Comments Thread For: Hearn: Saunders is Tougher Fight For Canelo Than Caleb Plant

[macmike100]

I see these fights differently. Saunders will be elusive. He will frustrate Alvarez. Question is will he land enough punches to overide the obvious judges bias.
Note: location TBD... Plant will control the distance much better than Alvarez has ever seen short of Mayweather. I see Plant throwing in more licks than Alvarez. Again, the judges.

Hearn says, "Canelo, he has good feet," Yes he does - compared to Frankenstein.

Not sure what you're talking about. Canelo doesn't bounce around the ring wasting energy, but his feet are always moving to get in and out of range to dominate his opponent. Not a plodder by any stretch of the imagination.

Slave trader junior has also said "i don't give a f#ck what the fans want"
The used car dealer is just telling anyone idiot enough to listen that Canelo Saunders is a fight. All Saunders has done is beat Lemmux easy then what? Box once a year against cans waiting for this cash cow fight. Shame Saunders is such a ***** chav muppet. He had momentum after Lemmux & i would have gave him an outside shot. But not now.

I see Saunders out there causing a lot of frustration.

Mostly to fans, unfortunately. He won't do enough to win and I doubt he'll even try.

My precise thought. Seems so backward that the super star fighter is the guy fighting 4x a year to unify while the 2nd tier guys wait around for their shot. Plant is so full of himself that he thinks he runs 168 though. He'll sit on his ass waiting and then demand a 50/50 split when Canelo offers him a fight.

Of course Plant does and why not!? You expect him to come out and say otherwise!? “Well you see guys I’m the gatekeeper of the title holders.” Cmon man get real! He has confidence and his skills show that confidence in the ring. It’ll be a good fight.

BJS is a better defensive fighter than Plant imho and Plant is a better offensive fighter than BJS, Alvarez kryptonite is high mobility slick guys, so Saunders should give Canelo a harder fight on paper.

Will make my official prediction after friday weigh-ins.

Great fight.

cmon man he's not goin to fight worse against plant than against bj

Lol at everyone defending pssy Plant. Him admitting that he wanted to face nothing but bums while Canelo unified all the belts will be forever immortalized in the Bible of boxing as the most chicken sht loudmouth ever to be gifted a vacant belt. Funny how so many criticizing Canelo for Yildirim think Plant is a real champion for beating Uzi whos almost on Yildirims level : ducking Canelo twice w bs excuses,all the while claiming to be the shotcaller at smw.
This is why even if Canelo slipped on a banana & Plant won I'd never be a fan of his,that along with him having a stroke that left him with only a left hand usable.( in other words because Plant is 1 dimensional by definition,the left is his 1 dimension)

After Canelo beats both I hope he fights Charlo,that will be icing on the cake

Eddie Hearn doing his job as a Promoter to Promote and sell this fight however he is only fooling Casuals and Groupies, not the Hardcore Boxing Fans!

Also told us how Callum Smith was so dangerous for Canelo

[Zaroku]
