Hamzah Sheeraz demolished Edgar Berlanga in the main event of last night's Ring card at the Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, New York. Berlanga talked a lot of trash building up to the fight, however, it was Sheeraz who did the talking with his fists inside the ring.

He dropped Berlanga twice in the fourth round with some spectacular combinations before being saved by the bell. While Berlanga showed heart and got back up, he was stopped right at the start of the fifth.

Sheeraz is now 22-0-1 with 18 KO wins. Berlanga, who was stopped for the first time in his career, is now 23-2-0. His other loss came against Canelo Alvarez via unanimous decision in 2024.

Leading up to the fight, Berlanga was also involved in verbal altercations with Oscar De La Hoya, throwing women's lingerie, money and even a wig at him while calling him a stripper. And after the fight De La Hoya was quick to respond with a brutal jab on social media.

Sheeraz congratulations. Bumlanga, oh my god, you got knocked out! Oh, something Canelo Alveroids couldn't do.
