Edgar Berlanga is back ... the first-round knockout king from Brooklyn is returning to the ring after tearing his bicep last year, and Fat Joe's walking him to the squared circle next Saturday at Madison Square Garden.
The 24-year-old power puncher told TMZ Sports headlining in his hometown of New York, after rehabbing to come back from a torn left biceps injury, feels surreal.
"It still feels fake," Edgar told us. "I still feel like I'm the undercard of another fighter, but I'm a happy man."
And, he won't just have Joe -- a NYC legend -- by his side as he makes his way to the ring .
