    I think so. I've seen a few people trying to pretend it's a step in the right direction for Canelo but I think he's about the same level as the euros people bitched about Canelo fighting. Like a mid rounds KO type fight. The PPV will do good business which is good.

      Step in the right direction? Wtf are you talking about - no one has fought better competition than Canelo over, hell pick any number from 1-10 and he probably has the best resume in that number of fights lol. Yeah he is probably juiced to the gills and knows how to catch guys at the right time/on his terms,

      BUT STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION? Wtf man

      Canelo is probably going to punish Plant but that's because Canelo is just on a different level than most anyone else right now. That's what happens when you are number 1 pfp. He is probably juiced to the gills but what can ya do

        I have to explain what other people have said? How do I know how they came to that conclusion?

            That's what I figure. Plant has never done anything. His win over Uzcategui was good at the time but has aged poorly.

            I actually have a hard time getting excited for a Canelo fight lately. It's always Canelo vs some title holder who did jack **** but wait around to get the Canelo payday.

              I think so. Its a much higher profile fight though due to Plant being American and this not being on DAZN, so its better for boxing.

                I don’t think so. Saunders has been around longer but he still sucks. Plant has real boxing ability. He still might lose but Saunders sucks ass.

                  BJS had actually faced some semi-quality opposition. I gave him a shot because he looks damn good when he’s on. He brought his best but it wasn’t enough. Plant, for me, is hard to say. He’s never fought anyone of note so his actual level is still unknown.

                    Plant is the 175lb Tennessee version of paulie malignaggi.
