While drawing praise for knocking out his first 16 opponents in the first round, some questioned other aspects of Edgar Berlanga‘s boxing game. Spectators wondered what would happen if someone was able to stretch the undefeated super middleweight the distance.
Some partial answers have emerged. Last April, he went the full slated eight rounds of his fight against Demond Nicholson to earn a decision victory. Then, despite tearing his left bicep early and being knocked down for the first time in his career in the ninth round of his October fight against Argentina’s Marcelo Coceres, Berlanga toughed out another decision victory.
