Canelo wins by KO, as expected, is now undisputed. He's come a long way since the Mayweather fight - he seems to steamroll anything and anyone in front of him, bring on Beterbiev, I'd be intrigued to see what happens.

Plant had a nice jab for the first few rounds but you could tell nothing he was doing was really deterring Canelo

finished that fight. I have no issue with those score cards as really after the 3rd round Plants jab was missing and Canelo was doing the better work. He slips and counters so well it's amazing to see. Plant had volume on his side for a while but he wasn't landing most of his shots

He did well though and proved he is at a certain level. Just not on Canelo's.

Conor Benn VS Chris Algieri is interesting. Everyone is saying how Chris is washed up and past it now but Chris was no joke in his day.
He had speed and could rack up points well IMO.,

They're matching Benn very carefully. I think he'd get exposed at European level. Boots Ennis smokes him right now

that division is stacked though

He was making it look so easy up until that point

edit: it's crazy to see Ade go from doing boxing videos on YouTube to now working for DAZN and doing the interviews. He's gone up in the world!

I just watched the highlights of this on youtube and the reaction from Galahad's corner to the knockout was pretty odd. They all just turn their back on him as he's knocked out and only as an after thought does one of them get into the ring to see how he is.

You forgot to mention whyte conveniently got a shoulder injury less than 2 weeks out of the wallin fight in the hope he'd skip it and get the fury fight. No sympathy

He was mandatory way before that hes been a mandatory for over 3 years since 2017!

do you even know??

Dillian Whyte has chalked off his 1000th day as the WBC's No 1 challenger, but why has he waited so long for a WBC heavyweight title fight?

The green and gold belt had appeared in touching distance when Whyte was officially confirmed as the highest-ranked contender by the WBC in November 2017.
