Canelo knocked out Berlanga in the third round, within just two minutes, in which many hailed as a decisive victory. However, Berlanga’s comments at the post-fight press conference have sparked controversy and led to the WBO stepping in to take a closer look.

Berlanga, visibly upset, revealed that there was a crucial aspect of the fight that put him at a disadvantage. “It was unfair for me,” Berlanga stated, although he did not provide specifics on what exactly caused the imbalance. His cryptic remark has led to widespread speculation within the boxing community, with fans and analysts questioning whether external factors affected the fight’s outcome.

The WBO’s decision to review the bout is unusual, but the governing body has stated that they take any claims of unfairness seriously. A spokesperson for the WBO commented, “We are committed to ensuring fairness in all our sanctioned matches, and Berlanga’s concerns will be thoroughly investigated.”

As the investigation unfolds, the public remains divided. Some believe that Berlanga’s claims are justified, while others argue that Álvarez’s knockout was legitimate, and any review would only tarnish the sport’s reputation. Canelo has yet to comment on the matter, leaving the boxing world on edge as the WBO begins its investigation.

The outcome of this review could have lasting implications for both fighters’ careers, and it is clear that this controversy is far from over.
