March 21, 2025
The frustrated Jai Opetoi will have to wait to harmonize his global boxing lanes, but he undertook not to underestimate his next opponent in what the Australian called the fight “stay busy”.
IBF and Master Ring Cruiser in Libra, Opitaia (27-0) -australia present in Australia for pounds for pounds No. 1-they are involved with the undefeated Italian Claudio Squeo (17-0) May 13 on Gold Coast.
Voluntary defense, confirmed on Friday [AEDT]He comes after the Opetoi camp pressed the hit of unification with the star Mexican Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez.
Ramirez has WBA and WBO stripes, and Odetaa desperately fights for them, he was unable to provide any union duels from the first winning titles three years ago.
The Italian is arranged by IBF on issue 14 in the circuitous weight classification and does not appear in the top ten of the ring.
“It’s bull —-. They should fight the best,” said Odetaa Dazn after confirming his fight.
“I have two belts, he (Ramirez) has two belts, I want to press on this fight.
“It just doesn’t make sense to me, why it didn’t cross the line … The only reason for me would be that he tilted.
“We really press these uniform fights, but I can only do that.
“This is another” Stay “fight that I don’t take lightly.
“I am chasing Zurdo. My eyes are closed on them (uniform fights), now this guy is on the road and we have to remove him.”
Opetoa made a huge statement in its last defense, brutally throwing the modern Zealand Challenger David Nyika in the fourth round at Gold Coast.
Jai Opetoi (on the left) stands when the judge counts David Nyika. The bronze Olympic medalist Nyika fought in three weeks of notice after the mandatory claimant Huseyin Cinkary withdrew with ankle injury.
The 29 -year -old Otetai shocked the master of Miris Bledis to win the lanes for the first time in 2022, despite the end of the fight with the jaw broken in two places.
Since then, he fought only five times, including a rematch with Bliedis, injuries and negotiations of negotiations contributing to the refusal to the Australian great duels he wants.
Promoter Eddie Hearn is the optimist that he will secure this fight this year, and Ramirez will probably fulfill his mandatory defense of WBA against Yuniel Dorticos.
“But there are ways around him (fighting with a compulsory opponent) and I just don’t know if they want to throw ankle (against Opetoi),” said Ramirez’s caution.
“We don’t want to walk on the water, but they would like to get on the ring with him to other fighters.
“We know that great fights are coming … And the events of Gold Coast are wild and we want to go back there.”

Veteran Gabe Rosado and Bill Haney went to this this week in Podcastie because of Devin Haney fighting with Undercard Ryan Garcia on May 2 after he sued him for a battery after the battery after the fight in April last year.
Bill was reportedly nervous Rosado, saying that it was a mistake to agree on Jose Ramirez Fight for tuning for a card on May 2, because Devin could lose. The former WBC champion and WBO lightweight welterweight Ramirez (29-2, 18 KO) is unsafe and fights at a sufficient level of 32 to defeat Haney.
“Money control”
Rosado told Papa to Bill that he was controlled by moneyAnd he feels that this shows the weakness for Devin (31-0, 15 KO) to be on the Garcia website, in the face of Jose Ramirez at the Times Square party in Modern York.
Pride comes out of the window when he receives the money that Devin is on his fight with Ramirez, and part of the contract is for him to establish a rematch with Ryan in October.
However, where he can go wrong, Devin and Garcia have to win their fights on the card on May 2 to their rematch.
Ryan is in the face of the great Puncher Rolando “Rolly” Romero on the card and should win, but you never know. Rolly has power and catches Kingry at an ideal moment when he left the annual dismissal.
Subordinate shame
Pink gabe: “All b *** a ** you fight on the Ryan Garcia card,” said Gabe ThaboxingvoiceBilling Bill Haney with some truths about where Devin’s professional situation is now, fighting on Undercard Ryan on May 2.
Bill Haney: “At the age of 26 he earns more money than you.”
Gabe: “Money tells you what to do. You are controlled by money. You have sued him for the battery, and now you are on the Ryan card.”
Bill: “It’s part of the game.”
Gabe: “You took money for additional weight [due to Ryan missing weight]And you sued. What kind of man should you be on Podkardie? “
Bill: “It’s part of the game.”
Gabe: “If you are such a great shot, why did you not do your own s ***? You got the Haney promotions. You call yourself promoters, but you do not do s ***. They threw you a carrot and you had to take it. You should stop the fight to save your son from ** pissed off [against Ryan]. You are a penniless excuse for your father because you let your son get his ** rhythm. “

Edwards on “A-Side” Berlanga: Star Status Clash, Title Lure and The Benavidez Featance
Published
6 hours agoon
March 20, 2025
Caleba Plant coach, Stephen Edwards, says that he does not think that there will be a fight between him and Edgar Berlang. He listened to Berlanga (23-01, 18 Kos), saying: “F *** Caleb Plant” after his victory in the first round on Jonathan Gonzalezem-Ortrizem on March 15, and he considered that he was not interested.
