Bernalga doesn't deserve even to be broadcasted...He's at a lower level than Ali Walsh...

Did Hearn really just say what other options does Canelo have ? He named 2 mandatories but yet forgot to mention Benavidez. ♂️

[Smash]

farce

didnt canelo try to force drunk charlo after he got his bro but that was thankfully veteod and he moved on

i havnt seen anyone in a long long time avoid someone like this guy is doing, hes terrified of him & hes facilitated by the clowns at the wbc

This fight honestly is a waste of time, this could be a stay busy fight. Canelo can KO this dude in 3 rounds or less.

You can’t criticize Canelo for the Golovkin fight. He was a little bit past the hill but he was still a solid fighter and people were wondering if Canelo could be the first to stop or drop him. GGG’s got a diamond chin, though.

I’m not even going to criticize the Ryder fight either. Ryder pulled a rabbit out of a hat by rallying while down on the scorecards to edge Daniel Jacobs in a close fight.

The Charlo pick was probably the weakest of his latest opponents. Though Charlo was undisputed at 154 and he had avenged his sole loss by KO, I could see maaaaaaaaaaaybe Charlo from two weight classes away doing something spectacular. I didn’t think he would, but we’ve seen stranger things before (Pacquiao/De La Hoya for example, Duran/Leonard 1). Charlo essentially **** the bed on his attempt. Piss poor effort.

Jaime Munguia I don’t think (like anyone on this list) was anywhere near to be the favorite against Canelo, but you could justify him earning a shot with his performances over Derevyenchenko and his TKO over Ryder.

The Berlanga fight is just…ugh. The main reasons why Eddie would make it is because of the ethnic rivalry, Berlanga’s ‘0’, and the high probability that Canelo looks spectacular to set up a bigger fight. Cause Berlanga is essentially a KO waiting to happen when he makes his ring walk.

I’m just salty because:

1-) Mexico essentially gets a “bye” and scores a victory over PR

2-) Berlanga’s personality seems douchey.

3-) I can’t defend Canelo.

From a financial standpoint, sure. But…Berlanga, bro……..what in the flying ****…?

The only pleasure I’m going to get from this fight happening is watching my brother in law (a major Berlanga fight) watch his hero get demolished, cause that’s it. Berlanga’s chances of winning that fight are like Marquez against Mayweather. He can’t KO Canelo and once he realizes this he will have NOTHING to offer and it’s going to snowball catastrophically.

i think u can actually

canelo dropped his belt and wouldnt face ggg, waited and waited & only faced him when ggg had a very close fight with jacobs then up pops canelo demanding a fight, jacobs fought the ggg going well KO'ing people actually, not canelo

then, he got a gift draw in that fight & one of the worst cards in the history of the sport with addy bird scoring the fight 118 - 110 for canelo

then if thats not bad enough, he gets busted for peds in the run up to the rematch & lo and behold does a lot better in that fight as well, thats canelo for u though, A side stuff with a ginger twist

[PNUT901]

Berlanga’s whole argument is how famous he thinks he is, how he’s Puerto Rican and supposedly has a large backing. He hasn’t even proven this by caring a PPV by himself, with a decent B side like Plant, Munguia, Daniel Jacobs. Hell even Anthony Dirrell would be a huge step up for him right now.

He’s not even arguing about how he’s the best fighter Canelo can fight because he’s the toughest and he’s going to be the one to beat Canelo. He’s not even arguing that. He’s just arguing how famous he thinks he is.

This is one of the worst fighters Canelo can choose to fight at this point of their careers.

Good catch ! He's talked about everything except winning the fight. He knows that he is a lamb being led to the slaughter. It will be enough money to retire on as long as he stays away from the ***elry stores.


Administration , y'all need to stop with the bullshlt censorship A.I. , J e w e l r y is offensive ? GTFOH . Change the system that you are using , this one sucks monkey peni.

The interviewer failed by not asking a followup question about Benavidez. Or he did and it was dropped from the article.
