IDK how you guys say that he's weight drained? David is shredded considering how he looked before and also he looks 100% disciplined. After the weigh in he will probably add 3-4 kilograms. David will win either win by a K.O. or on points. Of course I'm not a Caleb hater - he also has some chances but they are pretty slim.

Obviously Breadman is a very nice, cordial guy but, as a trainer, is he tough enough and willing to articulate the stern message required to Plant needed in the fight plan to prepare Plant victory?? I’m not seeing that and for that reason, bet on Benevidez…

yeah the trainer needs to prove he’s “tough enough”. What does that even mean? Be more like Teo Lopez Sr or Kevin Cunningham? Just scream expletives and call it training? Virgil Hunter was amazingly calm with Andre Ward. How did that work out? Plant doesn’t need to be undisciplined in this fight. In fact that would be his downfall

Already thought that Plant would have hefty task against Benavidez considering that David had improved compared to when he battered a prime version of Dirrell, plus the fact that David comfortably disposed of Kyrone Davis kinda reaffirmed it for me since he had a draw with the same version of Dirrell that Plant fought with.

To make things worse for Caleb, he is also fighting a 100% disciplined version of David Benavidez.

Damn!!! Benavides looks in tremendous shape for the first time now I’m curious to see how he performs.

David has never had stamina issues to my knowledge so hope Caleb Plant is ready for 12 hard rounds. If David is really conditioned and not weight drained he is a monster!

Great fight may the best man win!

Benavidez looks really dry. Look at those weight drained eyes. I hope he makes weight

My thoughts as well. His body may look more cut than in the past, but every interview that I've seen of him his face looks gaunt and paild. I'm wondering if he's as fit and ready as his body seems.

I’m asking the question, while Breadman continues mentioning Plant’s heart to media, is Breadman taking Plant’s heart to the level he’s asking for during training? Maybe, maybe not? We’ll see Saturday-

He looks in phenomenal shape i must say ,he shouldn't have problem making weight but yes its true he also looks bit paild and dried ,dont wanna think he might be over-trained ,you know what they say...muscles dont win fights. Still picking plant to win.

Yeah, same. I feel like Plant is going to surprise.
