Edgar Berlanga faces Hamzah Sheeraz in a 168-lb title eliminator, Shakur Stevenson defends his WBC lightweight title against William Zepeda, light heavyweight contender David Morrell fights Imam Khataev, and WBC 140-lb champ Alberto Puello battles Subriel Matias on a stacked DAZN PPV card on July 12th in New York City. The PPV is priced at $59.99 in the US / £24.99 in the UK
The night begins at 5pm ET / 2pm PT / 10pm BST, with Stevenson vs William Zepeda ringwalks likely at 9:50pm ET / 9:50 PT / 2.50am BST (Sunday) live in DAZN.
This is a Ring Magazine card. The shocker for this card is #6 Edgar Berlanga (23-1, 18 KOs) fighting Hamzah Sheeraz (21-0-1, 17 KOs) in a WBC super middleweight title eliminator to determine a mandatory for champion Canelo Alvarez.
Sheeraz has never fought at 168, and looked hellishly bad in his controversial 12-round draw against WBC 160-lb champion Carlos Adames on February 22nd. Berlanga was beaten by Canelo last September by a one-sided 12-round decision, and he would be getting a quick rematch with the Mexican star by beating Sheeraz. The WBC title eliminator should involve contenders ranked in the top five, which would exclude Berlanga.
With the event being staged in New York City, it makes sense to have the Brooklyn native Berlanga in the headliner spot. Talent and achievement-wise, Berlanga should be near the bottom because he’s done nothing in his career. Edgar will bring in his fans.
Morrell (11-1, 9 KOs) is fighting 2020 Russian Olympian Khataev (10-0, 9 KOs). This should be an interesting one to see where the former two-division world champion Morrell is at after his loss to David Benavidez on February 1st.
