Is Edgar Berlanga's relationship drama affecting his boxing career?

Former WBO NABO super middleweight champion Edgar Berlanga has the biggest fight of his career ahead of him, as he looks to dethrone former undisputed super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez. While the Mexican superstar is well known to boxing fans across the globe, ‘The Chosen One’ is only known to the more hardcore boxing fans. 

But worry not because we are here to fix that. Before Berlanga locks horns with Canelo in a bid to snatch the latter’s WBA, WBC, and WBO titles in his first-ever major title fight on September 14th at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, here’s everything you need to know about the 27-year-old’s love life and ex-girlfriend Genesis Calderon, who is also the mother of Berlanga’s only son.

Genesis Calderon is the former partner of professional boxer Edgar Berlanga, who is widely known for her entrepreneurial ventures and social media presence. The duo even have a son together, Chosen Berlanga, whose age remains private. The 27-year-old is a successful businesswoman, running Gens Brow Lab, an eyebrow-focused beauty business, and has also partnered with the popular fashion brand, Fashion Nova. However, her business enterprise doesn’t end there. She also owns Chosen Alias, a fitness clothing brand that she regularly promotes on her Instagram account, genesisscalderonn.

With over 220,000 followers on Instagram, Calderon has built a strong online presence by sharing her lifestyle, fashion choices, and business endeavors. Her journey as a social media influencer began in August 2021, with her first post featuring her in a gray unitard. Since then, her account has grown rapidly, showcasing a mix of chic outfits and glimpses into her professional life.

In April 2024, she was featured on the song ‘Enough (Miami)’ by Cardi B in one of her videos, adding another layer of pop culture appeal to her content. While Calderon’s career in the beauty and fitness industry continues to rise, her role as a mother and former partner of Edgar Berlanga remains a point of public interest.

The relationship status of the Brooklyn, New York-born boxer is currently unclear. However, he does often feature in her sports apparel brand – Chosen’s advertisements on social media. It’s possible that Edgar Berlanga is single, or has opted to keep his love life private and away from the limelight that comes hand-in-hand with being a boxing star. This is especially evident since he is about to square off against Canelo Alvarez.

This fight will not only bring his name into the limelight but also of the people closest to him. Regardless, none of his social media activity or information available publicly indicates the 27-year-old professional boxer is in a romantic relationship currently. However, despite his separation from ex-partner Calderon, the duo has been spotted together on social media many times. 

That said, it appears Edgar Berlanga is currently a bachelor as he heads into the title fight against Canelo Alvarez. Perhaps a win in the upcoming fight may propel him higher into stardom, which may reveal further details about his life.
