gentlemen dating back to 2020 horse and
0:05
that's when we first talked to this
0:07
young man mhm he was undefeated then mhm
0:10
but the world hadn't really fully
0:12
embraced him
0:14
yet and he said that in that clip and it
0:17
stood out to me when he talked about
0:19
there's a lot of boxes I don't even
0:20
think he remember saying this to us I
0:25
don't what did I say sway he said but
0:28
it's hard work mhm he talked about the
0:31
concept of hard work and how that um can
0:34
pay off and at that time man horse we
0:37
just liked him because he hit hard yes
0:41
right and you can see he had that Spirit
0:43
of just like your classic boxer he walks
0:45
in the ring you know and with his skill
0:47
people see his strength but off often
0:50
miss they don't often see the skill set
0:53
right four years later he's fighting
0:55
Canelo Alvarez and horse when you saw
0:59
that he got to fight what did you think
1:01

1:07

1:10
straight up it down I said yo I got
1:12
belinga I said yo the only thing that
1:13
can stop belinga from winning this fight
1:16
is discipline in the lights in the shiny
1:18
lights right there cuz he never been on
1:19
the stage this big yeah but otherwise it
1:21
wasn't nothing stopping him but him but
1:23
him but listen we saw you fight this

3:08
a little cheesy you know what I'm saying
3:09
so I had to keep it within myself and
3:11
then after the fight I was going to tell
3:12
him but it was somebody that we looked
3:14
up to for years man yeah man I we were
3:17
at the press conference that y'all did
3:18
in Time Square some weeks back and
3:21
that's when you told told the story
3:22
about dreaming of this day and Canelo
3:24

thing that happened to him with Floyd
4:22

7:52
him you know what I'm saying and you
7:54
know we made history bro over 650,000
7:57
pay-per-view BS
8:01
I think it was 750 yeah they saying it's
8:04
like I think like a $22 million gate you
8:06
know and I'm I'm up there with Floyd you
8:08
know like my fight with him and it's a
8:11
blessing bro for my first fight to be
8:13
pay-per-view and you know I'm already
8:14
making history so they they they he
8:17
knows that I'm going to be the face of
8:18
boxing he knows that the 168 division is
8:20
going to be mine you know what I'm
8:22
saying and I need all those titles and I
8:23
want to be Undisputed edar belinga right
8:26
here ladies and gentlemen Puerto Rican
8:28
royalty
8:30
let me ask you a question what what was
8:31
the game plan coming in for Canelo what
8:33
was the game I know the game plan wasn't
8:35
be on the ropes rope or dope that wasn't
8:36
in your game plan that was something
8:37
that you just created going in the fight
8:39
because I know that fighting honestly
8:41
when I seen the fight when you got when
8:43
you got dropped you got caught with a
8:45
punch I don't even think you got hurt no
8:46
it was it was a flash it was but I'm
8:48
saying to myself you kept droing your
8:51
right hand yeah so once you dropped your
8:52
right hand and got caught with that and
8:53
got mad and got up it seemed like you
8:55
went from a game plan to like yo I'm
8:58
Puerto Rican I ain't getting knocked out
9:00
I ain't getting disrespected we going to
9:01
fight and it became into a street fight
9:03
that's why it started becoming like
9:04
dirty tactics they say hitting in the
9:05
back and all that was that the game plan
9:07
or that something that you made up yeah
9:08
so so this the left hook right that he
9:10
hit me with I'm not going to lie I
9:11
didn't see that [Â __Â ] and not only that I
9:15
banged my gloves because we practiced
9:17
that to keep my right hand on my chin
9:19
the whole camp like mhm and for me to
9:22
and I got hit with the punch that I was
9:24
practicing the whole camp that was a
9:26
first hook you know what I'm saying so I
9:27
was like I was just upset I was like
9:29
damn like oh I got hit with that shot
9:31
that he threw and I was just studying
9:33
that fight like the whole week you know
9:34
what I'm saying like just watching his
9:35
hook so you know his mistakes that
9:37
happen in boxing but then um you know I
9:40
felt like when I got in there right and
9:42
then you know I got up and I already
9:44
know I said I could take his best I took
9:45
his best shot yeah I saying he he ain't
9:47
doing nothing after this you knew that
9:48
huh yeah so but I I started noticing
9:51
that he was getting frustrated you know
9:53
what I'm saying like he started doing
9:54
weird like during the fight you see he
9:55
tried to he was playing with his hands
9:58
that's all being
10:00
frustrated you know you never see I took
10:01
can of his element he started like
10:03
walking me try to like fight me South uh
10:06
like like Floyd you know with the with
10:07
the you know what I'm saying like stuff
10:09
you never seen him do and I was like
10:11
damn like if I had a longer Camp you
10:14
know obviously cuz we I I cot a short
10:15
orders for this fight you know what I'm
10:16
saying like when we got signed obviously
10:18
I was training but I wasn't at camp but
10:20
if we had a real solid camp like a 10we
10:22
camp 12we Camp it'll be it would have
10:24
been a different a different fight you
10:26
know what I'm saying but he I know like
10:29
first of all I know that we could we
10:30
could get that rematch you know what I'm
10:31

