Edgar Berlanga (22-0, 17 KOs) believes he will have the power on his side against Saul Alvarez (61-2-2, 39 KOs). Their fight is scheduled for September 14 in Las Vegas, and at stake will be Canelo's WBC, WBA and WBO super middleweight belts.
"I will be the strongest puncher in this fight, I have no doubt about that. A thousand percent that I punch harder than Canelo. I've been able to knock out guys weighing 105-110 pounds during sparring sessions," said the undefeated challenger.
"I have ex-criminals on my team who spent many years in prison. And I have the same mentality in the ring. There I'm reincarnated as a killer and on September 14 I'll be ready for anything. Canelo? He needs air to live just like I do and he bleeds just like I do. It's going to be a spectacular fight," Berlanga promised.
