168 is only “weak” as you say because you don’t like Canelo as he is mopping up the division. Benevidez wouldn’t be a challenge for Canelo either. Benevidez is slow footed, loops his punches and lunges when he engages. Translation: he is ripe pickings for a counter puncher and a puncher that is faster than he is which includes BOTH Plant and Canelo. Both have elite defense and when you miss punches over and over again you tire quickly. 168 is a very good division. You just don’t like how it is turning out. Canelo is just a step above everyone else. If he were not there you’d sing a different tune.

He's a skilled fighter but he doesn't look as good a sharpshooter as them. Lara might only land a few clean punches per round at times but the ones he lands are eye catching. Plant's work just doesn't have that same look to it that can help you win a close round. BJS was supposed to replicate what Lara/Floyd did as well but couldn't. I'd say Plant is slightly more talented than BJ, but also less proven.Comment

Plant Warns Canelo: I Possess A lot of The Same Athleticism, Boxing IQ as Mayweather, Lara
Warn all you want but things change doe. Canelo now have answers to those types of styles.
You have to bring more tools other than just run, hide, potshot, hold...
Then hope the judges would act like they know **** about boxing and gives it to you.
That is, if you even survive twelve rounds.
You have to be able to stand toe to toe like you have no respect for this animal's power.
In fact, you're already defeated when you start mentioning Lara, Mayweather, etc.
Just means you're terrified of his power and plans to run. Most of it is all mental doe.
You need to start imagining you're some rock that can't be destroyed or something...
Learn from Cnelo himself when he confronted GG in the 2nd fight. That's all mental...Comment

It's good that he's studying the Floyd and Lara fights. Maybe he can find something there that will allow him to make life difficult for Canelo.Comment

Its a totally different Canelo to the Floyd/Lara days .He's a ****ing wrecking ball now . To beat him now your going to need fast hands , power , a solid chin and probably some luckComment
