      Yep spot on there by the end of the 8th? i think it was Canelo was just walking Plant down with his hands down zero respect.

        Paulie Malignaggi would’ve been a p4p fighter with power

        Wilder would be unbeatable with someone else’s skills

        It doesn’t mean anything. It’s all pie in the sky stuff.

        If Plant had power, he may not have developed as good as jab to rely on, same as Paulie.

          For real, Plant's jab and counters were giving Canelo issues at first but his stamina drain and lack of power were his undoing

            Good point however Plant would still retain his slickness lets be real he was hard to hit clean tonight for a majority of the fight.

            Canelo definitely had issues timing him clean.

              Well takes a ****load of energy to pull off the gameplan Plant used tonight.

                  We can all apply the word If to any scenario. What if Nelo was 6'4'' ???

                    He was getting hit clean to the body all night, what were you watching?

                      I was actually surprised Plant kept that pace for as long as he did.
