00:00A truck can hit me in my chin, but you're not knocking me, I promise you.
00:02And when it happens?
00:03I promise you.
00:04This is my s**t, that's why I told Turkey this is it.
00:06I told Turkey this is my s**t.
00:07Don't not show that I'm going to take it away from you.
00:09Yo Hamza, man, come on.
00:11I'm a king at that, I'm a king at that.
00:14It's cool.
00:14I told Canelo, you know I told Canelo?
00:16I told Canelo to suck a s**t.
00:18On what?
00:19On a fight?
00:20On what?
00:20What are we betting on?
00:21On a win.
00:22You know I'm coming though, innit?
00:23You know that.
00:24You can see it.
00:25I'm leaving everything in that ring.
00:27Everything.
00:30July 12th, live on DAZN and presented by The Ring Magazine.
00:42Two hard-hitting super middleweights go at it in the main event for WBC number one title
00:50eliminator.
00:51It will be Hamza Shiraz taking on Edgar Berlanga in his hometown.
00:56Live from the Louis Armstrong Stadium.
01:00That fight will be won for the ages.
01:02But today, we get into the face-off.
01:05Hamza, I'll start with you.
01:06Yep.
01:06Just coming off the press conference.
01:09There's a lot of personal jabs thrown before the punches are even flying yet.
01:14You're in Edgar's backyard.
01:15The people obviously on his side throwing jabs at you from the crowd.
01:20How are you feeling right now?
01:22It's a new position I've been in.
01:24I haven't been in this position before.
01:26But I feel like alive.
01:31I've got that fire in me.
01:32You're smiling, Edgar.
01:33What are you smiling about, man?
01:34Is it the fact this is in your hometown?
01:37Is it the fact that trash talk is already starting to come out?
01:40What is it?
01:41I love that.
01:42I love it, man.
01:43I think, you know, he needs that.
01:46You know, I don't want him running around the ring.
01:48You know what I'm saying?
01:49He likes to run around the ring and he's going to try to box.
01:51But now, you know, he sees the fire in me.
01:54You know what I'm saying?
01:55I got a lot of fire in me.
01:56I got a lot of proof.
01:58It's a lot of 12.
01:58You know what I'm saying?
01:59It's a lot, bro.
02:00Are you proving it to yourself?
02:03Are you proving it to everybody?
02:04Or are you proving it to Hamza Shiraz?
02:06To myself.
02:07I don't need to prove nothing to him.
02:08I don't need to prove nothing to nobody, to myself.
02:11I got this far.
02:12Proving to myself, bro.
02:14You know what I'm saying?
02:15Canelo fight came.
02:17He was a thousand and knocked out.
02:19Look what happened.
02:21We took an L, but it's the way we took the L.
02:24We came out 20,000 people against me.
02:2720,000 people after the fight became a fan.
02:30You know what I'm saying?
02:31So...
02:32Hamza says you're a runner.
02:33So you like to run around the ring a lot.
02:35What's your response there?
02:37I don't think I'm known for running around the ring.
02:41Otherwise, I wouldn't have had however many knockouts I've had.
02:43That's the first I've ever been.
02:45He got Andy Lee.
02:47He got Andy Lee in his corner.
02:50I already know the game plan.
02:51I already know their game plan.
02:52I already know their game plan.
02:54What do you think it is?
02:55How much do you want to bet I'll stand in that ring with you?
02:57Oh, we're going to see, bro.
02:58I'll bet you I'll stand in that ring with you.
03:00We're going to see.
03:00Listen, I'm coming to your backyard.
03:02I pray you do.
03:04I'm coming to your backyard.
03:05I can't box.
03:06I pray you do.
03:07I can't box.
03:07I got my...
03:08You got Turkey.
03:09Turkey, that's your papi.
03:11You got Turkey.
03:12Turkey got you like this, brother.
03:13You heard?
03:14You an ambassador.
03:15I got to go in there and prove something.
03:17There's not...
03:18You think...
03:18No, no, I'm coming to your backyard.
03:20This is my s***.
03:21That's what I'm saying.
03:22I told Turkey, this is my s***.
03:24When I said Turkey at the fights, he said,
03:26oh, so you the king?
03:27I said, yes, it's my s***, Turkey.
03:29But you the king too,
03:30because you own all these hotels here.
03:32It's my s***, bro.
03:33I was born, I was raised here, bro.
