Comments Thread For: Canelo's Coach: Let's Get Plant Deal Done - Then I Like Charlo, Spence, Benavidez

Posted many of times he will fight them all but I'm already seeing people who accused Canelo of Ducking Charlo for years already wavering a bit to no surprise

LDBC’ism. Charlo is a staple for many radical black fight fans from Texas. Many in the last year have changed their tune in that it’s “well Charlo is 160.” Those fans actually say that now. These same guys are desperate in the hopes that David beats Canelo to save face for Charlo. So they make propaganda campaigns to say Canelo is ducking Benavidez when in reality Charlo vs Benavidez have a genuine and industry beef. Lol.

it’s obvious Canelo is the most feared fighter for the LDBC. They said Plant will “style On Canelo.” “bJS is all wrong for Canelo.”

these are all LDBC phrases. They’re not real boxing fans. They just love Haymon and PBC

Don't agree, but I could see how someone would feel that way. To his defense, we now know he had a difficult relationship with GBP l, who were guiding his career. They pretty much had the last word on who he faced and when. Regarding "path of least resistance", Canelo last 8 fights:

GGG
GGG
FIELDING
JACOBS
KOVALEV
C. SMITH
YILDRIM (he was forced to take this fight, or vacate)
SAUNDERS

Don't know you personally, but I'm familiar with your knowledge level based on previous post. You can't HONESTLY feel this is the path of "least resistance"

Ggg yes, obviously those were the most bruising fights of his career as evidence to his face after the second fight. Yildirim no, Kovalev at that stage and so soon after a bruising fight absolutely not and as evidence to his dismal showing. Fielding, Smith, I’m sorry mate but those are not impressive in any way.

They just love BLACKS

Fixed that for you.

Unfortunately with the PBC fangirls or "ILBBC" its black or bust. If Spence ducks Crawford and cries about promotional division the fans say, "YEAH, CRAWFORD SHIOULDVE NEVER SIGNED WITH TOP RANK. AINT HE KNOW THAT"

If Jermall says, "CANELO DUCKS ME" but Jermell says "my brother ducked Canelo", those fans say, "JERMELL AFRAID OF JERMALL AND HES LESS BLACK LOL"

If Wilder says, "MY SUIT WAS TOO HEAVY, MY TRAINER DRUGGED ME, FURY USED FAKE GLOVES, MY ANCESTRAL SPIRITS WERENT STNOG ENOUGH" those fans say, "FRUY TRYNA DUCK WILDER LOLLLLL BOMBZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ"

What in the fuck are you talking about? Canelo had ZERO bruises after 24 rounds with GGG. Canelo was FAR MORE bruised against feather-fisted Floyd and Lara LMFAO

Go suck some BBC you weird ILBBC cuckold

You’re the one who’s clearly biased and your username says it all. You seem to refuse to accept valid criticism of canelo. The other poster stated that canelo picks people coming off poor performances and you denied that was try and claimed otherwise. I gave you his last 3 opponents who as you said happen to be the ones that he picked since he’s now in charge of his own career and pointed the fact that they all came off poor performances. So if I’m biased than club then counter that argument of you can and tell me how they didn’t look vulnerable when canelo picked them.

Kovalev was coming off 2 great victories. Jacobs was coming off a great W. So was GGG. Yildrim was coming off a very solid performance vs. Direll. Wtfoook are you talking about? The ones that were coming off "bad performances" were champions. Canelo wanted their belt. Was he supposed to not fight them and forget about accomplishing his goals of collecting belts because they were coming off "poor performances"?

Kovalev had a dismal showing???? It was a very close fight at the time of the stoppage. And I notice how you conveniently left Saunders and Jacobs from the list above.

When canelo moved up to fight Fielding people said "he handpicked Fielding. No way he goes after Smith or the other top dogs at 168". Once he does face Smith and all the other top dogs at 168, the dominant performances are "not impressive in any way"

Kovalev was 3-3 in his last 6 with 2 ko losses and was damn near stopped by Yarde who’s basically a novice. Not to mention Kovalev then fought canelo just 10 weeks later. You’re really going to say he wasn’t compromised and wasn’t picked because he looked vulnerable? Do you think canelo would’ve picked the same Kovalev that ward fought? Be honest. As far as ggg, he fought a dangerous ggg but let’s not pretend like he didn’t wait that fight out for nearly 2 years and waited until he looked more vulnerable vs Jacobs. You’re really going to try and defend Yidilgrim? The guy lost to dirrell who isn’t even that good. Then was off for over a year. You’re gonna have to come better than that if you want to defend his opponent selection process. Why do you think canelo never tried to unify all the belts at 154 or at 160 when he was there? Why wasn’t it a goal of his then? But suddenly it’s his goal at 168 and you don’t think the lower level of competition has anything to do with it? Clearly you’re the one that’s biased because real boxing fans could acknowledge and understand why canelo made the choices he did.

That's what's really odd. It makes me wonder if Andrade is to Hearn as Guillermo Rigondeaux was to Arum. But Arum did get Rigo his two biggest fights and payday's ever. Hearn not matching Andrade up with one of those three guys is puzzling. With Rigo, it was his style (which I like, but doesn't sell), but with Andrade, the question is, is it his style, or is Andrade a head case, or if there is something specifically difficult for Hearn making a GGG or Mungia fight for Andrade. Many questions and not enough answers.

Say no more! You just never know!

There’s no polishing of a turd, Charlo looked extremely vulnerable….and I’m a Charlo fan who’s had ringside seats to his fights

I wouldn't write Charlo off after one average performance against a determined Montiel. Even the elites have their off days as Ali did with Lubbers, Wepner, and Chuvalo. I am not saying that Charlo is an all-time great fighter but he is explosive and has skills in abundance. He is a handful for anyone at 160-168 lbs.
