Comments Thread For: Benavidez Warns Plant: Easy To Look Good Against a Bum!

[BoxingIsGreat]

This era is full of overly sensitive snowflakes.

I guess dudes bludgeoning one another with fists is cool but name calling?

Can't have that, someone's feelings might get hurt.

Good post. Especially if it's being used as a level, bum as a D or lower rank. That guy was the definition of a bum. Besides having no skills, he wasn't even one of the stronger face-first Eastern Euro brands. He had basically nothing. No style.

Despite his flashes, Plant isn't that good. I'm far from sold yet.

Benavidez is a different type if Animal

Zero reason for this fight not to happen after the mandatory Benavidez has to get out of the way. I can see this as a career high payday for both fighters in the November time frame. The pre-fight trash talk will be worth the price alone based on what these two have done so far.

Benavidez has some skills, definitely, but at least in his most recent fights, Plant has shown a greater resolve and definitely better accuracy in his punches. But it would still be the most sought after SMW fight we could see right now. Hope it happens soon.

I agree, I don't call fighters bums, but this guy was definitely a punching bag, wasn't throwing much back. Plant does have some boxing skills, but lacks punching power, I think Benavides or Canelo would beat him.

You can say whatever you want if you can back it up.

And David Benavidez can definitely back it up.

Era? Huh? My guess is I’ve been around this earth somewhat longer than you. Maybe quite a bit longer. My comment had NOTHING to do with what you’re citing. You don’t disrespect another professional you’re not fighting a bum simple as that

Calm down - his comments are totally fair game since Plant’s recourse is to literally put his foot in David’s azz. If it was you or me, talking that shizz on the internet, your complaint would be relevant, but this is actually VERY tame when it comes to combat sports. This ain’t no place for snowflakes.

I lost interest when I realized Plant was going to play with him all night. I don't use names, but Benevidez was quantifying, as a member of the profession. It sounds like he has some first hand knowledge.

Plant could have had him out in 3 but he put on a show for Nashville.

Based on the attendance Haymon and the chants of USA imo Plant is a rising star.

PBC will play the long game w/Plant b/c it makes business sense.

Love plant, he gets down.. gotta go with benavidez, he seems unstoppable right now..9th round tko

Plant vs Benavidez winner fight Smith vs Saunders winner in unified fight. Canelo can fight the best out of these 4.
