True.

[JxhDel.]

Thank you, Nelo for busting all of this undeserved hype. 10 million dollars my posterior

And now, the real fight at 168 lbs after BJS: David Benavidez.

[DrDuke]

Plant was doing good early, but Canelo's toughness, cold mind and power prevailed.

Plant gave Canelo the most competetive fight since Kovalev.

A one of the scorecards was going for a robbery. I had it 96-94.

[gregregegg]

Canelo is so dominant that when someone loooks better than yildrum instinctivly i give a lot of credit. then i think.... the reality should be

-GGG 1, GGG won.

-GGG 2, probably a draw.

-Filding is not good

-Jacobs was a close fight

-Kov was winning after 10

-Smith went 12

-Billy was even through 8

Canelo is as dominant as anyone has been as a whole through an era (since mayweather), but canelo dosent really dominate fights, he does enough and learns and makes it hell if he needs to. Plant did well, better than i thought he would, but cant instinctivly get carried away by plants preformance. plenty have put in a decent crack vs canelo, canelo just knows how to get over the line.

It's tough to judge him for Kovalev and BJS. He stayed cool and crushed both. The same with Plant.

[margaret thatcher]

i only gave billy 2 rounds tbh

i did think ggg clearly won the first fight, but that canelo won the rematch close

i thought canelo beat jacobs 8-4 at least

i did think plant could be scored as many as 4 rounds tonight and agreed with the even card vs kov


as mentioned though, i think in some of these fights, like jacobs, plant, billy, etc.........canelo was very cool and in control, and knew he could step it up another level, kinda like usyk vs bellew

[margaret thatcher]

im not too interested in canelo at 168 much longer

BRING ON LHW

a lhw gave him his toughest fight since ggg. its not going to be talent that beats canelo any time soon, it will have to be size + ability combo

[DrDuke]

Interestingly, both BJS and Plant suffered from the low punches to the head. It seems like people just don't know how to hide from Canelo's powah, they bend down in pain, but get even more f*cking pain. Canelo is a powerhouse.

The angles Canelo uses are too good.

[margaret thatcher]

they both have a similar style, lot of bending like that, makes sense they'd end up getting hit with the same type of shot when bending low

[Ruthless-RKO]

[margaret thatcher]

except canelo cleans out divisions and fights the best instead cherry picking limited ass opposition

[Ruthless-RKO]

Judges behind the scores

Steve Weisfeld: 98-92 Canelo
Dave Moretti: 97-93 Canelo

Ironically, the supposed worst judge gave the best score.

[margaret thatcher]

ya hes a boss, ppl shoulda known by now

[DrDuke]

Canelo's path is great up to date, he should continue. Fight Benavidez or Charlo, or move up and challenge titles at LHW.

Exactly what i ment with the Usyk vs bellew comment.... Just because its close, doesn't mean its close.

Think plant hid from the power amazingly. Right arm across the body and chin elliminating canelos left hooks. Shoulder turned so much that any right hooks are back of head, or side. then lateral head movment to avoid strait punches. As good as it gets really. But with no power to hold him off, canelo will find you eventualy.

Yes, Plant boxed very good. It seemed like he lacked engine and power in his own hands. Or just Canelo is a too durable and tough operator.
