"Damn, What a Performance" - Ryan Garcia and the Boxing World Stunned as Hamzah Sheeraz Delivers Vicious KO over Edgar Berlanga

NEW YORK, QUEENS, JUL 13 – Hamzah Sheeraz improved his undefeated record to 22-0 with 18 knockouts after a dominant fifth-round stoppage of Edgar Berlanga, boosting hopes for a future fight with Canelo Alvarez.

  • On July 12 at Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, British boxer Hamzah Sheeraz scored a dominant fifth-round KO over Edgar Berlanga, who was taken to hospital in an ambulance afterward.
  • Sheeraz's dominant win over Berlanga in New York elevated his record to 22-0 and marked his move to super middleweight, signaling his rise as a top contender.
  • In round five, Sheeraz scored a knockdown with a right-left combo, leading the referee to stop the fight after Berlanga was floored twice in round four.
  • Following the stoppage, promoter Turki Alalshikh discussed a potential 2026 clash with Canelo, while Ryan Garcia praised Sheeraz’s performance as 'damn good.'
  • In the wider boxing community, fans widely demand a showdown between Sheeraz and David Benavidez, though many consider a Canelo Alvarez clash in 2026 still too early for the rising contender.
