The focus of boxing this week will be the match between WBA, WBC, WBO, The Ring Canelo Alvarez and the IBF Caleb Plant. The winner of this glove will be absolutely in the middle class.
Compare on the achievement board
Currently the house is leaning completely towards Canelo. According to the odds from Fanduel, Canelo is more appreciated with the betting ratio of -1250, which means you have to bet 1250 USD to profit $ 100. Plant is arranged lower with a +630 ratio, so if you bet 100 USD will earn $ 630.
Looking at the achievement table, Plant did not impress even even 21 unbeaten matches. Because Plant's rivals are not very famous and not high ranks. Meanwhile Canelo continuously won the Knock out against the world's top punches such as Rocky Fielding, Sergey Kovalev, …
So no one believes Caleb Plant will create any surprises in this match.
The perfection of Canelo Álvarez on the boxing floor
On the BT Sport Boxing channel, the former Carl Frampton champion once commented that: “It is hard to say the strongest Canelo, because he has a pretty comprehensive fight in the boxing.”
And the fact that Canelo Asialvarez has been constantly improving and perfecting skills throughout the years.
Initially with the style of Mexican Style, Canelo often won with Knock Out at the beginning of his career. However, Floyd Mayweather defeat completely changed this Mexican puncher.
As a pure puncher in power, Canelo was completely helpless with a puncher with superior defense skills like Mayweather. Since this defeat, Canelo has grown more in Boxing and he has not yet lost any matches.
Canelo is currently with a counter -attacking style and a pressure to create a pressure on two main weapons in the competition, Canelo has caused many opponents to hesitate in whether or not to rush into the work or continue to defend.
Typically, the match with Callum Smith in the second half, Canelo continuously attacked but the British opponent still boiled defenses because of being attacked with a fast rhythm, and feared to be countered when rushing in.
Technology of young Caleb Plant puncher
Starting a professional boxing in 2014, Caleb Plant was not a prominent name until he won the first championship in early 2019 against the former IBF champion, José Uzcátegui. This fist continued to assert himself with 3 times to successfully defend the title of the IBF championship.
Now, Caleb Plant is facing a huge challenge, and is an opportunity to help him enroll in the history of professional boxing. He not only had to fight a strong opponent but the best puncher at this time – Canelo Alvarez.
This puncher was born in 1992 with good technical skills and high tactical thinking. He often brought the floor with a series of sharp continuous attacks. With the current speed and technique, the best strategy for Plant in this match is to stay away from Canelo, as far as possible.
It is easy to see that Plant is not the form of martial artists with heavy load. And facing heavy punches like Canelo, Plant is forced to use techniques and speed to win. But will the tactics beat Canelo, an experienced puncher with 59 matches in a professional floor?. It is unclear whether plant can answer this question or not. We are forced to wait until November 7 to have the answer.
Will the match end as the press conference?
On September 22, Canelo Alvarez and Caleb Plant happened a fight at the first press conference to promote this confrontation.
Plant said something offensive to Canleo's mother and made the Mexican puncher lose his temper. Plant rushed in with a slap, Canelo also countered with two consecutive slaps. As a result, Plant was slapped with glasses and injured eyes.
The way these two boxers slap each other like a situation in reality. Plant launched a long -range hook and the accused reflected with a hook in the face. If it was in the arena, Plant was likely to have been measured after this situation.
In addition, many people are concerned that eye wounds after this press conference will make Plant unable to fight during the competition. Because, boxers often fight before the time of the official match to get acquainted and create a sense of competition. This will greatly affect the performance of Plant.
Forecast: Canelo Álvarez won with Knockout.
