Well now, let me tell you about this big fight that happened. You know, everyone was talkin’ about it for days, ’cause it was Canelo Alvarez again, the one who’s been goin’ round and round in the ring like a mad bull. It was one of them fights where folks from all over the world were watchin’ to see who’d come out on top, and I’ll tell you, Canelo didn’t disappoint. It was during the Mexican Independence Day weekend too, so you know it was a big deal.
Now, Canelo, he’s a real champion, that one. He fought Edgar Berlanga, and lemme tell you, Berlanga tried, but he just couldn’t keep up with the man. It wasn’t even close! Canelo won with a unanimous decision, and that means all them judges were in agreement – Canelo was the clear winner. The scores were 117-110, 118-109, and 118-109. Ain’t no mistakin’ that, right? Canelo showed everyone just how strong he is, and why he’s still at the top of his game in the super middleweight division.
Now, folks might not remember this, but Canelo had his ups and downs in the past too. Back in 2022, he lost to Dmitry Bivol, a big ol’ fella from Russia, but let me tell ya, Canelo was on an 8-win streak before that. He ain’t no quitter. He came back strong after that and didn’t let one loss stop him. Before Bivol, he even had a draw with Gennady Golovkin back in 2017, but still, that man’s got heart. Even with them losses, he came back and still made big money, that’s for sure.
Speaking of money, you might be wonderin’ how much Canelo made for this here fight. Well, let me tell ya, it ain’t chump change! For this bout against Berlanga, he took home around $30 to $35 million, and that’s not even countin’ the extra money he got from the pay-per-view sales. I don’t know about you, but I’d be more than happy to take that kind of money home. And that’s just one fight! This man’s makin’ money left and right.
Now, let’s talk about Berlanga a bit. Poor fella, he did his best, but just didn’t have what it took to take down Canelo. I reckon he’ll be back, but he’s gotta work hard if he wants to get a chance at that title. It’s a tough game, this boxing business. But, like I said, Canelo is on top right now, and it don’t look like anyone’s takin’ that belt from him anytime soon. He’s got that crown tight on his head, and he knows how to keep it there.
So, if you were wonderin’ who won Canelo’s fight, well, it was Canelo Alvarez, just like always. He’s one of them fighters who keeps goin’ no matter what. And you better believe, he’s still a big name in the sport, makin’ big money and takin’ names along the way. Ain’t no stoppin’ him now, folks.
