I was impressed by Plant

[BZBEE]

Plant did a better job than I thought he would. I expected canelo to take him out in 5 but up until the 11th, plant had good moments, where he made canelo miss and made canelo look slow and won some rounds.

Plant would have continued fighting if allowed.
He is definitely not a bum as most are labeling him here.

Plant KO's Pacquiao.

Plant boxed very well for 5-6 rounds. But by that point Canelo had figured out his movements, offensive patterns and began to time him. He began landing the left hook consistently and it was only a matter of time.

Plant is a horrible fighter to watch. he throws 4 punches a round doesnt hit hard enough and is unwilling to engage

Very true. Even in the 10th round plant put some combinations together and boxed well. Plant's conditioning also failed him towards the later rounds, but canelo's bodyshots were taking a toll by that time.

His style is not the most fan friendly and he lacks power, but his game plan was to move and he did good in some rounds, made canelo look silly actually.

Plant fought to survive not to win. He used that philly shell but he used it to survive, he was not countering out of it like a floyd, hopkins or toney. He was scared to get hit from canelos power. He would have lasted 12 rounds if canelo didnt press him really hard and specifically go for the knockout. shows how strong canelo's resolve is, round after round he never gave up his goal, working to break down this bum. He was waaay up on points but he wanted to punish him for talking chit. If you notice the big left hook that finally ended it, plant got tired and as a result let his chin hang out there with no support, untucked and not protected by the right hand. Canelo saw this and had a ton of energy left even in the late rounds, that is why he threw that leaping left hook to get in there in that window of opportunity that plant forgot his defensive minded surive to 12 at all cost mentality.

If your opponent doesnt care about winning but only suriving, it can be very hard to hurt them. Look at spence- mikey garcia and people mad that spence didnt knock him out but mikey only wanted to get through the fight with the least amount of damage not even trying to win. Same with plant, after he tasted canelo's power and some of his show boating techniques didnt land, he went into survival mode, thinking about that big pay check and how he just has to get through tonight and he can buy a mansion with the money canelo got him.

Yeah Canelo began to beat the fight out of him.

People are making too much of Plant going 11. After the 6th it was obvious Plant was way to defensive.

If you watch Floyd vs. Canelo, Floyd threw 1st and his lead 2 kept Canelo off balance. Plant went straight defense everytime. The shoulder roll is only effective if you make your opponent think twice about coming forward.
