On Saturday Edgar Berlanga (20-0, 16 KOs) will face Jason Quigley (20-2, 14 KOs). If he wins Billy Joe Saunders (30-1, 14 KOs) is ready to be next in line.

BJS decided to continue his career as a pro, and is now shedding weight, which he has gained a lot. The former world middleweight and super middleweight champion, however, is not going to regain his position with easy fights, but wants to get something big right away. And something big for him would be a duel with Berlanga.

“I lost to Canelo due to an eye injury, but Berlanga is a ‘waiter’ and I would have beaten him even if I only had one eye. He made a record with "bags", and I'm ready to teach him a boxing lesson. Maybe even bring mom with him, because after everything is over, he will call me dad, ”said Saunders in his style.

Sam Berlanga does not hide the fact that when signing a cooperation contract with Eddie Hearn, he has plans for a fight with Saul Alvarez (59-2-2, 39 KOs) in the near future.
