Edgar Berlanga’s desire to prove his doubters wrong by delivering a knockout blow to his opponent, Jason Quigley. Berlanga has been criticized for his lack of experience against top-tier opponents, and many boxing experts and fans have questioned whether he is truly as talented as past and present promoters/networks “Hyped” him to be. By defeating Quigley in a dominant fashion, Berlanga hopes to silence the skeptics and prove that he is a force to be reckoned with in the boxing world, especially in a lucrative division that showcases the cash cow and the Undisputed King Canelo Alvarez, The Mexican Monster David Benavidez, 2 dvision World champion Demetrius Andrade who also shared the ring with Quigley in which Quigley ended with a broken jaw delivered by Andrade via 2nd round knock out victory on November 19, 2021. The stakes are high, and the pressure is on for Berlanga to deliver a convincing victory.

Its a pretty long line to get that shot, yet with an explosive performance and already in the same banner and network that Canelo is currently partnered with (Matchroom/DAZN). Berlanga may very well skip the line. Aside from the 7 division and featherweight UNDISPUTED World champion Amanda Serrano. Berlanga has captured the excitement and imagination of the Puerto Rican fan base that been waiting for someone special to cheer on massively like legendary Puerto Rican fighters such as, Miguel Cotto, Tito Trinidad, Hector Camacho etc. Puerto Rico vs Mexico a traditional rivalry that always excites the boxing world.
But first thing first, Berlanga needs to take care of Irishman Quigley before thinking about any potential fight with the pride of Mexico Canelo. Last time there was a Puerto Rican vs Ireland rivalry in Madison Square Garden. Ireland Was the victor thus Katie Taylor. Will Berlanga settle the score?
