Edgar Berlanga Jr. is showing a different side of himself outside the ring as he promotes his first song, "Baby Mama," while also getting ready for a major fight at Madison Square Garden. The Brooklyn-born boxer discussed both parts of his career in an interview with Carl Lamarre, highlighting a busy stretch that mixes music with fight preparation.
The conversation centers on Berlanga's debut single, which arrived last month and marks his first attempt at releasing music. For an athlete best known for his power and presence in boxing, the song adds a new dimension to his public profile and places him among sports figures exploring creative work beyond competition.
At the same time, boxing remains the main event. Berlanga is preparing for an upcoming bout at MSG on Sunday, July 26, a high-visibility setting for any fighter and an especially meaningful stage for someone with deep ties to Brooklyn and the New York area.
Taken together, the interview presents Berlanga at a crossroads of sport and entertainment, with attention on both his first musical release and his next appearance in the ring. As fight night approaches, the combination of a new single and a Madison Square Garden matchup keeps the spotlight firmly on him.
