    I have it 3-4 Canelo atm, fight isn't over, but Canelo definitely is trying to take over, plant giving him a lot of resistance still tho

    Plant is slick but featherfisted. Gave him 2 rounds thus far.

    Canelo is nowhere near Usyk.

    Plant doesn't throw enough shots. He need to throw more than just a jab to get Canelo's respect.

    Canelo: 4,5,6,
    Plant 1,2,3,7,8,

    Richie Woodhall is sure Plant has damaged his right or having a tactical disaster in sheathing it. Maybe though the idea is to absolutely minimise risk in trying to out-peck the guy - which I get in a vacuum but how is that ever going to bring them the decision against Alvarez? Nice one two to the body there but he just isn't hurting his man. I'm impressed by this performance by Plant but I can't imagine he is winning on the scorecards?

    UK commentary “Canelo has found it very difficult tonight”.

    I’m sorry but he hasn’t, it’s been so comfortable. He just hasn’t managed to get him out - yet.

    These cards aren’t even gonna be close. This is wider than Canelo BJS imo which surprises me a bit.

    Canelo dominating him, but I'll give Caleb credit if he lasts the distance

    Just up and watching from 6th. Plant doing OK but needs to let his right go more! Wonder if he's broken it as not using it AT ALL

    The judges probably gave Plant one round. At most.
