01:45Yeah. Yeah. So, listen. Uh you
01:48are uh getting in the ring here
01:50Saturday night. Big event. You
01:52know, my favorite part of it is
01:54is how much you're going to
01:56make. I mean, I mean, let's get
01:58down to business, bro. Like,
01:59that's a lot of money. It's uh
02:01I mean, it's a better invite
02:03you've had. No, I mean, 100%.
02:05100% more money. Like, that's
02:07what it's about. That you've
02:08gotten to this level. Yeah. And
02:09you're finally getting that
02:10stack. Yeah. Like, I, if I were
02:13you, I'd be tripping. I'd be
02:14like, this is what's up. Yeah.
02:15Nah, I mean, you know, it's not,
02:17it's not, you know, the money's,
02:18I know the money's always going
02:19to be there. You know, money,
02:21money's just a tool. You know,
02:22it's not something that
02:23control. Maybe not like this.
02:26If you win this fight, you can
02:27make even more money. That's
02:28what I'm saying, but that's
02:29where the bag. That'd be like a
02:30river. No, that's where the
02:31real bag is at. That's why I'm
02:32going to be wiping my ass for
02:33$100 bills, you know? This is
02:34the first step bag. Of course.
02:36Yeah, this is the first step.
02:37It's like the break, the break
02:38the door down and go through the
02:39door, collect your bag, but the
02:41bag is outside that door. What
02:42did you think when that, when
02:43you got the, the fight and, and
02:45they were like, listen, you're
02:46going to fight Alvarez. Like, I
02:48listen, I know you're badass. I
02:50know you believe in yourself. I
02:52know you talk. I know you fight.
02:54I know you knock guys out, but
02:56at some level, like, listen, I've
02:58had some big gigs. Like I got, I
03:00got called on David Letterman,
03:01you know, Letterman, New York.
03:02So Letterman calls me up and
03:03says, come do my show. And I
03:05like, I like went to the
03:06bathroom in my pants. When you
03:08get that call, you trip out.
03:09What did you do when you got
03:11that call that you, you were
03:12going to fight Canelo? I mean,
03:13let's face facts. That's a big
03:14call. Yeah. Um, you want me to
03:16be honest? Yeah. I got baptized.
03:18Oh, right. And I baptized. Yeah.
03:21I got baptized right there. I
03:22already know. I say, yeah, this
03:23is, this is all God's plan, man.
03:25And I, I said, I'm going to
03:26change my life. I said, like, I
03:28got this opportunity. God
03:30presented, presented it to me.
03:32So I'm going to change my life
03:33and I got baptized. So I think
03:36most people don't know you
03:38enough about who you fought and
03:40who you've kicked their ass
03:41because you've been knocking
03:42guys out left and right. Yeah.
03:43But they don't know. They're
03:45like, who's this Berlanga guy
03:47fighting Canelo Alvarez? Uh,
03:49Saturday nights, you're real
03:51coming out party. This is the
03:53biggest of big time fights on
03:55pay-per-view on prime video.
03:57And this is big money fights, a
03:59big audience, you know,
04:00millions of people that are
04:01tuning in to watch you for the
04:02first time that have never heard
04:04of you. So this is your, this is
04:06your showing. This is your
04:07unveiling. So if God has a plan
04:09for you, Saturday night is the
04:11plan. A thousand percent, man.
04:13We didn't come this far, you
04:14know, and one thing for sure,
04:16right. I'm not supposed to be
04:17here. You know, people, people
04:19are, you know, they baptized
04:20me left and right, whether it's
04:21bad or good, but they bashed me
04:23on, on, on, on socials and stuff.
04:25You know what? But I think that
04:27they were, I look at it. I'm
04:28like, I don't give a, I don't,
04:29I don't care. You know why I
04:30could curse or no, I can't go.
04:32Oh, it's not, it's not good for
04:33my future. I love cursing.
04:37Believe me. I did the dirtiest
04:38show ever. I did the dirtiest
04:40show ever. I did the dirtiest
04:41show ever. My show was so dirty.
04:43They made me go clean. Maybe you
04:45start wearing suits. They put me
04:46on TV. They made me tuck in my
04:48shirt. And this is an untucked
04:50shirt. They yelled at me today
04:52to tuck it in. They just wanted
04:53to look and see if I had gained
04:55any weight. I'm as pretty as a
04:56girl. You can feel it. But
04:57listen, when you get in there
04:59with this, let's just face it.
05:01He's, he's insanely talented.
05:03I've seen, I've seen a fight 30
05:05times. He means business. What's
05:07your plan at the very least in
05:09the back of your head, not with
05:10trainers telling you what to do
05:12your, your corner telling you
