Fans want plant, Berlanga wants … money?

Edgar Berlanga says he is ready to fight one of his three strokes after destroying the little known Jonathan Gonzalez-Ortiz in a round last Saturday night in Orlando, Florida.

The successful list

– Jaime Munguia
– Jermall Charlo
– Caleb plant

Above all?

Fans want Berlanga to fight against the Caleb plant, but it is likely that Edgar occurs over, believing that he values ​​the same type of money he fought against Canelo Alvarez. It is not a huge struggle that will provide many PPV purchases because the plant is not popular enough. If Berlanga takes the price demanding $ 10 million, he must work on the list towards one of the minor fighters.

Berlanga (23-1, 18 kos) made it clear that it will be the opposite side of the one to choose because it has “the island of Puerto Rico” behind. His choice number 1 is Jaime Munguia, who reaches a brutal loss of fifth round in Bruno Surace last December and has lost two of his last three fights. This is not ideal.

Cruiserweight Berlanga?

It is questionable if Edgar can even do 168, as it seemed like a cruise weight last Saturday night. Last Friday he lost his weight, with a weight of 169 1/2 pounds, and there are many doubts if he can even return to 168 without putting in the hospital.

Berlanga should fight a heavy weight, at least, at this stage of his career, if not a cruise. He is about to turn 28 and has obviously been eating well with the $ 12 million he got from his three -struggling contract with Matchroom.

Berlanga’s success list does not necessarily represent who are the best super -weight contestants because the division has changed with the new blood. The boys on their wish list are old or fighters with tremble curricula.

Jermall celebrates 35 years in May and has only struggled once since 2021. It is not even relevant in the division of 168 pounds.

“We have plant, we have (jermall) Charlo and we have Munguia. We got them three,” said Edgar Berlanga a Fighthype When asked who wants to fight after detaining Jonathan Gonzalez-Banks on the first round last Saturday night in his comeback struggle in Orlando.

“We have to see which one bites his hand. Who bites his hand will get the bullet,” Berlanga said, making it clear that he represents the side A against the three he is considering.

This is my man. If you come with something in the next struggle, we do it, “Berlanga said about promoter Eddie Hearn.” Right now I’m a great name in sport. I have an island behind me. I have Puerto Rico with me. I had the whole world with me.

“This is not the promoter. It’s about getting the right fights, having the right team and I got it. I think I have the best boxing team right now, the strongest team. People were saying bad comments that I was at the Co-Main event, “said Berlanga.
