    I think the whole bit where Plant was asking Canelo if he thought he was a good fighter whilst they were actually fighting hinted at some self-belief issues.

    I've legit never seen anything like that in a boxing match before. I actually quite liked Plant before that, but yeah that didn't go down well at all.

    Plant taking a beating versus prime Toney:

    "Am I good, James??"

    "NAHHHH YOU FUCKIN GARBAGE!"

    Plant is kinda like Ryan garcia. Fought hardly anyone and stumbled into a big payday vs Alvarez. He seems like a more legit, dedicated athlete at least

    To Ryan’s credit, he did pass a gut check in a fight, though he did it against a non- puncher.

    Plant just seems soft to me. I fully expect him to fold mentally once Benavidez begins to land some serious leather.

    I'm not getting the Garcia hate from Neil. Plant never destroyed a solid fighter like Ryan did to Campbell. He outboxed Uzcat, but I TOLD the forum that Uzcat was overrated and Plant would UD him. I was the only one on here who picked Plant. Neil said Uzcat would give him a beating.

    Ryan pushed for the Tank fight, not vice versa. So you gotta give him props for that.

    Dirrell is just as solid as Campbell

    True, but Caleb is a lot older than Ryan.

    Plant had done nothing at 24.

    I'm hardly a Garcia fan, but Javier Fortuna is definitely a better win than Uzcat IMO. If all else is equal, in terms of Campbell and Dirrell, Garcia should still take it.

    Watching the final presser now. Undercard is actually pretty good. I don't feel at all hesitant about ordering now.

    Who else is watching? Whether ordering or not.

    Ramirez vs. Comey is on ESPN too. Love it when there's 5 hours of boxing to watch.

    I think Rayo will bust Colbert up. That makes it exciting.

    Spencer has no defense, so whether he wins or loses it should be a fun scrap.

    I wonder if we’ll see Rayo get knocked stupid again. Probably why most of you are ordering this :cl:

    Hyped! Been a long time since I was up for a fight.

    Sticking with my prediction. Benavidez in 9.
