That's either delusional Canelo fanboys, that have bent over backward trying to convince themselves, because he did better than they thought he would, that he's somehow special. Meanwhile even GGG in the third match, performed far better than Plant, as did BJS. Or it's the Lions Only crowd who want to think he's better than he actually is, because they dig his fake ass wannabe paper gangsta Vanilla Ice hood act. The mother****er should've come out to Pretty Fly For A White Guy from Offspring last night. But even that parody might be too good for him.
He is ok. He showed crazy heart and an iron chin. Must guys could not have taken those shots. When Canelo vacates his belts he can grab another title. If not he can get some good paydays from Charlo and Andrade, maybe go to 175. Him and Bivol would be entertaining but I dont think he can win.
At 175... I'm not even sure he can beat Ricards Bolotniks. If he values his health, he should never move up.
Rightfully said, fooled so much of the boxing public, really makes you think about the audience & followers of the sport out there.
Check Twitter/Reddit/YouTube it's always the same, usually the ufc crowd level of I.Q posting about boxing, adolescence.
He's a former titlist, and begrudgingly (because I dislike him), he is still probably at top 5 guy in the division. That ain't a gatekeeper, that's a contender.
Plant can now go back to selling his “merch” on Davidbenavidez.com. But now every time he does anything with that website he has to remember the beating he took. He thought he was trolling Benavidez by buying that domain but he trolled himself instead.
I know talk about pathetic using someone elses name for your own website to sell some lame **** & the fact that he actually thought that was so clever on his part makes it even worse, even various media members interviewing were egging him on & thinking it was such a great mental warfare tactic, Just sad, I wonder what his new merch (if you even want to call it that) will be? Perhaps the front having him Cuddle up on Benavidez shoulders while having Bayless's face on the back of the shirt with some Plant catchphrase, I'm sure they'll sell like crazy.
Caleb Plant is about to become PBCs 168 version of Austin Trout or Gamboa.. That’s only if he continue to fight on since he did make about $15 million this past 2 years. If so he’ll be fighting Morrel, Charlo and whoever else coming up at 168 soon..
