Comments Thread For: Berlanga On Top Rank Split: They Tried To Slow Me Down; I Want Growth, Legacy, Money

[chepboxingking]

Outrageous thing to say, most of the notable PBC fighters are on the shelf for a year or more before they get any fight let alone a meaningful one, it's laughable to imply he lacks intent signing with a different outfit.

Morrell, Andrade, Dirrell, plant, Benavides, uzcategui, Jarmall. What other promotion had a better pool of fighters than this? If he signs with Hearn or GBP, who can they offer? John Ryder? Hearn couldn’t get Andrade any significant fight, what makes you think it’ll be different with Berlanga?

Wanted someone way above Jesse Hart’s level?

The 6’3” Jesse Hart who went 34 rounds with Gilberto Ramirez and Joe Smith Jr?

That would have been a damn good fight. In fact, Hart would have probably won that fight and he knows it.

Watch him fight someone much worse next.

He mentions DLH, Mayweather, Canelo but all 3 of those guys had their fair share of Jesse Harts in their resume before getting the big fights.

Sounds like him and his team don’t want to have their first L vs Jesse Hart.

The dude is delusional, a flash in the pan. His career will soon be over. He's not a good fighter, they know who is the real star from PR and it sure isn't him. TR doesn't got to bother with this loser anymore making them the true winners here.

He's got huge deficiencies in basic areas, and hasn't improved since he stepped up in competition. That's why TR wanted to take it slow. We'll see if PBC even gives him an offer, although Hearn doesn't have anyone for him to fight. The main event luster wore off long ago...

This is misguided, Top Rank did a good job with him.

I thought Top Rank was doing a good job with him also, but obviously something was wrong between them.

In other words top rank decided he should play second fiddle to Zayas, fight some more mediocre opposition on an jndercard, because he’s ****** ass ever since his ko streak ended. Not to mention even the NYC crowd quickly lost interest in him after his last couple of performances. He didn’t like that because he thinks he’s a bigger star and better boxer than what the reality is. Oscar will sign him and allow munguia to get a fight against a name that will create a buzz but in reality is just another way to prolong munguias career before he also takes an inevitable L.

PBC is loaded with 168 pound talent, are you listening Berlanga? That's where the getting is good, or don't you care?

[GBP4LIFE]

The clear choice is GBP.. he would be a major priority with an in house big fight. Get lost in the shuffle at PBC.. and he would have to promote himself at PBC.. Oscar working on his behalf make him a bigger star.

Glad to see someone barking about getting freezed out regardless of any reason. Others don't mind long vacations. But I predict more will come out and start trying to opt out of their inactive predicament. They can't stay that way forever.

Zayas has looked better than Berlanga lately, and not for nothing he had to of his last 4 opponent's on the verge of a KO, or TKO.
Coceres' eye was virtually shut so if it had been slated for 12 round's he'd have been TKO'd, Nicholson was out on his feet, if it had been a 10 rounder he'd have knocked him out.
I don't know what of trip Beralga's on, because he hasn't arrived yet, he should've had a fight already lined up, once his suspension was over.
Berlanga's got to get in the ring asap, he's developing more detractor's the longer his stay's out of the ring. His inactivity is ruining his career.
