Canelo Alvarez Set for Bout with Edgar Berlanga

Edgar Berlanga is set to face Canelo Alvarez in a much-anticipated super middleweight bout on Mexican Independence Day, with Berlanga aiming to upset the boxing icon by knocking him out in the sixth round. Canelo, who holds multiple super middleweight titles and is a heavy favorite, acknowledges the challenge posed by the younger, undefeated Berlanga but predicts his own victory by knockout in the eighth round. The fight, taking place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, will mark Canelo's 66th professional bout, as he reflects on a career spanning nearly two decades and expresses a desire to continue fighting for another four to five years. Both fighters are aware of the historic rivalry between Puerto Rico and Mexico, adding emotional stakes to the event. Canelo also hinted at a potential future matchup with Conor McGregor, aiming to demonstrate boxing's superiority. Despite his success, Canelo still yearns for a rematch with Floyd Mayweather to avenge the first loss of his career, which continues to linger in his mind.
