Caleb Plant is going to K.O Benavidez

I really hope he does.

Benavidez downfall might just be underestimating Plant's power and gets caught with something not looking. When Benavidez is throwing his combinations and leaves himself open. But he is very strong mentally and physically big, Heredia has him in career best shape and that conditioning program is bad ass, think Marquez Manny, its going to take a lot to keep David down, not saying Plant cant do it I think its Plants only way of winning because if he cant stop David the pressure will get him in the end.

Plant unquestionably will outbox him for large spells but can he maintain it over 12 rounds is the question and I wouldn't at all be surprised if he dropped Benavidez as his footwork is atrocious. He has severe tendencies in his footwork and constantly brings his feet together and crosses them so I wouldn't at all be surprised if Plant sat him down catching him inbetween but I would be surprised if he stopped Benavidez. He is constantly moving his opposing foot first in the direction he wants to be moving in, a big no-no. He may well win but I'll forever maintain his fathers a useless trainer who doesn't teach footwork. A lot bigger really he is a damn CW milking a flawed system, he's in-shape and can take a shot. I don't see him getting stopped for those reasons. He cuts an obscene amount of weight and even with a week to go he was looking like a duppy. He is so drawn he looks like how Chavez Jr used to look on the scales. This is brains vs brawn.

Interesting take. I’m just glad we’re getting match up, I can see so many possibilities with this one but I’m just gonna watch and let it all unfold. Both might hit the deck I’m thinking.

I wouldn't be surprised David is so KO hungry he just may run into a shot and that will be it. Similar to how Rolly lost to Tank. So damned eager for the KO. Just sit back and wait....should be available after 5 rds.

​​​​​​Bivol has skils but the worst Canelo versión is in 175, thats a very Big division for him and Bivol was clearly way bigger than him the Best canelo is the 160-168 versión, specially in 168. So, thats not a shame L. Plant power is underrated, You Will see And Benavidez has a Lot of holes in his defense I agree there is no shame in losing to a World Champion fighting at a weight class above. However Bivol is physically smaller than Kovalev, Smith, Saunders, and Plant, not that it takes anything away from Canelo's wins over the fighters I just listed. I just do not agree with using the size discrepancy as an argument. The better man just won that night. {"alt":"Click image for larger version Name:\t1395790809.jpg?w=704.jpg Views:\t0 Size:\t179.6 KB ID:\t31784465","data-align":"none","data-attachmentid":"31784465","data-size":"custom","height":"200","title":"1395790809.jpg?w=704.jpg","width":"141"}{"alt":"Click image for larger version Name:\tENM12728.jpg Views:\t0 Size:\t215.8 KB ID:\t31784466","data-align":"none","data-attachmentid":"31784466","data-size":"custom","height":"200","title":"ENM12728.jpg","width":"300"}{"alt":"Click image for larger version Name:\t16362479723991.jpg Views:\t0 Size:\t273.7 KB ID:\t31784467","data-align":"none","data-attachmentid":"31784467","data-size":"custom","height":"200","title":"16362479723991.jpg","width":"355"} Also about David, his defensive skills might not be in par with those of Canelo, but you're really underestimating his boxing ability. You can't spar world class champions before debuting, become the youngest supermiddleweight world champ at 20 and defeat tough competition like a prime version of Anthony Dirrell or a power puncher Roamer Alexis Angulo without having any sort of defensive skills.

Plant has a major weakness and that is his gas tank......that is a recipe for disaster against a fighter like David Benavidez who has shown to not slow down and constantly hunt you down.

You're basing this all on Canelos ability which I think you might have placed too much stock in since you downplayed Bivols win over him,stated it was due to size and not skill which couldn't be further from the truth. You're not wrong in saying Plant is underrated offensively and defensively. I was one of the few that predicted Plant had the ability to KO Dirrell but Canelo isn't Benavidez and vice versa. We can go on about the differences of the 2 but I think your bias for Mexican boxers is honestly clouding your judgment here. Plant does have the ability to get on his back foot and use his crisp counters and footwork,there's a reason he requested a 22ft ring, and box to a controversial decision....but KO"ing a light heavy like Benavidez?? Highly unlikely... ​​​​​​Bivol has skils but the worst Canelo versión is in 175, thats a very Big division for him and Bivol was clearly way bigger than him the Best canelo is the 160-168 versión, specially in 168.

You lost me with the dogboe/benavidez reference. David's a fuking monster bro he dropped bivol in sparring.

You confident Benavidez wins? I’m kinda 50/50 between Benavidez late stoppage and Plant on points. Very confident.

People, I have seen more than 800 fights in My life. I know about this. This is a clear fight where the mass is wrong, most of fans don't give a chance to Benavidez. I remember this feeling in the fight of Dogboe vs Navarrete Dogboe was favorite 10 x 1 Dogboe was overrated (like Benavidez) and nobody had a idea about Navarrete ​​​​​​ Look. Canelo is a monster in 168, he dropped his level in 175, thata a very Big division for him like Roy Jones JR said, that was a stupid movement. But in 168 he is a monster, right? Canelo has like 90% of K.O ratio in 168. Fighting the better, not like Benavidez. So, canelo k.o Plant, that does not mean Benavides could do the same. I remember Plant was able to catch Canelo in counter several times in their fight. Were clean punches, beauty punches I only remember Floyd did the same, Bivol was using his massive size diferencia to punch and move But plant was catching canelo in the middle of the offensive ​​​​​​Canelo is a very Smart slugger Benavidez don't. Plant is getting more power with his new trainer Benavidez resume is trash, Plant have better exp better footwork, better high IQ And Benavidez chin is not strong Mark My Words ,kids ​​​​​ Bro why cheer against a Mexican just to make another look good. Tenemos que estar con todos Los Mexicanos.

- - U Pass this out to U 3rd grade class? How many x U repeat 3rd grade so far? Didn’t you hear? He quit school. He was going to Queensbury Academy but it turns out the headmaster is a pedophile.

I hope Benavidez wins tbh, not a massive fan of the guy but just think it’s better for the division and creates a fresh matchup in Canelo-Benavidez. If Plant wins, does anyone really wanna see Canelo-Plant 2? My thinking is if Plant wins , which I’m really not a fan of , it will bring movement to the division More fights to be made cause only one fight can be made with Canelo I’d rather people step up after a Benavidez loss etc etc etc

Hope your right but just can’t see it happening Plus wtf has Caleb really knocked out and don’t bring up Dirrell , please I hope Benavidez wins tbh, not a massive fan of the guy but just think it’s better for the division and creates a fresh matchup in Canelo-Benavidez. If Plant wins, does anyone really wanna see Canelo-Plant 2?

Can't wait to bump this, ****stick You confident Benavidez wins? I’m kinda 50/50 between Benavidez late stoppage and Plant on points.

Benavidez will beat Plant pretty bad. Benavidez is much stronger than canelo. Canelo is not f.ucking monster lol.

Plant is not in Benavidez's league. He's going to get run over and KO'd.

Agree to Disagree, we will see Saturday night. What it took to beat Plant was accumulated punches, smart pressure and timing which are David's greatest strengths. Same thinking here
