“He needs to get out of his skin”. Hearn made a prediction for Canelo and Berlanga fight
Famous promoter Eddie Hearn made a prediction for the fight between Saul Alvarez and Edgar Berlanga.
Quote: “He's got to box out of his skin. There are a lot of people that turn up [against Canelo] and are a little bit overawed, right? They look to survive the 12 rounds and say, ‘I went the distance.’ Berlanga won’t do that. He will try and win this fight. It makes it more dangerous for him, right?
But at the same time, if you don’t do that, you’re not gonna win, so what’s the fucking point? And I like his spirit. I like his mentality, and he's gonna come to fight. You have to hope, as well, because Canelo’s so good, that at some point he hasn’t had a great camp or he hasn’t tried that hard in camp, or he’s getting a little bit tired of it all.” told Hearn BoxingScene.
Recall: The bout between Canelo and Berlanga will take place on September 14, on the Independence Day of Mexico.
Earlier, the titled Mexican reacted harshly to the treshtock of his future opponent, threatening him with a “beating” in the ring.
