Agree plus they're competing against that UFC card that's on BT but not PPV.

This will be Canelo's 4th fight in less than 12 months.
Take a bow!

4 fights could mean his Mexican beef has an expiry date and he has to use it up

He really is a throwback fighter that would have been able to compete in any era .. not many around today you can say that about.

Is he 29 or 30 now?
This is his 20th world title fight.

I've got a feeling this will be an early night for Canelo , think he'll come out a bit quicker than normal as Plant seems to of got under his skin

Pretty sure 32 .. youd imaging in his peak years; and doing what he should be doing - and fighting during them. Lots in the game should take note. The early and peak years should be busy gaining experience and skills; maybe not 4-5 tough fights a year - but if you`ve had easy nights as Canelo has with his opposition this year, then thats not putting wear and tear on you; its keeping you sharp. I would expect someone fighting regularly doesnt need such a tough fight camp.

Peak years!

How much of that was to sell tickets? to be fair Canelo is a bigger favourite in this than the Smith and Saunders fight - and as we know, he breezed through both of them without getting out of 2nd gear.
I don`t really believe Plant said anything derogatory about Mama-Canela .. and even if he just said "m0therfker" to Canelo its hardly something Canelo hasnt said to someone before .. didnt he say that to Andrade recently?

I don't really like Canelo for various reasons, but I'll concede he's very good. They've done a good job of hyping this, but Plant's opposition isn't anything all that special and he doesn't seem anything near as menacing as the SMW's of old. Apart from Alvarez, the division is dogshit.
Canelo has shown no signs of any nerves, overconfidence, a cocaine habit, lack of focus or physical decline. It looks like a one sided beating to me, so I'll be in bed and will watch the KO in the morning.