03:35I'm a big New Yorker, bro.
03:37So you got a lot of fans here, yeah?
03:39But, but, but, but listen.
03:40You, you, Turkey's baby.
03:43That's what you think?
03:44I know.
03:45So if that's the case,
03:46why am I coming to your backyard?
03:47I know.
03:48Because you don't have no choice.
03:49Why is Turkey set up the fight in your backyard?
03:50Because you don't have no choice,
03:51because your papi said,
03:52yo, listen, we got to fight for...
03:53You got to fight Balanga,
03:54but you got to fight Balanga in New York.
03:56If I was that, you'd come to London.
03:58What are you going to tell papi?
03:58If I was that, you'd have come to London.
03:59If I was that...
04:00Don't go to your backyard.
04:01If he would have said you had to fight Shiraz in London,
04:03I would have went on with it.
04:04Bro, we said we'd fight you anywhere.
04:05We're here.
04:06I signed the contract.
04:06We're fighting you in your backyard.
04:08You, you had to take the fight.
04:09Don't show confidence.
04:10Don't show that I'm coming to take it away from you.
04:13He told you, he told you.
04:13Don't not show that I'm going to take it away from you.
04:15Yo, Hamza, man, come on.
04:17You know I'm going to take it away from you.
04:18You know I'm coming from you.
04:19I'm coming for you.
04:20I promise you, on Jesus Christ, on my son,
04:22you're not taking nothing from me.
04:23I'm coming for you.
04:24I promise you.
04:24I'm going to take it.
04:25That's right.
04:25All right, we're going to see.
04:26I'm going to take it.
04:27We're going to see.
04:27Otherwise, I won't be here.
04:28We're going to see.
04:29I don't do half-hearted shit.
04:30I won't be here.
04:31We're going to see.
04:31I won't be here otherwise.
04:32We're going to see.
04:33Trust me, we're going to see.
04:34Trust me, we're going to see.
04:35Trust me, we're going to see.
04:36We're not going to see.
04:37You're going to see.
04:37All right, it's your will against my will.
04:38You're going to see.
04:39It's your will against my will.
04:41It's my will against your will.
04:42It's as simple as that.
04:43Who's going to break first?
04:44You know, it's going to come down to who wants it more.
04:46Yeah, that's...
04:46Me and you in that mid-air ring exchanging.
04:48Yeah, that's...
04:49Well, I'm not taking you lightly.
04:51I know you coming.
04:53You know why?
04:54Because Turkey got a plan for you.
04:57He told you.
04:57There ain't no plan for me.
04:58No, no, he told you.
04:58There ain't no plan for me, bro.
05:00There ain't no plan for me.
05:01But the same goes for you, bro.
05:02The same goes for you.
05:03No, you're going straight to Canelo after this.
05:04The same goes for you.
05:05You're going straight to Canelo.
05:06The same goes for you.
05:06100% you're going straight to...
05:07I'm your Canelo right now.
05:09Oh, you ain't going to...
05:10I'm your Canelo right now.
05:11Have you won a world title?
05:12I'm your Canelo right now.
05:13Have you won a world title?
05:14I'm your Canelo right now.
05:14You haven't. I ain't either.
05:16That's how I know I'm going to be you
05:17because you don't even look at me like that.
05:19Like what?
05:19You see where I'm going?
05:20Like what? I don't. I'm buffed.
05:21I don't get it.
05:21You see where I'm going?
05:22I don't get it.
05:22You don't get it?
05:23I don't get it.
05:24I don't get it.
05:24I think only you get it.
05:25You underestimated me, bro.
05:27No, no, you're underestimating me.
05:28You're already talking about who you want.
05:30Bro, no.
05:31You know you are.
05:31I always do that.
05:40You're not focused on me.
05:41You're not focused on me.
05:42And my balls is on me.
05:44I know I've got to go against you.
05:45You're not focused on me, bro.
05:47I know. Yes, I am.
05:48What you're trying to do is tell yourself you are.
05:50But you know I'm coming.
05:51Munguia got knocked out by four knockouts.
05:55Four knockouts.
05:56Munguia got knocked out.
05:57That's the f*** out by a guy with four knockouts.
05:59But at least when I knock you out,
06:00you can say I've got 19 knockouts.
06:02I can chalk as much shit as I want.
06:03You can say I've got more knockouts than four knockouts.
06:05Now what?
