Canelo have parted ways with Golden Boy Promotions so with that move, can we expect more challenging fight of Canelo in the near future?
This is an easy fight for him, he should have defended that Light Heavyweight title if he want more competitive fight.

We don' appreciate this fight as we can't move on to the big fight of Canelo with triple G.

Fans deserve a better fight, I'm not too familiar who is the heavy contender in his division but a trilogy fight with GGG would be a good treat to the fans as soon triple G would retire since he is not getting any younger. Anyway, there's no betting odds for this fight yet, please update the odds in the OP when available @bisdak40.

It is just GGG, known to most and I believe that he is just the best contender for Canelo. Not even seeing other boxers tougher than GGG at this level. They got already in 2 fights before, why not ready set them for the next fight. They are actually the best show that the boxing fans love to see on screen and on the ring, not this one.

Not to say that this is an easy win for Canelo but I think the fight won't last until 12 rounds...

Well that is what we are expecting from him, more challenging fight in his weight classes or even higher to show his greatness and to be the true pound for pound in this decade. This is probably another get busy fight for him, at least to clear away the cobwebs as he has been sideline for a long time because of the obvious lockdown.

Probably Canelo will have it by knock out or by unanimous decision, it might not be a shut out though, at Plant can also throw fire with his punches, but Canelo's chin has been tested many times specially in the Kovalev and GGG fight.

It could be an easy fight for him, but Canelo hasn't fought for over a year and he needs the fight to get in his top killing form after the depressing battle suits that prevent him from fighting, this is a good decision to be a free agent he can pick a fight and make a lot of money, but like the article have said he should be fighting top names, Canelo is going to make a lot of money because he is not tied up to promoters who just made him their cash cow.

Canelo Alvarez is at his prime now, his opponent is not so popular as a boxer but I like Plant's record because he is undefeated.
Maybe they are not getting into big fights now, Canelo just trying to condition himself with a non popular boxer for him to get ready on some big fights in the future.

12 KOs from 20 wins, the record is amazing.

Hopefully this is not a Lopez vs Loma alike. Grin

I don't know which fighter is Canelo going to face in his division as those champions are not very well know, Caleb Plant and Billy Joe Saunders. But with him out of the Golden Boy, he can choose to fight who ever he wants and the trilogy with GGG won't happened. Canelo already said that he doesn't want to fight GGG anymore, he was just 'forced' to fight him this year because of Golden Boy and DAZN, but since he is no longer in contract then he will go on his own route.

Canelo just want to take an easy path, but if fans would choose, they would love to see him fight GGG as they are evenly matched, hence, fun to watch. However, since he already have this fight, I think he needs to take care of the business first then look for a tougher opponent after this.

It is not a cherry pick because there is not a lot of opponents out there for Alvarez to choose from and could be competitive against him. A lot of people would've preferred Charlo but he is from a smaller weight class and his style is not as polished as Plant. Slick, technical fighters like Plant have been the one's who have given Canelo the most problems.

I'll probably say it's just for the semantics, not cherry pick but could be an easy fight for him? I wouldn't call Plant technical though, he doesn't have enough movement and I think this will be his downfall against Canelo, because once Canelo put a dent on that chin, it will be over. Although he has that shoulder roll over ala Floyd, I don't think we can call him by copying that move.

Canelo isn't someone who wins fights decisively on the scorecards. Kovalev was doing well against him, Jacobs won about four rounds, the Lara, Trout and GGG fights all could have gone the other way. It will not be an easy fight for Canelo and when you have so many close fights you would think there is only so many times the judges can give you the benefit of the doubt.

Perhaps he gave early rounds to get a fell of his opponents, but at the end of the day, judges scores in favor of him. And he dealt the bigger blows in those close rounds that's why judges awarded him that rounds.

This is as close as a cherry pick fight for Canelo. Yes, Caleb is undefeated and a champion but Canelo is just about in his prime and no one from Middleweight to Light Heavyweight that can defeat a version of Canelo right now. Perhaps Andre Ward, there have been talks but I don't know if its going to push through and get Andre out of his retirement.

It's a good decision for him and his team to get out of Golden Boy's contract. He can manage himself right now as he is one of boxing's premier attraction.

As we all knew that Canelo is now a free agent and negotiation for a potential showdown with Plant on the 3rd week of December is likely to happen. The venue could be Texas where audience is allowed.

What do you think of this fight? Another cherry picking?

This right will be more exciting for both of them, and as many people knew Canelo he's been doing great along of his career in boxing. His fight history is the biggest potential for him to achieve a 100% in winning the fight for Caleb. However, he shouldn't take for granted the capabilities of his opponent because that's certain for their team to study what weaknesses he had. Only one mistakes will only change the progress of his skills in fighting while real game is happening.
