I urge you to watch the kick off press conference:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvz6ai6ZqFU

Hehehe, it was very heated, Benavidez mouth was running and trash talking the hell out of Caleb Plant.

It was very intense that they can go fighting in that podium. Maybe Caleb hit it on the mark when he says that Benavidez has issues before like not making weight and the drugs that's why he is so furious and continue to attack Caleb verbally.

But in any case it's already living to the hype in their first press conference.

Obviously, Benavidez hates Caleb Plant there's too much disrespect for Caleb Plant, I consider Benavidez a better fighter but I want Plant to knock him out, Benavidez is too brazen its understandable because the drug issue is very sensitive for Benavidez, this is just the first conference I expect the thrash talks to be more heated and they may even have a brawl if Caleb keeps hitting him.
Thrashtalks like this with both fighters hating each other are good for the preparation of the fight night.

I would agree that maybe Benavidez went overboard here, there's so much hate and disrespect, you can actually feel it when watch the pressere.

So by now it's hard to like the personality of Benavidez and his father, and remember that this is the just the first press conference, just wait till the face off and maybe we will see another Canelo vs Plant action hehehe. Let's see if Benavidez can back up all his trash talking, we know that he has the tools though, but Caleb after this, might be fueling inside and wanted to punch that big mouth of David.

Most of the time, it's easier to said than done, but let see if how Benavidez will take all the talks in action, I would like to see
a good confrontation inside the ring.

Looking to see for someone to kiss the floor and lose the fight with a KO. It's more on fueling the excitement from the fans
and let them be engage to continue following the updates while waiting for the fight to take place.

And since the fight is lock now, it's time for David to show what he is capable of against Caleb.

Maybe after he won, and calls out Alvarez, we shall see if Canelo will fight him next or go to an easy tune up fight against John Ryder.

Canelo is not that kind of a fighter, he would not go on a easy route, in fact, he tried to move up in weight and fight a champion, so I'm expecting that he will use his time very well and that being said, he will fight the winner of this bout.

Canelo is knows the value of his name, and the route that he will go probably if where the money at, we all know this man
and he's always getting huge portions of the money.

But I'm expecting him to give the winner a chance and face him, a good way to defend his belt and make him still the top fighter from this division.

Waiting for the winner of this fight and see if what will be the next update.

That's what I thought as well, Canelo is going to fight the winner which I think will be Benavidez. And this fight is more exciting to watch as we haven't seen them fight before, unlike Canelo fighting Plant which we already saw how he dismantled him in round 11 when they met.

Benavidez should do his best to win this match though it will be a tough and challenging match for him to face plant. He must show off his real strength so he could possibly face Canelo in the future. I believe that Benavidez still has a lot to prove so it will be a good chance for him to showcase his real capability in the ring. It will be an exciting match and I hope this would happen early this year.

In particular, I think the same as you, for me Benavidez is a boxer who has worked hard, you can see that he trains a lot and that he has many dreams, well, like everyone, almost all boxers have many dreams and among them to be the best and the most famous, this is one of the things that they look for the most, and besides, I know that he wants to be able to reach Caenlo in an impressive way, with that he takes away the idea of fighting Inoue, since he is a person who He is quite insistent and apart from everything he wants to fight against the best, Benavidez can do it, I think he has how to do it.

So it seems like the winner of Plant-Benavidez is not getting a shot at Canelo Alvarez. As per Eddie Hearn's latest updates, Canelo is determined to take revenge on Dmitry Bivol right after his fight with John Ryder. And since Ryder-Canelo is a WBO mandatory and the Canelo-Bivol is a rematch clause activated, the Benavidez-Plant winner cannot request the WBC to strip Canelo of his belt in favor of the interim champ. Canelo remains the biggest cash cow in boxing anyways and he might also get VIP treatments on sanctioning bodies. Canelo and the WBC also blocked us fight fans to see a possible Beterbiev-Bivol unification for the undisputed belts at light-heavyweight.

Eddie Hearn updates on Canelo Alvarez’s plans, Terence Crawford, Bivol vs Beterbiev, Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury, more

That's a good thing as it will make the  way to Bivol rematch faster than expected. At least Canelo could avenge his previous lose after his mandatory fight. I hope this will happen this year so it can be concluded if Canelo really is a real threat to beat Bivol, or Bivol would close their rivalry by beating him twice.

If that fight will take place much earlier expect to see a huge amount of flowing money for this possible upcoming fight,
Canelo-Bivol rematch will bring huge money to both promoters and the fighters.

