    Canelo would have had to stay at 160 if he were around 10 years ago, cause he sure as fuck wouldn't have beaten Ward.

    Canelo is not playing counterpuncher? He can lead, but he prefers to counter.

    Canelo will win, but Caleb's already given a performance he can be proud of.

    Looks like I underestimated Plant. He isn't really in the fight, but he's been more competitive than Smith or Saunders were. Well, he hasn't had his face smashed in yet.

    The key to beating Canelo is to back him up. He’s only effective going forward IMO.

    Which is the complete reverse to about five/six years ago.

    I've got a feeling this ends in a controversial decision. Not in that Canelo doesn't deserve it, but there's enough close rounds for his detractors to kick up a stink.

    Canelo closed the show in style!

    But Caleb can be proud of his performance. He fared far better that Sloth Smith and the quitting Gypo.

    Ah, fuck. Was the stoppage good? Did Canelo begin going for a stoppage around R9?

    The stoppage was academic. Plant was finished.

    I was wrong, it wasn’t an easy fight for Canelo. Although I found him a bit too negative, I gotta give props to Plant, I didn’t expect him to be that competitive.

    Thanks. That seems pretty consistent with the few posts I was seeing here and other places.

    Explosive and others were right I was wrong Plant wasn't there for a payday. Gave Canelo a good fight. Went out on his shield. Respect.

    Let's see Ward vs Canelo next. Ward beats Canelo just a better version than Plant.

    I dont like Alvarez at all. But aside from the fact he just beat another top 5 contender in his division and made 30 to 50 mill. Other than that they're similar
