Edgar Berlanga says he desires to go on a weight loss plan to face Gervonta Davis at a 150-lb catchweight in 2025. The previous tremendous middleweight world title Challenger Berlanga (22-1, 17 KOs) believes he can take the burden off by occurring a fasting weight loss plan just like the rapper “50 Cent” did.
The Brooklyn, New York native Berlanga (22-1, 17 KOs) is younger sufficient to lose 40 lbs to get to 150, particularly if the final 20 lbs is water weight. He may then rehydrate to 170+ lbs and crush the tiny 5’5″ Tank Davis (30-0, 28 KOs).
The Matchroom-promoted Berlanga has become a combat hustler on the extent of Jake Paul, attempting to get massive fights however with out working to earn them. For instance, Berlanga beat these 4 low-level fighters to earn a title shot towards Canelo:
– Padraig McCrory: 36
– Jason Quigley
– Roamer Alexis Angulo: 40
– Steve Rolls: 40
Berlanga, 27, reportedly rehydrated to the 190s for his current title problem towards unified tremendous middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez on September 14th, which he misplaced by a large 12-round unanimous Determination on the T-Cell Area in Las Vegas.
Tank Davis isn’t loopy sufficient to comply with combat the 6’1″, 190+ lb Berlanga and be outweighed by an infinite quantity of weight on the night time of the combat. Possibly if Berlanga had the form of fanbase that Ryan Garcia does, Tank may take into account the concept if he had been determined for cash.
Berlanga isn’t well-liked within the U.S., and his little reputation in small pockets of New York Metropolis doubtless diminished after the best way he fought in his loss to Canelo. He fought to outlive and didn’t put his chin on the road. Berlanga doesn’t wish to danger going out on his defend towards Canelo after being dropped in spherical three.
The scores had been
118-109
117-111
118-108
After the good payday of a number of million he received towards Canelo, Berlanga doesn’t wish to take a pay reduce and has referred to as out these fighters:
Anthony Joshua
Daniel Dubois
Jaime Munguia
Jermall Charlo
I wish to combat tank subsequent yr I’ll go on fasted weight loss plan like 50 cent did and we make the combat occur at 150lbs.
