The boxing world is heating up, and Puerto Rican fighters are making waves with some major bouts on the horizon. In this edition of Caliricans Sports, we’re bringing you the latest updates from Xander Zayas, Edgar Berlanga, and Jan Paul Rivera-Pizarro. These matchups promise some serious action, so let’s dive into what’s coming!
Edgar Berlanga’s Bold Prediction: Will Canelo Deliver a 6th-Round KO?
Puerto Rican boxing sensation Edgar Berlanga is making waves with a bold prediction for Canelo Alvarez’s upcoming fight at the T-Mobile Arena. Berlanga, known for his devastating knockout power—securing 17 KOs in 22 fights—predicts that Canelo will end his next bout with a knockout in the 6th round!
Canelo is no stranger to the spotlight, having lost only twice in an impressive 65-fight career. Berlanga’s belief in a 6th-round knockout may seem daring, but considering his own track record, it’s a prediction worth considering. Can Canelo live up to Berlanga’s forecast and deliver a KO that early in the fight? We’ll have to wait and see.
Xander Zayas vs. Damian Sosa: Showdown at Madison Square Garden
Next up, Puerto Rican rising star Xander Zayas is gearing up for a major face-off against Mexico’s Damian Sosa in a 10-round bout at Madison Square Garden on September 27th. Zayas is undefeated so far and coming off a unanimous win over Patrick Teixeira in June, while Sosa has just won against Marques Valle. This fight is shaping up to be intense!
Zayas, who holds a perfect 5-0 record at Madison Square Garden, is focused on conditioning and staying sharp, both inside and outside the ring. With his undefeated streak on the line and New York as the battleground, this will be a must-watch for boxing fans. Will Zayas keep his perfect record intact at Madison Square Garden?
Jan Paul Rivera-Pizarro vs. Andy Beltran: Fireworks in Caguas
Finally, we can’t forget about Jan Paul Rivera-Pizarro, who’s preparing to face Andy Beltran on October 11th in Caguas, Puerto Rico. This clash is part of the Most Valuable Prospects 9 event, with the WBC Latino regional super featherweight title up for grabs.
Rivera-Pizarro has already beaten Justin Goodson and David Perez this year, but Beltran, undefeated in 2024, will be defending his title for the second time. With these two hungry fighters stepping into the ring, expect nothing less than an all-out war.