I like to see them again and if Canelo is determined to win this fight, the chance of new rivalry to have a trilogy is not by far.

Looking forward to hear more updates with what the next journey for the winner of Plant vs Benavidez fight would be.

Well, for me in particular, I would like to see the rematch of Canela vs. Bivol, because this generates a lot of things and like the emotions that many fans give, however I think that Bivol will give this fight just to comply, because I don't see that he I want him to know about this fight, it's more, I don't know, but in my perception I think Bivol is annoyed or annoyed to fight again to tell Canelo, and it's because he doesn't see him at his level, I think Bivol knows that if he fights The new one against Canelo will win and he will waste an event that could be with another boxer who will give him much more fame and recognition, this is something that I speculate that Bivol may think, and that because of the way he takes things against Canelo, it may be I'm wrong, but I think so.

Might be bad for us boxing fans, but at least if Benavidez won and then Canelo 'ducking' him, then it's not going to be there problem and could probably fight for the interim belt next, or this fight could be sanction as such.

So in any case Canelo will be ready and still be the champion, then maybe he can give Benavidez his chance.

All roads to Canelo though, as you have said, he is the cash cow and all boxing body are giving him a huge favor by not forcing him to fight his mandatory.

Canelo though might be changing his strategies as he is not getting old this year, he said that he wants to fight 3x a year but I doubt that it will happen since he has his hands broken already and that is not a good sign.

I know that all roads lead to him, but he will be very careful as who is going to face in his comeback fight, and yeah it could be Ryder first. And then wait for the outcome of this fight, whether it's a viable option for him or not to face a young Mexican in David Benavidez or hide in the reason that he doesn't want to fight a Mexican boxer next.

I believe the injury is not so serious, with enough time of healing he will be alright and will be back 100%. Canelo is definitely ready for challengers, and it's not a problem if he will only fights 2 times or even 1 time a year as we can assure you it will be a quality fight. Canelo is already 32 years old, not young enough but still capable, still in his prime IMO.

I cannot really say that it wasn't that serious because Canelo still had to go surgery just to bring his wrist back to normal, I bet the the doctors were already saying that he needed the surgery after his fight with Bivol because he's already aching at that time and when he fought with GGG afterwards, his wrist has gotten more worse than what he endured during the Bivol fight. Anyway, the good news is Canelo's hand is looking fine and he needed to test the waters first and fight Ryder to see if it's indeed recovered.

The truth is that hand surgery or something related to hand surgery is very delicate, at least where I live those who are specialists in it are few, the same as those in brain surgery, because it is very complicated, I should have done it if I fell the She did should rest because these operations are very delicate, I would not really be challenging anyone until I feel completely well, at least 6 months is indicated, because afterward it can cause permanent damage and I know that it is serious. However, a boxer is not going to take much into account the guidelines given by a doctor, just because it is a way to take advantage of every opportunity in the fight.

Breadman: "I'm Confident That Caleb Plant Can Knock Anybody Out"



Quote
By and large, Caleb Plant has used his otherworldly boxing skills to avoid the oncoming onslaught of an opponent’s attack, while peppering his man with just enough offense to pick up the victory. However, following his 11-round stoppage defeat at the hands of Canelo Alvarez in November of 2021, Plant has ostensibly flipped a switch.

With the help of world-renowned trainer, Stephen “Breadman” Edwards, Plant (22-1, 13 KOs) seemed more daring and audacious during his showdown against Anthony Dirrell on October 15th. On the night, after lulling the former two-time WBC super middleweight belt holder to sleep, Plant uncorked a pernicious left hand, one that saw Dirrell’s lifeless body hit the canvas for a protracted amount of time.

Canelo doesn't have the liberty to rest that long because I think there's a timetable in when can they only pursue the rematch with Bivol (although I'm not really sure about this but I think there's only a time limit) anyway, correct me if I'm wrong about this. Nevertheless, I really do agree with your sentiment because Canelo would lose everything if incase he'll be chasing diamonds in rush because his wrist might be the payment.

Back to the topic, I respect Stephen Breadman's perspective towards this fight and we all have our own bias and perspective in this bout. Still, I'm not that convinced that Caleb will be the one who will be smiling at the end.

Well, one of the operations or interventions that a human can have, the recovery is very delicate, they have to have a lot of rest, something like this is what can happen after this type of intervention, however I don't know if Canelo overexerts himself Such an operation can harm, well I don't know how the cases are handled now, or with what type of technology the intervention was made, but I hope that he is fully recovered, and with respect to Caleb, well everyone expects a great performance with respect to him, they all have great hopes, Benavidez is not one to let himself be beaten either, that boxer has very good technique.

