Title: UFC 268 & Canelo vs Plant
Post by: AbrahamG on November 05, 2021, 08:23:09 PM
Who you guys got?  Starting with the UFC.

Shane Burgos vs Billy Quarantillo - Burgos in a 3 round war by decision.
Frankie Edgar vs Marlon Vera - This is my toughest pick.  Edgar could have one more good one but Vera is due for a break out win.  I'll go with Vera by close decision.
Justin Gaethje vs Michael Chandler - The Khabib fight aside, Justin is a bad ass and complete fighter now under the tutelage of Trevor Whitman.  Gaethje by 2nd round stoppage.
Rose Namajunus vs Weili Zhang - I'll go with Weili by 4th round stoppage setting up the rubber match in a trilogy.
Kamaru Usman vs Colby Covington - Again, under Whitman Usman has become the best fighter in the world.  He'll get Covington out quicker than last time.  Unless he just decides to carry him all five in order to punish him for being such a vile piece of shit.

Canelo vs Plant - People are really sleeping on Plant.  He's gonna give Canelo his toughest fight since the GGG fights.  I still have to go with Canelo either by competitive decision or 11th round stoppage.  That being said, I would not be surprised if Plant pulls off the decision.  But still, I'm sticking with Canelo.

I agree with you, this will be no easy walk in the park for Canelo, Plant is a tough SOB and won't give up easily, will go the distance I think and a split decision in favour of Canelo, see a rematch in the future...

Andrade undisputed at 160 - Ducked and blamed Oscar Cokehead Hoya
Plant undisputed at 168 - Got $40 million guarantee plus upside money from Plant's own adviser and manager

You can't make this stuff up.

Why would you watch this fight? 

Viva Mexico!  ::)

Sorry, I don't know much about UFC for any commentary.

In sports skill recognizes skill.  I'm assuming you never play competitive sports. Canelo barked up the tree of less resistance. You know exactly what I just said.

Wirey Olympic skill level southpaw vs short orthodox fighter with limited mobility fighting out of a high guard. Keep playing stupid.  Thought you knew boxing.

Video is better than the fight.  Notice he loves to duck.  Saunders who took PEDs up the nose to duck Andrade loved to duck.  Erickson Lubin also loved to duck.

I have $40 mil of Al Haymon's money Plant's muscle memory will kick in.

Canelo face-palmed him, and he started to leak.  Love the scare tissue.  Wait till the leather touches his skin. 

Plant is fun to watch but his only fight in 21 fights is Uzcategui.  If he had fought Charlo (power in the late rounds) or Benzavidez (constant pressure), he would have been properly tested for Canelo.  Instead, he is about to get...

Then again PBC fighters only bum hunt until Haymon can get them a cashout fight.

BTW if Canelo doesn't fight 40 yr old GGGimmick for the 3rd time, PBC is lining up Benivadez and Charlo as his next opponents.  One of them would have been ready for Canelo if they had actually fought each other.  Easy $120 mil for Canelo and the fans are tricked once again, thinking he is better than Crawford and Usyk.

Benavidez is a fucking monster.  I think Canelo jumps to 175 before he gives Benavidez the time of day.

Plant by decision. He is going to jab and fight a very defensive boring fight. He will rack up the points but in no time in the fight will Canelo be rocked.

Canelo has this seeming inevitableness - force of nature - quality.  I pick him for a late round stoppage.

Canelo could've stopped him whenever he wanted. He was playing with him all along... to hear some people saying that Caleb went almost to the distance with Canelo is an achievement ...  no, he was a joke.

This is Benavidez vs one of FMW Jr's TMT fighters.



Plant, Bena and Charlo are all Haymon.  I think you meant to say, Haymon is selling their a$$e$ to Canelo fight PPV revenues, given PBC is in the "red". If they had actually fought each other one of them may have been ready for Canelo.

Skill recognizes skill. There is a reason why Canelo ducked Andrade at 154 and 160 for undisputed. Of course, he can rob Andrade on the cards but he'll get exposed in the process

Of course, his fucbois call Andrade wife on the phone like they did Lara's and call her a "N" lover.

I just love me some Mexicans.  ::)

I felt the same way.

Canelo seemed to be holding back a bit.

Glad he knocked Plant out.

Fellas, I'm gonna disagree.  While I felt Canelo was up on points, he was very frustrated.  Caleb is a terrific prize fighter.  To Canelo's credit, he doesn't get discouraged and kept after it till he caught him.  Once he caught him, he finished him.  It's amazing to me how much Canelo's power has moved up with him in weight.  Canelo is great for boxing and is on his way to becoming the greatest Mexican fighter of all time.  If he gets the scalps of Bivol and Beterviev, he's knocking on top 10 all time p4p.  That being said, both of those guys have styles and size that could trouble Canelo but I no longer have any reason to doubt he can win both fights.  I think if he and GGG go at it a 3rd time, Canelo gets him out in around the 8th round.  But, maybe GGG is to Canelo what JM Marquez was to Manny P.?  As far as Caleb Plant is concerned?  He'll be back.  And I'll predict he'll get better from this.

Canelo was throwing the exact same 3-4 combos the entire fight until round 9 or 10.

That's why i figured he was holding back a little.

Plant has good defense, but it was not as good as what we've seen in his last fights IMO.

Plant looked off to me by a lot. I think he has more potential.

The fight was close on paper. I remember telling people that when we were watching the fight. I said "someone has to do something BIG to win this thing". Then Canelo delivered.

A lot of the rounds were very close, but Canelo was controlling the ring, being more active and pushing forward. Plant needed to do that if he wanted to win.

Post by: bLuEeYes on November 08, 2021, 04:50:52 PM
Canelo is getting more explosive. He is just waiting for the right moment to explode and when he feels it is, it's game over. He's confident in his power. Maybe his weight made him lose some stamina and that's why he is holding back and waiting for the right moment to deliver powerful punches.

It was the same thing against Billy Joe. Canelo was in control and poor Billy had a bit of success and was building up his confidence. I remember Billy ducked alot of punches in the same way and I thought he'll catch him while ducking low. That's what happened.

Canelo will have trouble against a guy with an iron chin who's active 12 rounds. Beside GGG who's now really old and who I think won his first fight again Canelo, I don't see a fighter who has this profile and can win against canelo on point.

Guys like Charlo has power but that's not enough to knock Canelo and I don't see Canelo ever going back in weight. Beterbiev on the other hand can knock Canelo out. Canelo is fighting every 3 months now so he doesn't have a reason to skip Beterbiev until he is 38 or something
