    Plant won't likely land a hook like that against Benavidez. And in the off chance that he does, David will take it well. The question is, how will Caleb react to a barrage of combos to his head and body from Benavidez?

      Plant can beat Bena. Obviously it will be on the cards. Plant will not be standing in front of Bena while he unloads those combos - this will be a completely different fight to any of his previous encounters. Lets see how David reacts when he can't find his opponent.

        People acting line Benavidez is on canelo’s level give me a break. Caleb outboxes him over 12 for the decision.

          Make no mistake, I do favor Benavidez to stop Plant at the moment. But, as I said, I'd be curious to see Benavidez put in some degree of difficulty to see how he does in a different mindset.

            I lean toward Benividas of course but I think this will be by far his most difficult fight. He hasn’t exactly CHALLENGED himself. Everyone now a days likes to take the “Charlo” path. I see a boxer whipping him but he has got to have far more experience and also be younger.

I like how benevidez didn't care about any of the stipulations, he said whatever u want u can have, let's just fight. That's the type of confidence I like to see. I'm expecting a breakout performance from DB, something to shut down all his detractors.
              Did Plant really ask for a 22 ft ring?

                Everyone seems to be picking D. Benavidez without considering how good an operator Plant is. Don't get me wrong, I'm high on Benavidez, however he hasn't been in there with someone the caliber of Plant yet....

                  Skill for skill Plant definitely has a chance, but? In other area's, I think Plant has already shown that he cannot really compete with Benavidez.

                  Plant was ****** out by Alvarez, out of nowhere. And I don't rate Alvarez as a monster puncher.

                  Plant has to go into this fight, tactically with the intention of out boxing Benavidez etc.

                    Yeah, it was a fighthype interview with benevidez where he was talking about all the stipulations plant was asking for.

                      He'll probably ask if he can wear his track shoes too.