First money mentality
Berlanga said in an interview that the plant is not what he wanted. I want Jaime Munguia or Jermall Charlo. He thinks that defeating one of these guys will be a golden ticket for a rematch with Canelo Alvarez. This is a fight that Berlanga talked about endlessly. He got “Bag “ Fighting Canelo in September last year and wants second aid.
Edgar knows that killers such as a plant, Oslyys Iglesias, David Benavidez, Diego Pachco and Christian Mbilli would be too risky to achieve their goal. So it is elderly, inactive, unintentional 35-year-old Jermall Charlo and recently twice Munguia.
If the box were together, warriors like Berlanga would have to lead the glove through all the best rivals to get the title shot against Canelo. As we saw from Berlang, he didn’t have to do it. For Edgar to get a “bag”, he had to overcome these three:
– padraig mccrry
– Jason Quigley
– Roamer Alexis Angulo
“I have not heard that she calls Caleb. I heard him say,” Fuck Caleb, “said coach Stephen Edwards Millcity boxing Caleb Plant does not call for Edgar Berlang after winning the victory over Jonathan Gonzalezem -ortiz last week. “I have not heard that he says,” I want to fight the Caleb plant. ” He said “the fucking plant” and he still said it. This is not next to it. “
Berlanga definitely did not call the plant after the fight against Gonzalez-Ortr. When he gave an interview, he repeatedly repeated: “Fuck a caleb plant.” Asked who he wants to fight, Berlanga said: “Jaime Munguia and Jermall Charlo.” The fans did not listen to him and mistakenly thought that he was raising the fight of plants. The same CV Like him.
Munguia was adapted to the scrub in his entire career until he received the fight against Canelo Alvarez in May last year, which he lost to a unilateral 12-round decision. In his last fight, Munguua fought with an unknown guy, Bruno Surace, who had an undefeated record filled with any names. Surprisingly, Mungua was knocked out. This is not because Surace is good. He lost, because from the first day he was only a work of noise.
Requirements on the side of A.
“I saw Berlanga’s indispensable with Eddie Hearn for not fighting William Scull. I understand why he was nervous. I think he and Caleb will have problems with the fight. Edgar thinks he is a bigger star and will want the most money. Caleb believes that he is better than Edgar, and he is a bigger star and he needs most of the money.
“Caleb Plant was previously a world champion and had the title defense. When you sit and have negotiations, all these things come to the one who will be a party and who will defend B. [with Scull]. “
Stephen deepened badly. Berlanga said that the reason he wanted to fight with the super middle champion IBF, William Scull, is that he believed it was a win, and he could employ the title as a bait to get a rematch with a uniform champion of three stripes Canelo Alvarez. Berlanga earned $ 10 million in the fight against Canelo in September last year and wants a quick rematch to get a similar payment.
The money he earns against other warriors is much smaller. So, if Berlanga defeated Sculla, Canelo would fight him again to capture the fourth lane to undoubted the championship about the middle superpower on the fight line with Trywford in September. While boxing society would not like to see the rematch between Canelo and Berlanga, it would still happen. However, this will not be the case, because Berlanga does not fight Scull.
Benavidez fear
“Edgar never fought with Benavidez and I don’t think the fight would never happen. I don’t think so, because Benavidez is a bit too much for Berlang. They could fight, but he [Berlanga] He followed Canelo because he is a super large star [allowing Edgsr to get a big payday].
“Edgar has one of the best managers in boxing at Keith Connolly. This guy knows what he is doing and will not let Edgar fight Benavidez. Edgar is a good warrior, but do you see Benavidez’s fights? These are challenging fights. They are challenging. [Berlanga] He would not fight him because they lost, and this will ruin his brand a bit. This is one thing losing to Canelo from the decision.
“You can say that he was not experienced enough. Losing to Benavidez by brutal beating or a knockout, it would simply not be good for his brand, especially in a fight, which he does not have to take. So I do not see that he would fight him,” said Stephen.
Berlanga will probably fight Benavidez at some point, but only for money, not because he thinks he can win or deserves to fight. If Berlanga moves to 175, he will face a pliable objection that he will build his record 23-1 in 168 and was looking for a great payment day.
The guy is so predictable in the way his management fits him. He never fought with the highest level before fighting Canelo in September last year, and now, when he lost, he returned to fight with tomato cans, on which he built his produced record.
