Eddie hearn says bumlanga vs canelo at msg is the biggest fight to make in boxing outside of fury vs AJ

I kid you not , I used to call him Fast Eddie but came to the realization I was mistaken
His new name is Slow Eddie because in all reality he ain’t fooling us besides his Hearnamaniacs

[STREET CLEANER]

Does that mean he is hitting that he is going to sign with Hearn?

[PeasantCrusha]

Don't be surprised if CANELO is the one planting these seeds. You know Canelo loves a challenge

While I really don't know what is actually going on behind the curtain, but to me, Berlanga sort of comes off as if he wants to check-out. I'm back and forth on his words and direction. Its like he is delusional, and he may be, or he has had a realization, and he knows the truth, and wants a check-out payday before the air is popped from the balloon.

Oh the suffering of the victim's of Khan Syndrome.

Guys c'mon. Berlanga has certified star power, he's got the *checks notes* prestigious WBO NABO belt.

Wow! A whole 5000 fans turned out to see him. Big time baby!

Delusional.

Berlanga is delusional. I'd like to see him fight Charlo at 168, but Jermall is a joke and needs to be stripped of his WBC 160 title.

Berlanga was dropped by Marcelo Esteban Coceres, who is an Argentine not a Mexican. He hasn't been dropped by any Mexican, although he's knocked out a few.
That can very well change in the future, but until it does happen we can't report that it has. Berlanga was on the verge of stopping Coceres by TKO, due to his punches swelling one of Coceres' eye shut. Berlanga, also stated in a recent video that he broke Coceres' orbital bone in three places of the same eye. These statement's in no way to imply that Berlanga will ever win a title within his boxing career, that still remains to be seen.

To put into context his near TKO of Coceres; feather fisted Billy Joe Saunders knocked Coceres out cold in their bout. Berlanga’s vaunted power wasn’t able to take out Steve Rolls who a smaller Golovkin starched. Never understood why Berlanga headlined a card when Zayas was head and shoulders above him. Now the kid is talking about getting in with Canelo… the kid needs to stop hanging out and partying with rappers and put in the work because his last couple fights have been abysmal.

this is the kind of ****iness not confidence you get when you have a bunch of YES men in your inner circle and camp. berlanga has not even done 1 ppv. he still on espn for crying out loud. if im not mistaking, he hasnt even fought a full 12 round fight, just 8 and 10 rounders.
