Comments Thread For: Plant: Canelo Looked Beatable Against Mayweather, Lara, Golovkin, Kovalev, Saunders

[filup79]

So we will still pretend Plant has some chance?

Man up, ginger, fight 175 guys.

So those 175 guys need to move up to cruiserweight then instead of fighting bums waiting on Canelo then. Why is that only Canelo needs to move up while others can stay in their division fight nobodies and dominate it? GGG has spent most of his career at 160 fighting bums and that's ok but Canelo needs to keep moving up

Huh? What is Caleb talking about ? He will only have 5 rounds to dance then lights out!

Canelo gonna KO Planty so bad they gonna show his wife crying on PPV like pac Marquez

Plant wins by decision unless the judges rob him. He is the better fighter.

Plant didnt look unbeatable against many lower opposition, his best win against Uzcategui didnt look good either. Plant is right about Canelo but he is not the one who can do this..he is not at that level, it will be a mismatch, Canelo will KO him easily..

The man has a point; Mayweather did beat him, so did GGG in the first one. Kovalev was also beating him before gassing out late. Is Caleb the one though? Could be. Canelo doesn't come forward like he use to at that weight. Plant has skills.. Who knows. We'll see. But the man has definitely more than a chance.

I almost feel bad for Plant. How the hell did he look beatable in the Kovalev fight? I personally think GGG won the first fight but I can see why Canelo won the second. Mayweather, Lara? Canelo is a far cry from the fighter that fought those guys.

Yeah the Kovalev statement is irrelevant. Kov has crazy lights out power. Canelo was aware of that and was picking him apart carefully. There’s no way he shows the same respect to Plant.

Because he will get his career payday? And become rich and happy?

When you fight the best in their prime, and you are young and still developing as a pro, it’s going to be hard to look amazing.

Plant does not have that experience vs top level fighters like Canelo has. Canelo had these tough fights vs different styles. Mayweather/Lara, Trout/Saunders (I think they have similar styles but Saunders does it better), GGG/Kovalev, Jacobs has his own style I can compare to anyone else. Cotto has his own style. Callum Smith had his own style and physical advantages Canelo had not seen before at the top level. Ryan Rhodes.

Caleb Plant is like around Canelo’s age and his resume looks like that of a prospect’s resume. And he will be 30, still with a resume like that. Little to no experience vs top fighters.

So all this talk from him about Canelo looking beatable is a bit amusing because Canelo has a who’s who resume. So of course he will be tested. You can’t decision everyone at the top level 120-108, or TKO 1. Tough fights will happen. Yes Canelo has tough fights. But you don’t. You are not tested at the top level. Canelo is going to test you and you will need to show him, the judges and the fans how “beatable” he is yourself. If he is beatable, show us by beating him.

With that said, I know Plant has to hype himself up. He has to be confident. I get it. He is choosing not to praise Canelo and his career. Instead he keeps sh/tting on his career. But notice Canelo isn’t saying anything back. He will respond to Plant in the ring.
