If Berlanga gets by Quigley...

Ok. Sure. But I'm more interested in fights than someone's character out the ring.

 

BJS is done

Has not fought in 2 years

Has been very inactive since 2014, fighting less than twice a year on average, not having 3 fights in a year since 2013

Berlanga may beat him at this point

 

Not fighting in 2 years could be an issue but what fighter has 3 fights a year these days (unless you're a prospect)? They usually only fighting twice a year now, if that.

But even so if Joe manages to be motivated enough to whip himself into shape it'd be a good test for Berlanga.

He's still got a lot of time left before he's thrown into the mix with the top top dogs and having Saunders on his record (win, draw or loss) would be a good step up for him.

 

You are right but fighters should have 2 fights a year, and BJS isn’t some star. He could swing 2-3, instead he’s averaged less than 2 per year since 2014.

I would take Berlanga against this version of BJS

 

I actually like the idea of Munguia Berlanga. It is a fairer Mexican Puerto Rican match up than Canelo Berlanga.

 

They will probably give him the Canelo fight in Sept.

 

Ion even like Munguia at all but I think he runs Berlanga over.

 

I guess if they can't sacrifice him to Canelo, sacrifice him to Munguia who should stop Berlanga. I suppose he's always got a remote chance since he can hit and munguia has lapses in defense, but I think Jaime would be the overwhelming favorite and the best fighter Berlanga has ever fought by a mile.

Hel KO Quigley and it may make the highlight reels for a week or so, but Berlanga just isn't the goods and has to be matched carefully like this until his cash out.