06:05I say when I knock you out,
06:06you can justify it.
06:07No, no.
06:08You're not knocking me out, bro.
06:09I promise you, I got a...
06:10My chin...
06:11Yo, bro.
06:12A truck can hit me in my chin.
06:13Bro, you're not knocking me.
06:14I promise you.
06:15I promise you.
06:15I promise you.
06:16And when it happens?
06:17I promise you.
06:17And when it happens?
06:18I promise you.
06:18I promise you.
06:19And when it happens?
06:19Because I know I'm going to get hit.
06:21I know I'm...
06:21You're going to get...
06:22It's boxed.
06:22I'm going to get hit.
06:23I know I'm going to get hit.
06:25But let's see if you ready to get hit.
06:27You know, see what I was about?
06:28How many licks I took?
06:29What?
06:30How many fight?
06:30How many bangs I took?
06:31Bro, he was tapping you.
06:32Bro, that dude was out of shape, bro.
06:34That dude didn't have no conditioning.
06:35He would have conditioned to be able to stop you, bro.
06:37Yo, yo...
06:38Bro, he was tapping you, bro.
06:39He was tapping you.
06:40You're disillusioned.
06:40Tapping you.
06:41Tapping you.
06:42I'm like, yo, bro, he's going to sit down on his shots.
06:44You was right.
06:44You started...
06:45Oh, you're going to sit down on his shots.
06:46In the later rounds, you started...
06:47He started commanding you.
06:48Listen, I'm going to...
06:49Take your shots.
06:49I'm going to talk to you in the fight.
06:50All right.
06:51I'm going to talk to you.
06:52I'm a king at that.
06:53No, no, I'm a king at that.
06:54It's cool.
06:54I talk...
07:02You say he's going to knock me out for two rounds.
07:04What happened?
07:05I'm talking to him.
07:05But he dropped you.
07:06A lot of times.
07:07Huh?
07:07But he dropped you.
07:08Okay, and it happens, bro.
07:10The best got dropped.
07:11But then if...
07:12But it's not about you getting dropped.
07:14Because that's why I got dropped.
07:15If you're saying...
07:16If that's...
07:16Look at...
07:17I got dropped, and I look right at my corner.
07:19I say, oh, yeah, it's game time.
07:21Oh, yeah.
07:21The fight just started now.
07:22My balls...
07:24I'm right on the table.
07:25Now we're going to fight.
07:25But you didn't stand in the middle with him, though.
07:27The whole fight.
07:28What are you talking about?
07:29You didn't, bro.
07:30You didn't.
07:30Bro, the whole fight.
07:31You didn't, bro.
07:32The whole fight.
07:33What are you talking about?
07:34I think in your head...
07:35What are you watching?
07:36I think in your head, you saw something else.
07:37What are you watching?
07:38You underestimating me, bro.
07:39You underestimating me, bro.
07:41I'm not underestimating me.
07:43Listen, I'm coming to your backyard.
07:44It's all right.
07:45I'm coming to your backyard.
07:46You was forced to do this, bro.
07:47I wasn't forced to do...
07:48I wasn't forced to do...
07:49Because he promised you Canelo next.
07:51Nah, nah, nah.
07:51He promised you Canelo next.
07:52Nah, nah.
07:53Listen, we nearly signed for another fight.
07:54I'm your Canelo.
07:55You say, how?
07:56How are you my Canelo?
07:57I'm your Canelo.
07:58You're not, bro.
07:59Yes, I am.
08:00How much you in the bag?
08:00You ain't my Canelo, bro.
08:02You're not, bro.
08:02How much you in the bag?
08:03Come on, let's be real.
08:03I know you got the bag.
08:04Let's be real, bro.
08:04I know you got the bag.
08:05Let's be real, bro.
08:06I know you got the bag.
08:07You got the bag as well.
08:08No, you got the bag.
08:09You know you got the bag as well.
08:10You got the turkey money.
08:11Where's my RM?
08:12You're the one that ain't got the RM, bro.
08:13You got a bunch of those.
08:14You know I got them.
08:15100,000 on the fight.
08:16On the fight.
08:17On what?
08:17What are we betting on?
08:18On the win.
08:18Hey, let's bet.
08:19On the win.
08:19On the key.
08:20There you go.
08:21On camera.
08:21Let's go.
08:22Yeah?
08:22I like it.
08:23I like the energy.
08:24You both are very intense right now.
