Comments Thread For: Plant: I Wasn't Overly Impressed With Canelo; Callum Smith Didn't Go Out On His Shield

Hahaha I haven’t the faintest. He is a great fighter as is Plant (to the eye plus he has a strap). Plant hasn’t seen nearly the competition Canelo has however Plant has elite footwork, elite hand speed and as you said very deceptive power. I feel he can cause Canelo all kinds of problems. However, I think Canelo has progressed so much that he now can adjust to boxers like Plant. Out of the entire division Plant does give him the biggest problem.

Well said. Agreed. Some of these jokers are just blinded by ethnicity, nationality, and nationalism.

Alvares Vs Smith is a big joke. Its a fixed. Callum came only to collect check. Thats the reason why he didnt exert effort...

I would love to see Plant vs Benavidez. The big winner would definitely deserve a mega fight against Canelo at 168

Meanwhile Plant is scheduled to face Caleb Traux. Canelo just beat an undefeated champion Plant should practice what he preaches. People that have been talking s*** on Smith don't know s*** he is a class act and got beaten by the king of the division period!

It’s because most of these illiterate clowns have never been beyond their own back yards let alone another country. The closest thing they’ve come to a cultural experience is from the corner Chinese restaurant.

Like you I served. As a Marine I travelled the world. Trained with Thai Marines and British Royal Marines. I’d fight right along side a Brit, no questions asked. Boxing is about the love of a sport not some garbage argument about this country and that.

Plant just signed to fight his latest cherry(Trauxe) on less notice than he turned down Canelo before,& less than Smith got

Canelo ain’t Trauxe either. And even if Plant wanted the fight Fox wouldn’t go along. 5 weeks isn’t enough time to promote a PPV, especially when Canelo’s guarantee is going to be north of 20 million. It’s bad business.

Plant should have taken on Canelo. Don't count on getting it in future.

Plant is basically I'll fight him if they overpay me to lose!

Even with a 14 week camp this overrated protected chump won't get in the ring with Canelo

Plant, shut up and fight Benavidez, he´s been calling you all the time.

Melikuziev? I've been watching Melikuziev fight for years as an amateur and he's always had a horrible stamina. His style of fighting is explode and go hard with every short. Melikuziev is only good for 5 rounds against top level opposition.

I don't know much about the guy to be honest, only footage I got from him is his last 3 fights, and to me vs Alexander he did not see like ran out of gas, at the contrary he looked to me like he has a great tank for his physique and his high volume light feet style.

I'm just based on his last 3 fights, I might be wrong with him but to me he has that unique style to give Alvarez problems.
