Canelo Alvarez has made it clear that he will not be showing any sympathy for challenger Edgar Berlanga in their upcoming headliner on September 14th. Despite the trash-talking from Berlanga, Canelo remains focused on punishing the #1 ranked WBA mandatory in their match at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Many fans and analysts are concerned that the upcoming fight between Canelo and Berlanga could turn out to be another one-sided mismatch. With Canelo holding multiple titles in the super middleweight division, some question the choice of Berlanga as an opponent. The lack of credible wins on Berlanga’s resume and his quick rise to a big fight have raised eyebrows among the boxing community.
The price of the pay-per-view event has also come under scrutiny, as fans feel hesitant to pay a premium price for what could potentially be another mismatch. Canelo’s recent fight choices, including Berlanga as an opponent, have led to calls for a drop in PPV pricing to reflect the lack of competitive matchups. Additionally, the undercard featuring fighters like Danny Garcia and Erislandy Lara is not seen as enough to justify the cost.
Despite the criticism and doubts surrounding the upcoming fight, Canelo Alvarez remains determined to put on a show for the fans. In response to Berlanga’s trash-talking, Canelo has vowed to bring his best on September 14th and show no compassion for his opponent. This declaration of intent from Canelo sets the stage for a potentially explosive showdown in the ring.
The upcoming fight between Canelo Alvarez and Edgar Berlanga has generated a mix of excitement and skepticism within the boxing world. While Canelo is determined to put on a dominant performance, questions remain about the competitive nature of the matchup and the value of the PPV event. As the fight date approaches, all eyes will be on Canelo and Berlanga to see if they can deliver a memorable and competitive bout for the fans.
