Edgar Berlanga claims Zuffa Boxing deal exceeds Canelo Alvarez earnings

Super middleweight boxer Edgar Berlanga has stated that his multi-fight agreement with Zuffa Boxing is more lucrative than his high-profile September 2024 bout against Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez. While exact financial terms have not been officially confirmed, industry rumors suggest his Zuffa contract may exceed $10 million.

Berlanga, a Brooklyn native with a professional record of 24 wins and two losses, made his Zuffa debut at Madison Square Garden against Steven Butler. He secured a seventh-round stoppage victory following a second-round knockdown. The move highlights the significant financial investments being made by Zuffa Boxing, led by Dana White, to attract top-tier talent to the new promotional outfit.
