Comments Thread For: Dmitry Bivol Backing David Benavidez In Caleb Plant Clash

Great fight! Announce it already. All these good ones are just talk so for. The 2023 schedule looks bleak as of today.
I agree with Bivol here. Benevidez will chop Plant down like a machete.

Real good bout.

2 real different styles clashing together should be a good one.

Plants can box. He’s probably better skill wise than Benevitez, but Benevitez is on another level with his punch output, conditioning, and power shots.

I think it’s a question of can Plant take Benevitez’s power. Plant has the skill set to keep Benevitez at bay and I think he can win rounds against him, but can he do it for a full 12 rds? Idk Benevitez is a monster in there.

It’s hard for me to make a pick with this one I think I’m leaning on Benevitez, but for me it’s almost 50-50.

Absolutely terrific fight this. If we can get Andrade-Morrell and the two winners fight, that'd be a great year at 168. I think I read Benavidez' manager saying they'd agreed to fight Morrell after Plant?

Hell Yeah!!! I actually thought Fig. Won so glad they rewinding that back. He threw like 300 more punches landed like 50 more power punches then Fulton. Still was a GREAT fight!

It certainly was. I would've been cool with a draw, but not a Figueroa victory! Fig's aggression was not effective, and I thought Fulton was scoring more clean effective punches! I'm glad he agreed to a rematch! That's what real champions do! I just hope they give Fulton some home cooking! He's been a Road Warrior for a minute!

Benavidez is the most dangerous fighter at 168 and the fact that he never lost his belt in the ring, contradicts the use of the word “undisputed” in that division.

A two time belt holder that has a washed up one dimensional Lemieux as one of the best names on his record sure is undisputed. He is the undisputed most overrated fighter in boxing.

Oh yeah? Then who do you pick to beat him in that division?

I agree with Bivol.

With Canelo, Andrade, Morrell, Benavidez division is getting hot.

The question is, will Canelo duck all these guys?

[eco1]

Me too, I think Benavidez will win.

Plant has the skills and speed, Benny has the power and volume. Don’t see how this could be a dud! I’m very excited for this years fights. It’s about time for boxing to really jump back to the core of things and make a positive splash for everyone from us hardcore fans to the casuals

He screwed himself with the ******* use. Can't blame that on anyone else but him.
