 -pound division. At best, you can get another day of payment if your promoter, Eddie Hearn, can establish it in a fight against Jaime Munguia.

If Berlanga does not have enough talent to hang with the highest fighters in 168 or 175, his career will end soon. After trying the money from Canelo Alvarez, he will not want to stay and collect smaller days against the unnamed opposition as if he had been fighting.

If I did not remove it I will let go of boxing and work in Walmart