^^ I like the confidence of Benavidez here, he is not backing down to any challenge as he has been chasing for this big fight for a long time. On the other hand, Caleb Plant is also confident as he is riding from that huge win, a knockout of the year.

So gonna be interesting how the fight will turn out to be. And also this fight hangs what the future will bring to the young David.

He wanted to fight Saul Alvarez next, and this is his ticket for the big one, better be a statement win because all his trash talking will back fire if he can't back it up against Caleb Plant.

He will be tested with that strong statement he needs to prove that in action, it's easy to say something but proving it will be a tough
assignment, Caleb is not an easy access to reach his dream fight.

A former champ who only got his first lost with Alvarez, something that Benavidez needs to prepare more harder to beat him up.

I like to see both of them proving those words that they've thrown, a big test to who will be the next challenger for Alvarez, unless Saul
will decline the challenge.

Yes, it is really quite a huge statement from a young boxer who aspires to be a champion in this weight class and although he's still up against a huge challenge, I believe and I'm pretty confident that he can manage well against the former IBF World Champion, Caleb Plant. Moreover, this will be a good warm up fight for David and will provide a strong statement that he is ready to fight the undisputed champion who's more stronger and faster.

I think he knows that he has the advantage in this fight that's why he is making a huge statement in public. His knockout record speaks for itself as he is leaving a trail of knockout wins. Yes, we can say it like that, to face the man who Canelo has beaten already, so it's a good measuring stick for us to see if he has really the talent to go after Canelo at this point in his career. So David should impose and big statement win to get the attention of Alvarez and potential showdown in the near future. As Canelo will probably rematch Bivol first.

Benavidez is a boxer who always does his things well, he is one of those I have seen who has a discipline and who takes care of his talent, his ability is strengthened with his training and I think that at the level of boxe'op and any sport of high performance contact, his forte is good training, well in what is my personal opinion and from my short experience, I know that hard training makes winners, because the body is subjected to a great level of stress and that is enough to being able to measure yourself in a fight, because in a fight the conditions are not as extreme as the extreme level of good training.

David Benavidez vs. Caleb Plant Los Angeles press conference this Thursday, Feb.2nd




Quote
By Sean Jones: David Benavidez & Caleb ‘Sweethands’ Plant will meet this Thursday, February 2nd, for their kickoff Los Angeles press conference to discuss their March 25th fight on Showtime pay-per-view at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. The press conference beings at 1:00 p.m. PT. The unbeaten former two-time WBC super middleweight champion Benavidez (26-0, 23 KOs) and former IBF champ Plant (22-1, 13 KOs) will battle on March 25th to position themselves to face Canelo Alvarez for his four belts. Benavidez will have his interim WBC 168-lb title on the line against Plant in a fight that shapes up to be a cat & mouse affair with Caleb doing a lot of moving around the 22-ft ring, trying to elude the pressure from David.

This fight is very interesting, because both boxers have a point of view to defend their points, so this is something that the same sport makes them, however I could not be sure which boxer wins here, as far as I am concerned I see both at the same level, and that is difficult, I would have to have many more details to see how their training has been, how they are psychologically.

Seems that all spotlight is aiming towards David Benavidez now, I just hope he won't get blinded by the light and will still stood his ground about his goal so that he could face Canelo Alvarez in the near future. Honestly, I'm really not a fan of a boxer who will bark first before showing some proof and saying that he will knockout and defeat in a mere (figure) rounds. What I want to see is how will David prove his existence in this category so that he will be favored to fight the undisputed.
Either Plant or Benavidez, each of them saying he will knock out his opponent Cheesy But IIRC Plant was saying it first, but now it's Benavidez turn. Both of them talking too much, usually when the boxer is really self confident by saying he will win via knock out, he's the one who get knock out by his opponent Tongue

Benavidez's KO rate is really high, it's better for Plant to prepare more and shut up his mouth before he can beat Benavidez.

Maybe they really hate each other that much that's why they want to knock each other out. Specially that somewhat Plant has suddenly found his range and his power so he is going to trash talk and says that he is also going for the killer left hook.

But we all know that Benavidez record speaks for itself, he is the knockout artist between the two. And his power might be too much for Plant to handle.  I think Benavidez is one of the hardest puncher in this division.

David Benavidez: I promise I’m going to knock out Caleb Plant



Quote
David Benavidez’s fight with Caleb Plant is now fully official for March 25 on Showtime pay-per-view, with the fight taking place at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena, and the unbeaten super middleweight is promising a knockout finish.

