This on paper should be a very hard fight, because the opponent (preferably Shane Mosley Jr. or Buddy McGirt Jr. if they are willing to take the risk) WBC minor belt will be on the line as Edgar jumped up the rankings after Sparking 16-1 Cesar Nunez inside one round last month.
KO1ing Mosley Jr. would be That'd show he's no piece of Brunson/Raymi fluff (and set him on his way to even leaving Valero choking on his dust)
Let me ask you this: If he doesn't KO his next opponent until the second round...is he exposed? Exposed as what? A non-first-round-KO'er-everytimer? And what is a less wordy thing that you could call that? I do not have a word-WORDS...fail me. I fail them. I don't want to put all the blame on the words. We, BOTH OF US,...fail...each other.
And now I hear this young man is going after an abolitionist! What is this country even coming to, when neither abolitionists nor fascists are safe? Reprehensible!
If he fails to KO1 Cassius Clay, he will drop to the status of an ordinary undefeated prospect He is literally a few punches away from making boxing history More important than shattering the 1st rd consecutive KO record, is becoming the First KO1 World Champion, if he can secure that he instantly transcends into an ATG
For a second I thought he was making a serious, non-trolling post and was referring to ex-UFC fighter (and now boxing journeyman and newly successful ESPN mainstay, going 4-0 so far this year on the network) Clay Jordan Collard, who does go by the ring moniker/tribute "Cassius". Berlanga is a super middle, as is Collard... made sense. Considering the source, though, I should've just assumed tirado was screwing around.
Which weight is he gonna stay? Has fought in the middle, now super middle IMO without chance with big guys from LHW. More money more competition in MW
Its official Edgar is taking on the never stopped super-middleweight Lanell Bellows 17 October Edgar could have easily feasted on a blown-up Welter ala Amir Khan or Kell brooks. Instead he is taking on a Super Middleweight that was never-ever stopped as a pro or amateur, Lanell Bellows is coming into his 30th professional fight. We can be certain that Lanell will do everything possible to survive the first 240 seconds of Paleolithic violence Berlanga is about to pour on him.
Bellows was KO'd in 3 by journeyman Mike Snider in their first encounter, but it was changed to a NC for reasons unknown. Does anyone have footage of that bout?
Sir please back that big claim, as far as official records go Bellows was never ever stopped in his lifetime.
June 20, 2017, Las Vegas, Mike Snider WKO Lanell Bellows, Round 3 time 2:30. August 16, 2017, changed to No Decision per NAC 467.850 (which means a doping violation). event
