  • Is this the most clear instance of a fighter losing rd 1before the fight? Or maybe Floyd v Ortiz?Or did Canelo lose by rage

    Lets add things up. Plant got pushed across the ring like a rag doll in a 100mph wind,then got his punch dodged,& then left hooked followed by a pimpslap so wicked it resembled some blackploitation movie type shz. He ended up looking like some dude who got beat up by a bully at the prom.

    Did Plant lose Rd 1 by not being prepared to"protect himself at all times" or did Canelo lose by him getting under his skin?(an argument can be made for both)

    Or was Floyd choking out Ortiz as Ortiz took it like a btch the best example of winning the mental war before the fight?

    I just thought of a few others,Ali made Floyd Patterson his btch before the fight by calling him uncle tom at every opportunity & destroyed him mentally.(that was some fcked up sht in all honesty by Ali,he regretted it yrs later)

    Duran mentally destroyed Leonard before the fight by telling him that he'll show his wife what a real man is like(or something to that effect) which made Leonard lose his mind & decide to fight coming forward when everyone expected him to go backwards as his only chance.

    In context the Leonard Duran fight makes me think Plant is attempting to get Canelo to do the same to his detriment,& that Ward taught him this recently.

    But the problem with this working is BJS tried to do the same thing & we see how that went. So this might actually work against Plant,as when a fighter makes Canelo angry enough to go for strictly the ko it made him push into 5th gear instead of the usual staying in 4th all fight.

        Well I see it this way, yes Canelo looked like he roid raged it but Canelo also responded how you should with a big mouth. Canelos a fighter, Im glad he didnt play the humble Mexican.

            Im surprised Canelo was the first to get physical because Plant used the MF'er term. Canelo has used the same word before, so it dont make sense...maybe just hype to sell the fight since Plant really is unknown.

              Fury's mind games on Klitschko basically won him the fight

                Excellent reference. Thats true,Fury mentally destroyed Klit before the first punch was thrown.

                  Plant should have saved the shades for the post fight press conference to hide his battered mug.

                    I believe it plays into both guys favor. Plant was able to obviously get under Canelos skin and I think he couldve won the mental battle across the board but he missed the slap and ate 2 so on that note Canelo probably managed to get in Plant's head. This could be a fun fight to watch.
