Edgar Berlanga posted the following six fights he wished after his March eighth combat, rumored to be in opposition to journeyman Gabriel Rosado (26-17-1, 15 KOs) in Puerto Rico. Rosado hasn’t gained a combat in 4 years since 2021.
Six Fights, Zero Likelihood?
He would probably lose to all the six fights that Berlanga desires. That might make it troublesome for him to combat the remaining 5 with out a huge backlash from the fighters who select to combat him.
Edgar included Jermall Charlo and the lately knocked-out Jaime Munguia on the checklist. Even these guys would probably be far too proficient in opposition to the a lot greater Berlanga.
Apparently, Berlanga (22-1, 17 KOs) included a rematch with Canelo Alvarez as one of many six fights he desires, which appears extremely unlikely with out him beating somebody high-level at mild heavyweight or cruiserweight.
Canelo won’t ever combat Berlanga with out doing one thing past his capabilities, like beating David Benavidez, David Morrell, Artur Beterbiev, or Dmitry Bivol.
Berlanga reportedly rehydrated to 193 lbs for his 12-round unanimous resolution loss to Canelo on September 14th final 12 months. The Brooklyn, New York, Berlanga seemed huge within the ring with Canelo that night time. Surprisingly, he was capable of make the 168-lb.
Being that large, he ought to combat at mild heavyweight. Berlanga’s resolution to remain at 168 is comprehensible, however he’s not proficient sufficient to beat even fringe contenders at 175.

Fighters like Caleb Plant and Hamzah Sheeraz would probably leap on the likelihood to combat Berlanga. The previous IBF tremendous middleweight champion has already tried to get a combat in opposition to him, however with no luck. If Plant did try and combat him, he would possibly ignore him and proceed to play it secure, ready and hoping Canelo would bless him with a rematch.
