Comments Thread For: Berlanga Scores First KO Since 2020 To Put Himself In Canelo Sweepstakes

[Tatabanya]

There have been many unheard of dudes who magically became ranked to pad someone's record.

Who better than someone whose first name is Padraig to pad Berlanga's record?

Once again Berlanga shows his lack of character , with elbows and low blows this time. Trash is as trash does.

Berlanga signed with Dazn to get Canelo fight only. It seemed to be a smart move than, because there was no talk about Canelo leaving Dazn for PBC.

Who has McCrory beaten? Steed Woodall? This guy was not a step up. And now? Calling out Canelo. Hearn realizes the "the chosen bum" will lose to any decent top 10 guy and is just hoping to make some money off Berlanga while he can. Mungia/Berlanga with the winner getting Canelo in September. Although most of us would prefer Benavediz getting the shot.

McCrory WAS a step up.

Bumbanga was fighting the C-Level. McCrory is (even now) the B minus level.

I knew as soon as he signed with Hearn that it would be a Eurobum tour.

As opposed to fighting American bums which is what he's mostly done?

I am not exactly sure what your basis is, other than the age of some of Berlanga's opponents but Rolls, Nicholson, and Quigley do not seem much different from McCrory. Who has he beaten that is remotely a name? Just asking.

I don’t see McCrory as a step up in competition for Berlanga either seems like par for the course as far as Berlangas level of competition to me

That is true. Where will he find the most competitive competition or the path of least resistance?

Definitely the US. Saunders was winning until he got caught by a one in a million eye shot to bring the fight to an end. Ryder gave him a tough fight even though he was a clearly past his best fringe level fighter. Callum was only given 3 weeks of training so that isn't a a fair reflection on him. The only bum was Fielding. But Canelo still had to drain him by contract.
