4-3 Benavidez, Plant is moving less and engaging more now, not a good trend for him

4 Plant - benavidez 3
I think plant might have stole that round with that clean left hookie landed towards the end.

1-0 Benavidez, pushing the action (for once). Nice hook.
1-1 Plant, nothing much happening but good boxing by Plant.
2-1 Benavidez, harder punches, buzzed Plant. Plant with a couple of nice scoring shots that aren't doing anything.
2-2 Plant, great boxing. David reaching a lot, missing tons of shots. Lands some grazing shots. Obvious low blow by Plant that was missed.
3-2 Plant. Very tight round, David landing good shots but majority are blocked. Plant with combos and clinches. David getting frustrated.
3-3 Benavidez, starting to land some good shots. Plant is evading majority but not throwing anything good back. David with a nice right and a jab with best punches of the round.
4-3 Plant. This was looking like a big David round, but Plant steals it for me. He lands a few gorgeous counters and lands nice combos. Very close though, David is aggressive and hurt Plant.

David buckled a bit in the 7th and Plant was hurt himself. It's getting interesting.

Bayless has had better nights.

Plant is the Hainey of SMW ... Gotta do what you gotta do ...

It seems plant is starting to succumb to the pressure.
