    well at least Canelo isn't dancing with a no body. Berlanga is probably second best opponent for him now, the first being you know who and it's not someone named Terence.

    Berlangy is garbage. A chinny hype job ''KO artist'' who hasn't beaten anyone above D level and has only stopped one of his last six opponents.

    **** card. Berlanga is a terrible opponent and Garcia hasn't been relevant in 3 years.

    The worst part about this fiasco is not that the fight is a joke. It's that a substantial amount of fans are going to defend Canelo and gaslight how it's a good fight. It's probably gonna sell out as well.

    I never thought Danny vs Erislandy would get made honestly. It's sure marinated for a while. I don't know what Danny has done to deserve a title shot at 160, but I'm not that averse to it weirdly.

    Hearn came through with Berlanga and that Canelo payday. Crazy.

    Also Garcia hasn't fought in 2 plus years by the time this card comes around

    I hope they stack the undercard, otherwise it's going to flop. Alot of people don't know who Edgar Berlanga is and that will hurt PPV sales.

    Also Canelo is absolutely going to stop Berlanga who hasn't beaten anyone of note impressively (or anyone of note at all).

    What a terrible card. So far. I doubt they have money for better undercard. Canelo takes almsot all of it.

    Big Canelo fan here but I'll be laughing if this fight backfires on him. Very little interest in watching/paying for this card but I'll be in Mexico most of Sep. and I hear It might be free there so we'll see how this plays out.
