Top Rank doing Berlanga dirty. At 23 he's still fighting Bums while Teo is a champ

[JimmyValmer]

He aint even fight a top 30 opponent. He is fighting firefighters and gardeners. all his opponents are unknown and bums. At 23 his resume is the weakest among the star prospects right now. Look at fellow top rank prospect Lopez. He a champ now. Garcia fighting a top 10 in his weight. Haney got a belt without fighting someone. At this rate he will be 30 when he gets a title shot

maybe top rank knows he sucks like pbc and tank

Thats because berlanga wasnt considered a blue chip prospect. Guys like teofimo, haney, shakur were touted for the future before they even turned pro. Berlanga is one of those guys that came out of nowhere and now catching a buzz,In short alot of people had high expectations for teo but not much people had berlanga on their radar

lil guys often get their championship matches faster than bigger guys.

It is a tough thing to do until they can gauge him from getting him rounds. I mean even this fight they tried to line up a guy who has never been stopped. We have no idea how good Berlanga is in round 2 or round 3. They cannot up his competition too much until they can get a not too seasoned fighter who is durable enough to extend him some.