18:12
own thing so yeah so right now you know
18:13
I'm with matx room but I got one fight
18:15
optional you know what I'm saying where
18:17
you know if we want we could be you know
18:18
free agents or if I want I could do I
18:21
got one more fight with them you know
18:22
what I'm saying but it's up in the air
18:24
for me right now who's on your Hit List
18:25
you have Hae mugia um I got like I like
18:29
I want big fights you know what I'm
18:30
saying so we like like Jamal Charlo okay
18:33
you know we got him and then we got
18:34
mongia I think mongia you know he's
18:36
Mexican he got a country behind him so
18:38
that's that's a big big big big big
18:40
Pay-Per-View fight right now so is that
18:41
something we could look for in um June
18:43
2025th 2025 in in um Madison Square
18:47
Garden 100% that's dope I think we
18:49
should do that in Madison Square Garden
18:51
me and M should be in Madison Square
18:52
Garden that be a great fight right there
18:54
have for Puerto Rican Day Parade
18:55
weekends and stuff like that think that
18:56
would be great tight so those fights are
18:58
more important to you than Caleb plint
19:01
uh yeah like right now for real for real
19:03
you know Caleb was on the radar but
19:04
right now we want I want like a m okay
19:07
you know what I'm saying I want a right
19:08
now I think that fight right there is
19:11
going is set the ball high too you know
19:12
what I'm saying with pay-per-view
19:13
numbers you know gate ticket sales and
19:15
stuff you know he's a big drill in
19:17
Mexico you know you know how you see me
19:19
and Canelo we just made we just did
19:20
history so you know me and me and M will
19:23
be the same thing wow what I'm saying
19:25
and then after that you know we we we
19:27
beat him I want want that rematch you
19:29
know want that rematch you think he'll
19:30
give it to you um I wouldn't if I was I
19:34
know I know yeah um but I think that uh
19:36
you know we had a great fight I feel
19:38
like you know he got a lot of respect
19:39
for me now you know um he's seen the
19:42
numbers we did you know it was a great
19:43
fight you know from round one to round
19:45
12 and uh I I truly believe I think
19:48
he'll give me another shot you know I
19:49
think that you know I'll probably have
19:51
to go out there and just capture a world
19:52
title you know if if like the WBO you
19:55
know you know he releases WBO WB or
19:57
something and I grab title I think we
19:59
can make it happen I believe in you
20:01
brother edar Binga is here um you fought
20:05
Canelo my good friend my brother Terence
20:08
Crawford wants to fight Canelo yeah just
20:11
from your expert opinion knowing how
20:13
Canelo fights what he's like in the ring
20:15
I know you haven't been in the ring with
20:16
Terence but what do you think of that
20:18
fight I truly believe you know that you
20:20
know anything can happen in boxing you
20:22
know what I'm saying and Terence
20:23
Crawford is a legend he's great he's a
20:25
great Fighter the only the only thing I
20:27
see that that uh that I favor Canelo is
20:30
that you know his his his weight yeah
20:32
and that he's more bigger you know what
20:33
I'm saying that's the only that's the
20:35
only thing but as far as skill set wise
20:37
IQ I feel like Crawford can match
20:39
anybody and probably do way better you
20:41
know what I'm saying but you know
20:43
Crawford is a legend bro you know um and
20:46
like I said you can't you can't you
20:48
can't count them out you know what I'm
20:49
saying as far as you know just the
20:51
weight the weight you know cuz that's
20:52
why like what Canelo said you know there
20:54
that's why they have weight categories
20:55
in boxing you know what I'm saying right
20:57
now I can't go up the the heavyweight
20:59
and fight Anthony Joshua you know what
21:00
I'm saying that guy's big you know that
21:02
power was different
21:04
even you like to but you get what I'm
21:07
saying like that's why you know but um
21:10
if [Â __Â ] if if
21:11
cord yeah I think I think it could be
21:13
like a good solid 210 I call out Anthony
21:16
Joshua why not at 210 you can do that
21:18
yeah yeah right what can you talk about
21:21
because now you're a hero you know this
21:23
right th% you a hero bro and to a lot of
21:27

21:28
