Edgar Berlanga says his opponent, Hamzah Sheeraz, was “fed by a silver spoon” by Turki Alalshikh who will go into their fight on July 12. He believes he had it much harder than he has. This Saturday Berlanga will fight against Sheeraz in the main event on Dazn ppv. The PPV price is $ 59.99 in the US and £ 24.99 in the UK.
Canelo Rematch: Berlanga’s most important goaL
Berlanga (23-1, 18 costs) mentions that he will take the silver spoon out of Hamzah’s mouth, hit him and then use the victory to get a Rematch with Canelo Alvarez next year.
“Carlos Adames really won that fight. They all know it. You could see his face. I watched the whole fight Turki (Alalshikh),” Edgar Berlanga said to box X About Hamzah Sheeraz’s last fight against WBC middleweight champion Carlos Adames.
The judges did no favors by giving him a draw against Adames, because the result was not recognized by fans as valid. They saw it as a mere favors. He made things worse for himself by not working immediately. If Hamzah had asked Turki to make the re -broadcast with Adames, he would probably have granted his request.
Sheeraz: gifted win, low popularity
“I watched the fight like 20 times. Turki got up from his seat, left, returned. (Sheeraz’s promoter) Frank Warren screams, ‘Ahhhh. “His coach knew he had lost.
The boxing world saw it as a robbery of Adames. This hurt the little popularity Hamzah in the UK. The American fans did not judge Shezaz as a good fighter. They saw him match his fight against Adames. So, when he was exposed in that battle, it was not a surprise.
That’s why it was a bad idea for Turki Alalshikh to use Hamzah as Berlanga’s opponent for this event. He should have converted things by fitting David Morrell against Berlanga and inserting Sheeraz with Imam Khataev. Berlanga and Sheeraz would be both massive underdogs, but if they conquered, their popularity would rise.
Sheeraz’s “Silver Spoon” privilege
‘There’s a difference. You are fed with a silver spoonRight? You have one of the richest families in Saudi to support you, “Berlanga said of Sheeraz.” But we’re going to take it because I have bigger things to do. I got bigger fish to fry. I want that rematch with Canelo. This is my main focus. I, I came from below, Bro. “
Sheeraz only fought on one of Turki Alalshikh’s cards in February when he struggled to get a controversial 12-draw against Carlos Adames for the WBC middleweight championship in Riyadh.
If Turki supported Hamzah, he hadn’t had it for him for so long. Berlanga did not pay close attention to what Turki said on social media. He is only interested in Sheeraz or the winner of the Chris Eubank Jr. Against Conor Benn Fight as the opponent of Canelo Alvarez next February.
Turki’s Canelo plans exclude Berlanga
Berlanga is not in Turki’s plans for a collision against Canelo. Turki has not yet said what battles he has for Edgar if he overcomes, but it will probably be someone dangerous. The last thing he needs is to fit Berlanga as the top rankings and Eddie Hearn did, to mostly feed him cream puffs and get no value in return because of the non-competitive matches.
Turki should insist that Berlanga fight against a super-middle weight at the elite level, or preferably a light heavyweight because he has to save himself in the eyes of the fans after his loss of Canelo.
“There’s no promoter wanted to sign me. Top ranks didn’t want to sign me. Golden Boy didn’t want to sign me. PBC didn’t want to sign me. No one wanted to sign me, ‘says Berlanga.
This explains why Top Rank chose to suit Berlanga against exclusive poor opposition to build him for his first 20 fights. If they did not want to sign him, they probably saw mistakes, hence the soft match of strict tomato can.
Berlanga left the company to sign with Matchroom before the top rank ever had the opportunity to move him against the fighters on contenders. Matchroom also did not develop Berlanga, and placed him against British fighters at domestic level Jason Quigley and Padraig McCrory before connecting him against Canelo Alvarez last year. It is not surprising that Berlanga was nowhere ready for the Canelo fight, given his preparation or lack thereof.
