Comments Thread For: Benavidez: Plant Doesn't Pose A Threat To Canelo, Has No Punching Power

[Roadblock]

Canelo will destroy Plant he is class above.

As compared to the elite fighters? Yes very much so

yeah you should probably just admit that you’re wrong. His feet may be slow but his hands certainly aren’t. What fighter at 168 or 160 have you seen put together punches with that type of hand speed? I don’t know if it’s you trying to pretend as if Benavidez isn’t a threat to canelo, but he’s better than anyone canelo has fought at 168 and based on size and youth, he may be the biggest threat to canelo since Floyd.

Canelo post ggg fights found his confidence boxing and speaking this new canelo benevedez cause size range n can crack has best chance plant has as much power as saunders which didnt lil to none to deter canelo from coming foward with an onslaught unless ggg gets on roids n turn back the clock only people beating canelo is at 175 hes only fight beterbiev when he aged completly yet bivol ramirez and that the weight i think benevidez fights him at 175 1. Only chance to get a belt to bring more to table 2 it gives time to marinate get some legit names under chavez jr ramiraz to say 2023 this a massive showdown money maker .

No he isn’t faster than Canelo. No he isn’t faster than Plant. No he isn’t faster than BJS. And no he isn’t better than anyone Canelo has faced. Why? Because he has yet to face anyone with a chin, anyone that can hit hard, anyone that is faster than him and anyone that has a pulse.

"World Champion" means absolutely nothing in boxing. Thousands of mediocre fighters have been "World Champion" in boxing.

You can say that not having much power is a bad thing, but in some cases, it’s a good thing. Why? Because it forces you to focus on your skills. Look at Mayweather. Look at Shakur Stevenson. Look at Paulie Malignaggi.

You know you can’t rely on your power to bail you out. So you focus on other attributes so that you don’t get put in a situation where you need a KO.

Don’t get me wrong, power is important, but it’s nowhere near the most important.

A White boy just doesn't stand a chance.

[BigDramaShow!]

I wish Benavidez was fighting Jacobs, or Morrell Jr., instead of Uzcategui!

He likes to talk shyte about Plant, yet he’s fighting Plant’s leftovers next lmaoo

That's racist. I'm glad Canelo is too classy to ever talk like that.

he definitely is a faster combination puncher than all of them. I’m actually wondering if you’ve ever seen him fight. To call him slow is laughable. He’d smash everyone canelo has faced at 168 and other than the version of ggg from a few years ago, nobody canelo has faced would have much of a shot against him. It’s pretty clear that all you’re trying to do is talk him down because in reality, you know he’s a threat to canelo. A main reason why canelo wanted to unify at 168 was because Benavidez was out of the picture which is why he petitioned for the vacant wbc belt but never chased it when Benavidez had it. You know it’s true but to cover that, you’re gonna act as if Benavidez is lesser than these B-/C level guys canelo has fought at 168.
