Comments Thread For: Caleb Plant: Me Versus Canelo Would Be A Great Fight!

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Caleb Plant (19-0, 11 KOs) is now into his second year as IBF Super Middleweight champion and the 27-year-old believes he is only now beginning to blossom. In January 2019 the Tennessean shone against tough Venezuelan Jose Uzcategui, who had been elevated from interim to full IBF champion six months prior following James DeGale's decision to vacate the title, over the 12 round distance to take the championship home to Nashville where the second defence of his title takes place this weekend.

I think Plant would take the offers from Canelo that Callum Smith and Billy Joe Saunders are turning down.

Then again Al Haymon might tell him to price himself out.

We will see.

not a great fight but probably every bit as good as a Saunders or drained Smith fight.

Am I the only one here who gives Plant a shot to win? Canelo can't stop anybody good at 160 let alone at 168, and Plant has the style and footwork to make Canelo look terrible.

Plant easily outboxes the plodding canelo. Bad style matchup for Canelo therefore you will never see that happen nor do I think an offer will ever be made. If I am wrong I will get ringside seats for my family and friends no matter where it happens

Plant or benavidez are the 2 most dangerous options for Canelo at 168 and possibly overall fromm160-168. Plant because he's fast and athletic. Canelo hasn't looked good vs those types of fighters and I don't think hes faced anyone with the combo of being as fast, sharp and big as plant is during his career . Benavidez because he's much bigger than Canelo and is a high volume puncher. I could see him wearing Canelo down late. With that being said, I still expect Canelo to pick either Saunders or Smith despite them turning down initial offers because of the reasons stated above.

Nobody will ever get a décision againt canelo .thats why hé wants plant who cant knock him out. Best fight that he can make is against benavidez and i think benavidez stops him .

Plant is too technical for Canelo, they won't make that fight, that's a bad matchup for Canelo therefore Canelo will call him a boring fighter. Tell me I'm wrong.

[Gideon lock]

Who the *** has plant beat to be "to technical for canelo" hahahaha what kinda chit do you smoke to come to that conclusion im not a canelo fan but can recognise his skill and adaptability in there. He's the real deal and proven plant isn't wtf.

Hope everybody freezes out canelo until he drops this hydration clause bs and fights like a man
