Who Did Canelo Last Fight?
Canelo put his WBA (Super), WBC, IBF, WBO, and The Ring super middleweight titles on the line against Jaime Munguía on May 4, emerging victorious by unanimous decision after 12 rounds. Other recent wins include UD’s over Jermell Charlo, John Ryder, and Gennady Golovkin, whom he defeated in the third of their trilogy of fights. His most recent loss was to Dmitry Bivol in May 2022; Canelo’s only other career loss came all the way back in 2013 when he lost his WBC and The Ring light middleweight titles to legendary boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Who Did Berlanga Last Fight?
Edgar Berlanga’s last fight was in February against Padraig McCrory, whom he defeated in a sixth-round TKO. Of his 22 fights, Berlanga has won 17 by knockout and only five by decision. In fact, Berlanga claimed in a recent interview that he’s the hardest puncher Canelo has ever faced.
Who is Canelo Fighting Next?
Canelo’s next fight beyond Berlanga is not yet set, and obviously his opponent will depend on what happens this weekend. However, the noise around Canelo “ducking” David Benavidez is growing deafening from those in the boxing world. Although he has moved up to light heavyweight for his next fight between the winner of Artur Beterbiev vs. Dmitry Bivol on Oct. 12, Benavidez has said he’d like to return to 168-pounds to take on Canelo. The earliest that fight will take place would be some time next year in 2025.
What Are the Odds for Canelo-Berlanga?
As of Monday, Sep. 9, the current DraftKings odds for Canelo-Berlanga are Canelo -1800 and Berlanga +1000, with 81% of bets favoring Alvarez.
