Earlier today, Edgar Berlanga posted that he will be “back” after he suffered a loss of Hamzah Sheeraz last Saturday night in Queens, New York.
The way in which the trash talk Berlanga (23-2, 18 COs) has been blown out will take a lot of magic from his manager, Keith Connolly, to try to rebuild him to where he will earn the same money as he earned.
Berlanga has reportedly reported a $ 10 million wallet For the Sheeraz (22-0-1, 18 COs), along with the $ 10 million he got for his failed title against Canelo Alvarez in 2024. It’s not bad for a fighter whose best career victory is roadmore.
Rebuilding Berlanga: Tomato Can Circuit Return
It is doubtful that Berlanga will fight any solid super -middle weights during his rebuild. The chances of beating fighters like Osley Iglesias, Diego Pacheco and Christian Mbilli are remote.
What we are likely to see is that Edgar returns to the tomato circle he used to build his record. Press from there to a rematch against Canelo so he can get “that big bag”. It is clear that it was deceived at this point, but Berlanga will try.
“The journey is far from over. We will be back soon,” said Edgar Berlanga on social media.
Turki Alalshikh: Second chances for fighters
If Turki Alalshikh wants to keep using Berlanga for his events, he can still make good money to fight on his cards. In the past, Turki has shown a willingness to give second chances to fighters who have been beaten. So, he can do it with Berlanga.
He may not get the same money as he enjoyed for the Sheeraz and Canelo fights. But he will probably make even more money than fighters with excellent talent than he earns at 168. It shows that talent no longer means much. It’s about who loves you.
‘Berlanga has been waiting too long. He must have had the pressure on him from the beginning. You can’t play with a puncher. He was also a puncher, “the coach ‘Bozy’ Ennis tells IceM Sports Media About what Edgar Berlanga did wrong against Hamzah Sheeraz.
Berlanga looked scared from the first round and did not want to attack Sheeraz for fear of being cut. His hesitation led to its worst fears true.
“Sheeraz did what he was supposed to do. I said my husband said it could happen, and it happened,” Bozy said. “When they were close, Edgar sometimes waited to throw the shots. When Sheeraz came in, he let his hands go. He was right in front of them, just there, and he was close. ‘
Berlanga’s skills exposed: the sheeraz fight
It looked like Berlanga was waiting until he felt safe enough to throw, because he saw how fast Sheeraz’s speed was. He selected in terms of technical skills. Sheeraz had a much better skill set and dominated the unskilled Berlanga.
“That’s where Berlanga should have had the advantage, but he didn’t let his hands go. Berlanga should have kept the pressure on him. He didn’t push him as he should have been, ‘says Bozy.
The years of the fight against tomato can not prepare Berlanga for this moment, and he seemed to know what to do against Sheeraz. He showed no improvement of his loss of Canelo Alvarez.
“What he should have done was to concentrate on Shezaz all the time,” Bozy said of Berlanga who should be focused on Hamzah instead of fighting with De La Hoya and talking so much trash.