08:26You said something earlier about Edgar's energy at the press conference.
08:31You said it was a little nervous energy.
08:32Is that what you're seeing here?
08:33I feel like it's always been him.
08:37It's always been him.
08:38But then I always say, empty cans make the most noise.
08:42I always say it.
08:43And I stick by that.
08:44I stick by it.
08:45All the talkers in my career that I fought, you see what's happened.
08:49You know what it is?
08:51It ignites a fire in me.
08:53If he was there, just didn't say nothing, I'd be like, all right, cool, he'd be going
08:56through the motions.
08:56But this is exciting.
08:58This is what boxing's about.
08:59This is it.
09:01This is it.
09:02You think, you said empty cans make the most noise.
09:04You think his cans are empty?
09:06You think it's empty stuff?
09:07Bro, he knows it.
09:08He knows it.
09:09He's empty.
09:09He knows it.
09:10It's empty.
09:10He knows it.
09:11It's empty.
09:12You know I'm coming, though, innit?
09:13You know that.
09:14You can see it.
09:16Come on, bro.
09:16You can see it.
09:17You know I'm coming.
09:18Coming with everything.
09:20I'm leaving everything in that ring.
09:22Everything.
09:26Edgar, your intensity has switched here.
09:30It was a lot of joking and talking at the press conference.
09:32It's gotten a lot more serious now.
09:35Is that something that, you know, mind games, potentially, or is that just you telling him
09:41straight up this is what it's going to be?
09:43You know.
09:45You know.
09:50You know.
09:50That's all for the cameras.
09:54You know, certain s**t you can do for the cameras, but I tell you.
09:58Bro, you didn't turn up gunshots earlier for the camera.
10:01I do the camera.
10:02What happened?
10:03What happened?
10:04But listen, let me tell you something, right?
10:06You got guys that do s**t for the cameras, right?
10:09And then you go fight night, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight night, come.
10:14I would do it my whole career.
10:15I'm not talking about you.
10:16Be quiet.
10:17We're talking about you then?
10:18I'm not talking about you.
10:18I'm talking about people that, that, that do s**t cameras and they go to fight and then
10:22s**t it better.
10:23You know what I'm saying?
10:24They, you know, me, I talk my s**t because now I got to, now I know I got to back it up.
10:30You know what I'm saying?
10:31He, he talked, he didn't walk the walk.
10:32He done good.
10:33He done good.
10:34I'm not taking it away from him, but the perception he's got in his head of the fight he had, I don't,
10:38I didn't see that fight.
10:39Explain that.
10:40He said he stood toe to toe with him.
10:42Everybody knows that, bro.
10:44You know, everybody, everyone's saying that you didn't.
10:46You're an amateur, bro.
10:48Everybody's saying that you didn't.
10:48Nobody said nothing.
10:50Nobody said nothing.
10:51Walk around New York right now and ask about that fight.
10:54What are they going to say?
10:55I had, I had, I had the whole block, I had blocks shut down over here.
10:58But it all comes down to winning and did you win?
11:00You heard?
11:00It all comes down to winning and did you win?
11:04All right, but guess what?
11:05That's the reality of it.
11:06All right.
11:07And I've accepted that.
11:08Okay, okay.
11:09And look at Arturo Gatti and Ward.
11:14So you think your fight was like that?
11:15Look at Arturo Gatti and Ward.
11:16I'm not saying that, but when I'm saying that caliber.
11:18Nobody talks about the winner or the loser.
11:20They talk about the war that they had.
11:22Look at William Scope.
11:25That's what William Scope ran the whole fight.
11:28Ran.
11:29Charlo ran.
11:30You crazy.
11:31I stood there at 50%, bro.
11:34You know what I'm saying?
11:35At 50%.
11:36At 50%.
11:37I don't use that as an excuse.
11:38I never went after the fight.
11:39Yo, I was injured.
11:40This, that, nah.

11:44I don't know if you were embellishing, but it sounded like you were dead serious about
11:47a first round knockout.
11:48Yeah, if you come to fight, you're going to see.
11:50It's different.
11:51It's different.
11:51I'm telling you, bro, it's different.
11:52No, you don't believe that.
11:53Come on.
11:53Bro, I'm telling you, it's different, bro.

12:13I don't know what he was doing.
12:14You know what I'm saying?
12:15And he still hurt you and everything.
12:16You got hurt by ammo.
