Former pound-for-pound leader and four-division world champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez shared what he told Edgar Berlanga during their fight.
Alvarez revealed in an interview with the YouTube channel iFL TV:
I say to him(Edgar Berlanga) in the 9th round.. ‘You hit like my son’….he thinks he hits harder.
