Stage Front, the ticketing partner of Matchroom Boxing, is enthusiastically backing Edgar Berlanga in his upcoming clash with Jason Quigley. The much-anticipated bout will take place on the stage of The Theater at Madison Square Garden, New York, on the evening of Saturday, June 24.
As he prepares to step into the ring under the banner of Matchroom Boxing for the very first time, Edgar Berlanga (20-0, 16 KOs) will be testing his remarkable track record. His February signing of a multi-fight contract with Eddie Hearn has already stirred the pot. But who is he facing? None other than the spirited Irishman, Jason Quigley (20-2, 14 KOs).
Berlanga has emerged as a tour de force in the boxing landscape with his blistering speed and hard punches. This has manifested in a spectacular streak of 16 first-round KOs spanning from his June 2016 debut until December 2020. His first professional accolade, the vacant WBO NABO Super-Middleweight title, was clinched following his victory over Marcelo Coceres in Las Vegas in October 2021.
At just 26 years old, this Brooklyn native has won the hearts of New Yorkers, particularly after his performances at the Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden. The previous fights against Steve Rolls and Alexis Angulo saw a fervent crowd of locals and Puerto Rican fans rally behind him. During these adrenaline-charged evenings in March and June, Berlanga defended his WBO NABO title with unanimous decision wins in ten-round bouts, cementing his esteemed spot in the global rankings.
As he gears up for another contest, does it not beg the question – can he continue his extraordinary performance and uphold his unblemished track record?
