    Just catched the replay, It was a dominant win but Edgar did decently even after getting dropped , at least he didn't ran away like chicken Charlo, landed a few good hands of his owm too ,a bit of polish on bis game and he could be competitive against the future of 168 div, would like to watch him against guys like Mungia or Mbilli,
    Canelo on the other hand, is on an evident decline but still dominating this young guns, I think Turki will offer him the TC fight next.

      Berlanga literally backed himself into the corner the entire fight, fought small and is just a bad fighter. Canelo made him look better than he is.

          Berlanga showed us that the reason Canelo is ducking Benny is because he knows he can only fool us but so many times. His hand picking easy fights is enough already.

          Berlanga proved that Canelo is only a fraction of his former self. Credit to Berlanga for not running and folding like a beach chair like Charlo and Munguia. However, his strategy to fight in the corners or on the ropes gave him zero chance to pull off the upset. The near fact that Berlanga took his best shots and stayed in the fight shows Canelo is not the same fighter at this stage of his career and a different fighter without the PED’s.

          Crawford should earn the right to fight Canelo and he should stop hanging on Turki’s d i c k and looking like a fool. Turki, should make Crawford earn his retirement check. Fight Benny, Boots, or even Berlanga who at least we know won’t quit like Charlo, and who did better than Munguia or Plant. At least Berlanga showed heart and made Canelo look ordinary.

            With last night Canelo display, Benny will stand no chance. Canny was scary in that ring, the skills the hand speed, bicep n body punches. There was a lot going on in that ring that the biased Eyez can't c.

              If Beterbiev beats The bivol? canelo will fight him!

                Nothing against Canelo other than the complete ducking of DB but his fights are looking like repetitive groundhog day, especially Munguia and Berlanga. And when did they start pronouncing his name "Berlonga" instead of Berlanga?

                  I hope that as well man but judging by some of the comments here Benavidez getting way too over hyped imho ,folks keep calling him a 'monster' but didn't exactly look like one in his last outing against an past prime, faded and out of retirement guy ,Benny does throw lot volume but guys here not addressing his defensive openings and poor footwork ,guys here thinking he'll just easily go through Canelo and beat him inside the pocket. That I must watch Lol.

                  I think even this version of Canelo beats Benavidez in close contested match, the thing is Benavidez supposedly set to challenge the winner of Bivol/Beterbiev so there is a big chance of him losing his 0 if he does takes that fight. We'll see what takes place.

                    People assuming Benavidez can KO Canelo--not likely. It might be the other way around. Canelo hits harder and has better defense. Benavidez wants the fight so make it--should be good.

                      Glad I didn't watch this as the result was not a shocker. Also people got ripped off paying 89.99. I see that using a VPN you can get it on Triller for 34.99 CAD when setting location to a European country and having an account based in Canada.
