Then the following week, on June 9th, The Real Deal Boxing heads to Kings Theater in Brooklyn, New York for a Puerto Rican Day Parade Weekend event featuring a card that is literally a who’s who of New York based Puerto Rican prospects headlined by The Real Deal Boxing’s Edgar Berlanga (7-0, 7 KOs).The young and flashy power puncher is fast becoming a legitimate star in New York’s Puerto Rican community, stopping every opponent of his career in the first round. Berlanga is looking to continue his knockout streak on the celebratory occasion in front of his growing fan base.
