Boxed Canelo in 2018
I don’t think anyone is beating Canelo at super-middleweight. I think Plant will have his moments. As Canelo grows into the fight I think he’ll take over, get to him and stop him. I can’t see a way of Plant winning. He’s not the biggest of punchers. He’s fast and skillful, but so is Canelo, who will come on top towards the end.

I think Plant surprised a lot of people with his performance against José Uzcátegui. Being able to keep Canelo off for 12 rounds is hard. At some point Plant is going to engage and throw shots. It’s whether they land and how quick he is getting out of the way of the counter-punches.

Fought Alvarez in 2011
He could try take three of his pals in the ring and hope the ref thinks it’s a fair fight! To me the only way he would have a chance is the with art of boxing – to hit and don’t get hit.

It’s a tough ask for Plant but he is undefeated. He has fast hands, a good defence, an excellent jab but perhaps lacks the power to keep Canelo away. His best chance is to start fast and bank early rounds by staying disciplined and picking his shots on the outside. Then try to avoid Canelo in the later rounds.
