Edgar Berlanga says that his opponent, Hamzah Sheeraz, was “fed by a silver spoon” by Turki Alalshikh, who enters the fight on July 12. He thinks he was much more tough than he did. This Saturday Berlanga vs. Sheeraz will fight in the main event in Dazn PPV. The price of PPV is USD 59.99 in the USA and 24.99 GBP in Great Britain.

Canelo Rematch: Berlanga’s Main GoaL

Berlanga (23-1, 18 KO) states that he comes to pull the silver spoon from Hamzh’s mouth, defeated him, and then exploit victory to get a rematch from Canelo Alvarez next year.

“Carlos Adames really won this fight. Everyone knows it. You could see his face. I watched Turki [Alalshikh] The whole fight – said Edgar Berlanga to Dazn Boxing X About the last fight of Hamzah Sheerase with the Middle Libra Master WBC Carlos Adames.

The judges did not do sheeraz without a favor, giving him a draw against Adames, because the result was not recognized by fans as crucial. They saw it as a pure favorite. He deteriorated without pressing the immediate rematch. If Hamzah asked Turki to make a rematch with Adames, he would probably give his request.

Sheeraz: talented win, low popularity

“I watched the fight 20 times. Turki got up from his seat, coming back, returning. [Sheeraz’s promoter] Frank Warren shouted: “Ahhhh”. His trainer knew he lost. That is why he released his trainer because his trainer knew he had lost. He showed it on national television. As he knew. You have a gift, senior, “Berlanga said about the clash of Sheeraz with Adames.

The world of boxing perceived this as an attorney of Adames. It hurt what little popularity Hamzah was for him in Great Britain. US fans did not assess Sheeraz as a good warrior. They saw how he was matched before the fight with Adames. So when he was revealed in this fight, it was not a surprise.

That is why Turki Alalshikh was a bad idea to exploit Hamzah as an opponent of Berlang for this event. He should have changed the situation, matching David Morrell from Berlang and put Sheerase with Imam Khatav. Berlanga and Sheeraz would be huge weaker, but if they were winning, their popularity would augment.

The privilege of “Silver Spoon” Sheerase

“There is a difference. You are fed with a silver spoonNormal? You have one of the richest families in Saudi Arabia, which supported you, “said Berlanga about Sheeraz.” But we come to take it because I have more things to do. I have more frying fish. I want this rematch from Canelo. So this is my main goal. I came from below, man. “

Sheeraz did not fight for any of the Turk’s cards Alalshikha until February last year, when he fought the controversial 12-round draw against Carlos Adames for the WBC Middle Wweight championship in Riyadh.

If Turki was supported by Hamzah, he didn’t have so long. Berlanga did not pay attention to what Turki is saying on social media. He is only interested in Sheeraz or the winner Chris Eubank Jr. vs. Conor Benn Fight as an opponent of Canelo Alvarez in February next year.

Canelo Turki’s plans are excluded by Berlanga

Berlanga is not planned to Turki about the start of Canelo. Turki did not say which he fights for Edgar if he wins, but it will probably be someone threatening. The last thing he needs is Berlang’s matching as the highest rank and Eddie Hearn did, feeding him mainly with creamy enlists and not receiving any value in return because of uncomfortable duels.

Turki should insist that Berlanga fights with a super medium elite weight or, preferably a featherlight bulky weight, because he must buy back in the eyes of fans after losing with Canelo.

“No promoter wanted to sign me. He didn’t want to sign me the highest rank. Golden Boy did not want to sign me. PBC did not want to sign me. Nobody wanted to sign me,” said Berlanga.

This explains why the highest rank decided to match Berlanga with only a indigent opposition to build it for the first 20 fights. If they did not want to sign it, they probably saw disadvantages, hence the cushioned swimming of the canned cans.

Berlanga left the company to sign a contract with Matchroom before the highest rank ever had the opportunity to transfer him against players at the level of pretenders. Matchroom was also not developed by Berlanga, putting him against British national warriors Jason Quigley and Padraig McCryry before they adapted him to Canelo Alvarez last year. No wonder Berlanga was not ready to fight Canelo, taking into account his preparation or lack of it.

Roy Jones Backs David Benavidez to Defeat Jai Opetaia in Cruiserweight Title Clash

Roy Jones Backs David Benavidez to Defeat Jai Opetaia in Cruiserweight Title Clash

David Benavidez and Jai Opetaia continue to be linked to a future cruiserweight clash, and four-division world champion Roy Jones Jr has had his say on who he is favouring to come out on top in their proposed battle.