05:14what to do. Your PR people
05:17telling you what to do. The
05:19media telling you what to do.
05:20Fans telling you what to do when
05:22you're going to bed at night
05:23closing your eyes. What are you
05:25planning on doing? Like how this
05:27thing develops? I want to go in
05:29early. I want to do this. What
05:30do I want to do in the next
05:31round? What do I want to do in
05:32the middle rounds? How long do I
05:33want this to go? What have you
05:34been dreaming about? I know you
05:37said knocking him out. Yeah,
05:39that for sure. But you said a
05:41lot there, but you know what's
05:42on my mind? I mean, no, no, but
05:44check it. You feel me? No, no,
05:45but I'm at the, I'm at the, I'm
05:47at the hit it, nip it on the
05:48butt. I gotta be great for 36
05:50minutes. I gotta be around. I
05:52gotta be great for 36 minutes.
05:54You know what's that? 36 minutes
05:55is exactly what it is. If it
05:57goes that long, 12 rounds, I
05:59gotta be great for 36 minutes.
06:01That's all that's on my mind. I
06:02gotta be great from round one
06:05to round 12. Has your training
06:07led you to that 36 minute peak?
06:09Like you got no problem. Three,
06:11three per and let's dance. I
06:12mean, I went to the mountains. I
06:15went to Colorado Boulder, you
06:17know, 8000 up there. It's really
06:19thin air. The noodles cook
06:20differently. Tennis balls don't
06:21bounce. I drank six beers. I
06:23thought I drank 20. Yeah, yeah,
06:25for sure, man. So, you know, if
06:27we were sparring 12 rounds out
06:28there, 13 rounds coming out
06:30here, you know, it's like
06:31equivalent to spawn 20 rounds.
06:33Do you know anyone that you've
06:36fought? I'm telling you like I
06:39noticed cat. I've seen him
06:40fight. I've been at all his
06:41fights. My man, he punches hard
06:44like you, your body has got to
06:46be ready for the type of body
06:48blows that this guy throws. He
06:49throws more dangerous body than
06:51he does up top. He he beat you
06:53in the body so bad that you'll
06:55wish your your mommy was in the
06:57ring with you. Are you have you
06:58prepared for this kind of
06:59assault from him because he's
07:00going to go at it with you and
07:01obviously he knows how to win
07:02these belts. He's won all these
07:04titles. We prepare for
07:05everything, man. You know, I'm
07:06ready. I'm prepared to take a
07:08shot but I'm prepared to also
07:10give him a shot because we got
07:11to we got to earn our respect in
07:13the ring. Big hands. I hit hard
07:15bro. No, I hit very hard. I
07:17know you do. No, I hit very
07:19hard. You hit so hard. I I feel
07:21it right now. I don't hit. I
07:23don't hit like triple G. I don't
07:25hit like those guys, bro. I've
07:27been, I've been in the most
07:28dangerous guy he's fought. A
07:30thousand percent. That's
07:31beautiful, bro. A thousand
07:32percent. I'm pulling for you.
07:34Like, I think it, I think it'd
07:35be, you know, it would be
07:37absolutely whacked. Like, I've
07:41been to fights for 35 years.
07:43I've been to fights that have
07:44ever happened in Las Vegas. All
07:46of them. And it would be whack
07:47if you knocked him out. If you
07:49knock out Canelo Alvarez, I
07:50know you, I know you think
07:51you're going to and you, and
07:52you, you've said you're going
07:53to, I've heard you say you're
07:54going to kill him. Uh, I've,
07:55I've seen all the press
07:56conferences, but if you do it,
07:57like, I'm telling you, cause
07:58I'll be sitting in front row. I
08:00will jump through the roof of
08:02the T-Mobile arena and I will
08:04fly to the moon like a rocket.
08:06If you knock him out, this place
08:08will jump. It will, the roof
08:09will come off if you knock him
08:11out. Don't blink Saturday night.
08:12Don't blink and get your popcorn
08:13ready. Listen, I love popcorn,
08:15dude. I eat more popcorn at
08:16mafia. Tell him who eats more
08:17popcorn than me. No one. I eat
08:20more popcorn. I eat a lot more
08:22bread and butter every night. I
08:23like a lot of butter too, but
08:24like, you know, when I'm 59
08:25son, everything I eat, I get
08:27better, but I play basketball.
08:29So how tall are you now? I'm

08:35two 40. We will both kick your
08:36ass on a basketball court, but
08:38you will knock us out in the
08:39ring. You got your thing. I
08:40think in the basketball, but I

08:42have to watch your weight. I
08:43eat everything. I see last night

09:09Carver high. You see this guy?
09:11He means business over here in
09:13Cincinnati. He is not afraid of
09:15Pinallo Alvarez. He told me he
09:18was going to tell him.
