Why would anyone be excited for this fight?

It’s going to be a beat down.

maybe because Berlanga might be crazy enough to try to bring the fight to Canelo. Seems crazy enough to try. Might make for an exciting fight, who knows. The undercard is pretty solid too. U dont usually have that on a Canelo fight card. the 4 main card fights pretty much Tops the UFC card tbh.