Benavidez is in hot pursuit of the undisputed cruiserweight title. He is currently in possession of both the WBA and WBO world titles but expected to next face WBC titleholder Michal Cieslak in a three-belt unification showdown on December 5.

Meanwhile, Opetaia has an ongoing lawsuit against the IBF – who stripped him of his world title for a second time earlier this year – as he hopes to be reinstated as champion and subsequently tee up a meeting with Benavidez for all four belts.

Opetaia is simultaneously being linked to a heavyweight debut, mooted to be taking on Deontay Wilder on the Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua undercard in December.

Speaking on the Hall of Game podcastJones says that he expects Benavidez to get the better of Opetaia if they collide.

“I want to see how David fares in that fight [against Opetaia] first [before he moves up to heavyweight]. I think that David probably wins the fight but I want to see how he fares in the fight.”

Should Opetaia not be reinstated as the IBF cruiserweight champion, it is believed that Viddal Riley and David Nyika will meet for the vacant belt. If that were to happen, it remains to be seen whether Benavidez would divert from his three-fight plan in order to capture the undisputed crown.

Floyd Mayweathers Comeback: Agrees to Fight World Champion for WBC Title at 49

Floyd Mayweather's Comeback: Agrees to Fight World Champion for WBC Title at 49

Despite being nine years into retirement, it appears that Floyd Mayweather could have a busy year in the ring if the latest claims are to be believed.

The American boxing icon hung up the gloves after a straightforward victory over Conor McGregor took his professional record to 50-0.

He has since fought exclusively in exhibitions, facing social media stars and combat athletes from other disciplines. That looked set to change this year when, in February, it was announced by Netflix that Mayweather would face Manny Pacquiao for a second time. The September fight was billed as a pro contest.

Mayweather then announced exhibitions with both Mike Tyson and Mike Zambidis, leading to legal issues which postponed the Pacquiao event indefinitely.

The 49-year-old recently said that he plans for both the Tyson and ‘PacMan’ fights to take place in December and then 2027 respectively, but Ryan Garcia has now announced on social media that he has agreed to face Mayweather.

“Trust me at first I thought this was bull***.

“But it’s real Floyd and I agree to a fight.

“147 for the WBC welterweight championship of the world.

“50-0 vs The current champ.”

Garcia also posted an image that appears to show a video call between him and Mayweather.

Garcia won the WBC welterweight world title at the beginning of the year by beating Mario Barriosand his stock is as high as ever following a two-round blowout of Conor Benn in his first defence.

He has reportedly now entered talks for a unification against Teofimo Lopez, who is appealing to the WBA to postpone a mandatory fight against Jack Catterall.

Though the WBC would undoubtedly approve Mayweather’s title challenge – as they did for a returning Pacquiao last year – fans will be dubious of Garcia’s claims, particularly given the fact that Mayweather mentioned no such fight in his most recent interview.

"Former World Champion with 90% KO Ratio Hopes to Face David Benavidez in Upcoming Fight"

David Benavidez has proven that he is not afraid of any challenge in boxing, but one rumoured opponent is hoping that he ‘hasn’t scared Benavidez’ off from a potential cruiserweight battle.

‘The Mexican Monster’ reigned as the WBC light-heavyweight champion, but made the 25lb jump from 175lbs to 200lbs earlier this year to challenge for Gilberto Ramirez’s unified WBA and WBO titles – and scored an emphatic knockout to claim both belts.

Now, should he come through Michal Cieslak unscathed in December, Benavidez has revealed a three-fight plan that includes a potential undisputed title showdown with Jai Opetaia, a clash with Artur Beterbiev, and a possible move up to heavyweight.

When discussing the proposed battle with former undisputed light heavyweight champion Beterbiev, Benavidez joked to The Ring that he respects Beterbiev for pursuing a fight with him despite being ’45 years old’.

“Beterbiev has definitely reached out to our team. He’s actively been trying to make that fight. We want to give him what he wants. You know, I respect Beterbiev. He’s about 45 years old, and the fact he’s calling me out, I have great respect for him.”

In response, Beterbiev – who is actually 41 years old – has posted a training clip onto his Instagramhinting at a future fight with Benavidez in the caption.

“I hope nobody was scared off by my ’45-year-old’ physique!”

Beterbiev, who has a 90% knockout ratio from his 22 fights, is also being touted for a light-heavyweight trilogy with fierce foe, Dmitry Bivol, where a victory could tee up a mammoth meeting between he and Benavidez for mid-to-late 2027.
