Canelo Álvarez delivered another virtuoso performance by dropping the previously unbeaten Edgar Berlanga on his way to defending his unified WBC, WBA and WBO Super Middleweight World Championships via unanimous decision.
Berlanga remained game throughout, continuing to throw punches and look for openings, even as Canelo broke him down with his variedattack.s. In the end, Canelo’s 49% connect rate on power punches buoyed him to victory by scores of 118-109 twice and 117-110.
Following the win Canelo was interviewed in the ring and fans were all left wondering who was holding the belt behind him.
