    Everyone knows that ain't happening and to try and force that means you don't want the fight to happen. More purse money to Plant probably isn't an issue but to tie Canelo down to Haymon, good luck.

    I agree with this. Either Plant or Beterviev for Canelo; Charlo for GGG.

    Charlo is like Crawford of the middleweights (Not as good). Best in the division but the whole risk vs reward gets in the way. He wouldn't fight Danny Jacobs and nobody is lining up to fight him. A really good up in coming middle weight will want to fight him.

    If no Plant then I don't mind the fight. I would have said Benavidez as a replacement but...
    1: He's got a fight in August
    2: He's an Al Haymon fighter - so it will have the same problems as Plant

    Great. Bring on GGG - Canelo III it is long overdue and now is the time as GGG isn't getting any younger.

    3 years is 3 years.

    Look how much Kovalev declined between 2016 and 2019.....

    Why? Plant is absolutely garbage. He looked like dog crap against a shot Truax. Zero intrigue to that fight except that is a hollow unification.

    GGG beat Clenelo twice in the eyes of most people.

    Stop! Plant has speed and movement and can frustrate Canelo with it and GGG didn't beat Canelo 2x. I have no interest in seeing Canelo send GGG into retirement better fights out there for both men to take.

    Canelo "Scavenger" Alvarez is once again feasting on an old and shot big name fighter.

    I don't want to see it tbh. I think Canelo stops this version of GGG with a body assault, especially if it happens at 168lbs. GGG is shot.
