[Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs Caleb Plant

[Jawhead999]

Canelo really show how strong his chin he's not even scared getting straight punch from Plant, on round 11 Plant's looks tired and can't fight anymore with Canelo but he's still force himself until he knocked out. 2-3 weeks ago I read an article [1] Canelo will knock out Plant less than 8 rounds, however even it's not really accurate but he's still prove his claim to knock out Plant.

Canelo feels after won IBF super middleweight title, it's done.

^ Not just in round 11, but early one Plant hit him flush in the face, lol, Canelo just eat it up like nothing and keeps on attacking. I'm not sure what round it is, but that's where Caleb stays on the side and then doing his shoulder roll. Canelo has a granite chin indeed, Lol at the Thanos meme for Canelo, but he looks like Thanos in the ring.

Plant also has some big shots on Canelo but Canelo is just too strong that he didn't feel the power of Plant. I agree, he is like Thanos in boxing who can talk punches and will not get hurt, instead will only be heated to get better and better until he can knock out his opponent. Canelo deserves to be in the top 1 of pound for pound king ranking and I'm sure next year we will see more surprises from Canelo and he is ready to take a big step, probably moving up in weight.

I'm a bit skeptical of Canelo at first, but after this fight I'm convinced that he is just a tough mofo. Plant's physique looks intimidating, but Canelo keeps applying pressure, and moves forward. Iron chin, fantastic footwork, and powerful punches. It seems that no one can beat Canelo in the Middleweight division. However, I don't think he will move up to light heavyweight, but let's see. I'd like to see him defending his title over and over again.

I also don't see that possibilities, it's much better to him to keep fighting and defending his title on his weight,

No need to step up and make yourself uncomfortable, for sure their are many challengers that will ask to fight him and try to take his thrown.
More fight means mire money for him, 

Let him enjoy his victory and wait if whatever plans he have for his career, future will be revealed in the right time.

Canelo added more to his fame, he deserve everything after seeing how he brings this fight to an end.

This is why right now he is the best pound for pound boxer around the world, he is simply great on all aspects of boxing, he has a great chin, endurance, stamina, technique, punching power and he is on his prime, Canelo will probably fight one or two fights as the undisputed but I think he needs to move to a heavier division as he will earn  more money that way and he will have the chance for even more glory, as right now the only thing he can do is to defend what he has gained and cannot obtain any more belts.

Defending against a weaker opponent, I think he would just win in the end and everything will be easy on him. A real challenge in on the heavier division and if he can still become an undisputed champion which might be possible, then I think he would still create another history in boxing.

Canelo is probably the best boxer right now, and since he is still at his prime, he needs to take the challenge by moving up in weight. He can definitely have more fights and more money, so let's be optimistic with our speculation that it will come to reality, right now, the man deserved a rest..

You could really say that Plant is really something strong on just looking with the physique but Canelo wasnt been intimidated with that form.
He wont really be reaching out this popularity and fame if he wasnt really that good.

No doubt about that Iron chin and power punches which had been known or simply his signature.Canelo is just too strong
and that form shouldnt fool you.

I doubt on stepping up on division but who knows right?

The truth is, Celeb did his best to make a fuss about himself, and all he cared about was viewership and building his image.
Canelo, on the other hand, focused on hard training and it resulted in winning the fight.

We saw a typical Canelo Alvarez last night, a slow starter. His granite chin gave him the advantage as he couldn't topple down on the early rounds while he is building momentum going into the championship rounds.

If he decided to stay in the Super Middleweight division, IMO there's not enough competition that poses a threat to the belts in the next few years and a trilogy with Golovkin may be the next option for team Canelo.

Time to lock the thread now and as usual, many thanks to you who interacted and give their predictions and ideas about the fight, and congrats also to those who won the betting.
