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.

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.

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.

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?

^ 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.
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..

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,  Wink

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.

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.

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.

There is a difference between mediocre boxer and a very good boxer when they get mad. Very good boxers don't usually knock their opponents down by making careless aggressive moves, instead they are carefully doing the aggressiveness to make it more accurate that will potential floor the opponent.
And I have seen this both from Canelo and Manny.
They are indeed the two best gladiator of our generation.
Manny knew how good Canelo is, that's the reason why he want his son training with Canelo.
If I have a son who wants to learn how box I'll pick Canelo or Pacquiao to train my son, they have calculated aggressiveness and they are both exciting to watch we don't want anymore Mayweather who hit and run, this is the new breed of boxers that we want to have, calculated aggressive and don't back out, there's a saying style makes the fight, people will always pay to see Canelo box, he brings the glory of boxing back he wants to put the results in his hands instead of the judges.

Alvares led the game with good strategy and in the 11th round he finished off the plant with explosive hits. it was a good match. So Alvarez proved it, he is invincible.

Before the fight, I never would have imagined the Canelo to KO Plant, i guess the thought of becoming the FIRST UNDISPUTED SUPER-MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPION must have fuel Canelo's hunger to win the fight. He has really proven himself and shown that he is not the world's best pound for pound fighter for nothing. He worked Plant and watched for sign of weakness, immediately Canelo noticed that Plant had been hurt, he took full advantage and went for the KO, Great Strategy, Great Fight.

Well if you have followed everything leading up to the fight, Canelo was really mad at Caleb and he says this is personal. And we all know that if a fighter takes it like that, there will be a knock out.

But indeed, it was a pleasure in our lifetime to see two great fighters, Manny Pacquiao - 8 division champ. And now we have Canelo Alvarez of Mexico, perhaps now the greatest Mexican boxers of all time. Maybe surpassing JCC Sr, and then Barrera or Marquez. (at least Mexican boxers that I have seen in my lifetime).

That was a great win for Canelo Alvarez. It was not just another ordinary win in his record to celebrate. There is another big reason for a bigger celebration and that is because Canelo is already an undisputed champion. He is the only undisputed champion in the whole history of super middleweight. That is amazing.

As to the fight itself, it was not really that exciting. The whole fight was Canelo's. Caleb didn't give much challenge to Canelo. He only won a few rounds. He didn't hurt Canelo at all.

That's correct, as usual, the early rounds are for his opponent but when he heats up and begins to find this rhythm things would be then in his favor until the last round of the game, whether it's a KO or through judges' decision. Canelo has made his name in boxing already but he is still young, so I'm expecting him to have more fights and probably moving up would be a good idea for a tougher challenge.

It is such a privilege to witness the sheer dominance of Canelo in his weight division. This is the person who continued to dominate boxing and he showed his superior skill and prowess to everyone.
Indeed and I enjoy this fight. Canelo is unstoppable and we can see his power and determination. I wont be surprise if he became one of the best mexican boxers in his generation. On the other side, Plant managed to protect his body and last to 11 rounds. I think he is a good boxer as well and I believe he can still redeem himself since there are still opportunity for him to show what he got.

Caleb Plant, although seems really struggling throughout the match, stands still at the end. Almost a decision and close to avoiding losing on being Knock Out. Bettors who placed a bet for the decision were almost a win but Canelo spoiled it. Congratulations to Canelo being an undisputed super-middleweight champion who currently holds 4 titles in different weight classes.

Also, congrats to bettors who put bets for Canelo winning by TKO despite being considered as low odds.

Yes, he fought really well and he deserved to fight Canelo although we can tell who really is the better fighter. I can't believe the fans, Plant still receives boos on his exit going to his locker room. Anyway, not only on those on the TKO, also those who bet on the over 9.5 and 10.5 as the fight ended in round 11.

I salute those bettors who put a bet on Winning Rounds. It's difficult to predict what round the fight will end in favor of someone. Since betting on Canelo either in Moneyline or Win by Decision is not profitable, others are forced to bet on other betting options.
Yes, it is not that easy to predict the round in which it gets the result. From my view from the fourth round onwards Canelo have been progressing continuously. On every further round he had been making some strong punches with style. This showed the winning chance, but not the exact round for the result. It was nice to see him saying we want result when asked about the moving up for 175lbs.
I forgot, I also salute those who bet on Caleb Plant's high odds. That was worth a try. Even losing your bet, you watched a spectacular fight. This will be my last post at the thread before it will be locked.
The fight could could completely turn in a single punch, so trying their luck over the high odds is not a big thing.

Actually, like many people, I didn't think the plant would last that long. All that kept Plant up was its mobility and swinging combos, but it wasn't as effective as a hit. Alvares led the game with good strategy and in the 11th round he finished off the plant with explosive hits. it was a good match. So Alvarez proved it, he is invincible.
We all knew who would win the fight but when the fight went into the 11th round i was worried because i placed a bet on Canelo Alvarez to win by knockout and i thought it would reach a decision thereby loosing my bet, but then he was able to turn the fight around and after getting the first knockdown i knew Canelo Alvarez would swarm him and finish him off and that is what we saw. Canelo Alvarez wanted to punish Caleb Plant for talking shit and he did exactly that and then finished him in the end.

Right, even before the faithful knock down, Caleb Plant looks really strong in taking Canelo's punches.

But once Canelo hit that target, Caleb's body just gave in and goes down. Alvarez is ahead on all of the judges scorecard so there is a possibility that he will win by a decision.

Props to Caleb as well, he really stood there and fight his hearts out, gave everything and we can see that Canelo is not comfortable in the first couple of rounds.
