I kinda want Canelo to lose, he's a bit too full of himself lately

And still….

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.

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

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.

Do you get your meth, grass clippings and paint from the same source as Falcone de Johnny?

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.

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
