Edgar Berlanga was labelled “One Notefighter” prior to the Battle of Hamza Thearaz

Boxing analyst Sean Porter has rejected Edgar Berlanga “One Note Fighter” Heading to his WBC Super Middleweight Title Eliminator against Hamzah Sheeraz on July 12th dazn ppv. Porter has chosen underdog Sheeraz (21-0-1, 17 Kos) to unleash his upset over his favourite Berlanga (23-1, 18 Kos) in the 12-round headlining at Louis Armstrong Stadium.

Berlanga Style: Porter’s View

Porter sees Berlanga as a limited fighter, and he believes Ciaraz is too capable of dealing with him in this fight. Sean appears to have formed Edgar’s views from his defeat to Canelo Alvarez in 2024, where he changed his normal fighting style and chose the box.

He may have never seen Berlanga’s next battle. It was Berlanga fighting as he always has, and he looked like pure 24K gold.

Many are riding in the July 12 battle between Berlanga and Hamza. The winner could face Canelo next February. Turki Alalshikh mentioned that he was running in the Canelo sweepstakes with only the winners of Sheeraz and Chris Eubank Jr. vs. Conor Benn 2, but Berlanga was able to put himself in the slot with Sheeraz’s highlight reel knockout.

“He’s a very one notebook fighter. He’s looking for the perfect punch. If that perfect punch isn’t there, he won’t do much to set up anything else,” Sean Porter told Ring Magazine. channel. “Sheeraz is a really good boxer.”

What Porter is trying to say is that Berlanga is looking for a knockout for his shots and punches. It is logical that he has power, as he saw its ineffectiveness when he puts it in the box in his battle with Canelo Alvarez.

Berlanga’s rough return was ignored

In that fight, Berlanga left the slugging and fell back in despair. When he finally returned to his offensive Seek and Dostroy style on the 12th, he fired Canelo with a shot.

What fans saw is that if Edgar fought the whole battle that way, he either knocked out Canelo or made a clear decision. The Mexican couldn’t match the power and punch output of Veranga on the 12th, and if he had started earlier, it would have been like that.

“He showed himself well against (Carlos) Adams, so Sheilaz won it. I think Sheilaz will do that. I have respect for Berlanga now that I didn’t have before,” Porter said.

Porter’s Adames analysis has been raised in question

It appears Porter didn’t see Sheilaz’s fight against WBC middleweight champion Carlos Adams in February last year. Hamza did not show “self” in the fight. On the contrary, he was poor throughout, beating the entire battle by Adames.

The judges scored it in a 12-round draw, but the boxing world saw it as an Adames’ clear victory. I watched the fight and Adams won 11-1. With no rounds that Sheeraz thought to have won, it can be argued that Adames should have won 12-0.
