Edgar Berlanga is one young force in the sport, who has come into the limelight really quickly. Defying all the odds, Berlanga made his way into boxing with all his hard work. He took up boxing at a very young age and never really looked back. With the cracking skill-sets Berlanga possesses, his fans even cite him as the ‘Puerto Rican’ Mike Tyson. But is he really a Puerto Rican? What are Edgar Berlanga’s roots?

‘The Chosen One’ was born on May 18, 1997, in Brooklyn, New York City, USA. His family moved to the USA prior to him being born. That said, Berlanga is both American and Puerto Rican.

The 23-year-old is also a gold medallist in the 2015 US Youth National Championships, held in 2015. A year after achieving that, Berlanga made his pro boxing debut against Jorge Pedroza and claimed a KO in the first round of the fight.

Moving on, he only improved with time and kept adding constant wins to his resume. He is a sheer oppressor who likes to adopt an offensive approach to counter his opponents.

With this approach, Berlanga has seen some exuberant success in the sport, and this is predominantly why he seems the best super-middleweight among all the budding boxers.

Can Edgar Berlanga become a super-middleweight world champion in the future?

With an immaculate track record of 16 wins and 0 losses, ‘The Chosen One’ walks into every fight as a favorite. His insane first-round KO streak is proof of his dynamite-like power.

His prowess is too much to handle for his opponents, for obvious reasons. This makes him an intimidating prospect in the stacked 168-pound division.
