Comments Thread For: Caleb Truax Warns: I Fight My Best When I'm in That Underdog Spot

[Catch n shoot]

This dude beat Degale??? I didn't know that, was during a brief period I wasn't following the sport as closely as I like, my prior screen names:wlliam- my first bscene account, Lazy jab- my previous account

Why call any boxer who works hard, comes in the ring every time ready to fight, places their life on the line each bout a bum?

Does it truly make you feel better about yourself to trash someone anonymously from the confines of your safe home?

I agree with you! Either the poster hasn't ever boxed a day in their life, or they have a lack of respect for others. It seems like it may be a confidence booster for a keyboard warrior to down someone who is trying to do good. Good call out!

Not the best opponent, but Truax is a vet and will probably be the most cagey guy Plant has faced so far. Not much staying power at the top top level but definitely a guy easy to root for as an underdog.

Why didnīt Plant fight Benavidez instead of this bum? Truax is not a champ, is he?? Plant is a coward who has held the belt hostage for two years fighting bums.

Didnt Truax loose to a passed it Jermain Taylor?

I’ll say the same to you as well, why do you persist calling ANY boxer a bum or let alone a coward? You people are truly something. You’re safe behind a monitor and keyboard anonymously calling a person involved in a profession where that person takes thousands of punches to the head at risk of death a bum.

Regarding Benevidez, what promoter in their right mind would put up the money for an opposing fighter that’s been stripped for drugs and then stripped for not making weight? Would you risk millions in making a bid for a fight under those circumstances? Maybe Benevidez should establish himself as a professional first before securing any lucrative fights. Hell, we don’t even know what weight he fights at anymore.

Great comment. I don't recall but I might've said it. I never will now.
