Edgar “Chosen One” Berlanga. 

“Chosen One” has only one loss in his career. The culprit responsible for tarnishing his record was Saúl “Canelo” Alvarez; they faced each other in September last year, the fight went to 12 rounds, and the Mexican won by unanimous decision. 

Earlier this year, Sheeraz faced Jonathan Gonzalez, but the fight was short-lived as the New Yorker knocked out his opponent in the first round. 

Of his 18 KOs, 17 have been in the first round.

Hamzah Sheeraz. 

The Briton remains undefeated. His most important fight to date was against Carlos Adame. 

In February of this year, Sheeraz faced Adames for the WBC middleweight world championship. After 12 intense rounds, the judges ruled that, due to the closeness of the fight, it would end in a draw. Carlos Adames retained his belt. 

Hazam has been WBC champion twice. From 2022 to 2024, he was the silver middleweight champion, and in July 2022, he knocked out Jez Smith and won the WBC international middleweight silver title. 

Beranga has a record of 23-1 with 18 KOs. 

Sheeraz has a record of 21-0-1 with 17 KOs.
