“I’m always an optimist. For me, when that fight with AJ is a fight that can be made in two minutes in a room, I am always hopeful. But Tyson Fury’s earned the right to make his own decisions. If he’s done, he’s done. If not, then we make the biggest fight in the history of the sport. Only time will tell.
After a slow and tense opening round, Alvarez began to go on the assault by cutting off the ring and chopping away at Berlanga with power punches. A beautiful left hook connected in Round 3 while Berlanga’s back was to the ropes as Alvarez scored first blood with a beautiful knockdown.