“I’ve been working my ass off like never before. This is my moment in life where I get to show why I am the best super middleweight in the world, and that’s exactly what all my fans will see,” Benavidez wrote on social media.

“I promise all my fans I’m going to knock out Caleb Plant. Y’all ain’t gonna want to miss this one.”

Benavidez (26-0, 23 KO) will surely be the betting favorite (DraftKings don’t have a line up just yet, but should soon with the fight now officially set), but Plant (22-1, 13 KO) is definitely his best opponent to date on paper. That can’t really be said the other way, but the only opponent Plant has had who comes close to Benavidez on paper is Canelo Alvarez, who stopped Plant in the 11th round in late 2021.

Seems that all spotlight is aiming towards David Benavidez now, I just hope he won't get blinded by the light and will still stood his ground about his goal so that he could face Canelo Alvarez in the near future. Honestly, I'm really not a fan of a boxer who will bark first before showing some proof and saying that he will knockout and defeat in a mere (figure) rounds. What I want to see is how will David prove his existence in this category so that he will be favored to fight the undisputed.

^^ I like the confidence of Benavidez here, he is not backing down to any challenge as he has been chasing for this big fight for a long time. On the other hand, Caleb Plant is also confident as he is riding from that huge win, a knockout of the year.

So gonna be interesting how the fight will turn out to be. And also this fight hangs what the future will bring to the young David.

He wanted to fight Saul Alvarez next, and this is his ticket for the big one, better be a statement win because all his trash talking will back fire if he can't back it up against Caleb Plant.

Seeing all this, how the son has developed I cannot fail to mention that Canelo is the protagonist, not only because of his way of being in which he always attracts attention, also in the way these boxers are preparing and I know that everyone wants a fight with Canlelo to snatch a belt, title or something that he can offer them, I think that Canelo should start training very hard, because these two, both Benavidez and Plant, are not playing with toy cars, whoever comes out the winner One of them will undoubtedly look to fight him and if Canelo loses it would be very disastrous because he wants to fight the best fights now, his reputation would be greatly affected.

David already got skills and I trust that his prowess can take him up to a much higher league where he can own either one of the 4 belts or even became the new undisputed, although, saying this is quite premature for now as he's still up for a tough challenge where he has to beat Caleb Plant. He indeed got to impress the whole boxing industry in this fight because Plant will be his ticket to lock a fight with Canelo.
That could be his main goal here, at least get 1 belt and then fight Canelo in the future (assuming Canelo is willing). David Benavidez is very young and has talent, so it's promising to see this kind of fighter trying to challenge Canelo in his division.

Plant is no pushover himself, but I guess he is just a over hype fighter when he face Canelo back then because we thought that he has a good chance against Canelo. But he was broken down. So this might be the case here, when he feel the power of Benavidez, he might broke down as well and maybe David will go for a knockout win.

What belt? Canelo Alvarez is the last waypoint as he possess all four belts hence why he is the undisputed boxer at 168 lbs.

Whether they like or not, one of them will have to face Canelo Alvarez after this fight but for Caleb, I don't think he got something that would upset the undisputed. But for David, the kid got something that would be interesting to see in front of Canelo and remember, the kid's dream is to fight Canelo.

And since the fight is lock now, it's time for David to show what he is capable of against Caleb.

Maybe after he won, and calls out Alvarez, we shall see if Canelo will fight him next or go to an easy tune up fight against John Ryder.

Canelo is not that kind of a fighter, he would not go on a easy route, in fact, he tried to move up in weight and fight a champion, so I'm expecting that he will use his time very well and that being said, he will fight the winner of this bout.

Canelo is knows the value of his name, and the route that he will go probably if where the money at, we all know this man
and he's always getting huge portions of the money.

But I'm expecting him to give the winner a chance and face him, a good way to defend his belt and make him still the top fighter from this division.

Waiting for the winner of this fight and see if what will be the next update.

That's what I thought as well, Canelo is going to fight the winner which I think will be Benavidez. And this fight is more exciting to watch as we haven't seen them fight before, unlike Canelo fighting Plant which we already saw how he dismantled him in round 11 when they met.

Benavidez should do his best to win this match though it will be a tough and challenging match for him to face plant. He must show off his real strength so he could possibly face Canelo in the future. I believe that Benavidez still has a lot to prove so it will be a good chance for him to showcase his real capability in the ring. It will be an exciting match and I hope this would happen early this year.
