Official 2021 Boxing Thread: 11/6 - Canelo Alvarez vs. Caleb Plant SHO PPV

Teo took the big fat L at home and was even taunted during the fight

boxing is a tough tough sport
Easy to see why the PBC clowns fight once a year against hand picked mismatches

 

[blastercombo]

Lopez too busy trying to sell himself and beer. You’d think he was 50-0 or something with all that. That’s all gone now

That father-son dynamic can be dangerous for a fighters career.

Look at Shawn Porter and Danny Garcia for examples . They respect and listen to their pops too much and it affects their performance. Even Floyd has issues with his pops in his corner but he was good enough to overcome it

Same exact issue with Teo. His pops wasn’t being brutally honest with him

Agreed. Tito Trinidad's pops kept telling him he was winning the fight against Hopkins. Father, trainer, friend, etc. it doesn't matter, trying to give someone false confidence is never the right way to go.

Yes men is boxing is a killer but that usually turns up when money starts coming in. It’s not what happens in the corners, it’s what they hear during the training. They keep hearing they’re good enough when they’re not putting in the work like they used to.

this daddy wanted to be the star. Sad

Teofimo has special physical gifts. Punching power, explosiveness. Dude is a FREAK ATHLETE. But it simply ends there. He has very average pure boxing ability. Dude was getting his *** kicked the entire fight from beginning to end just loading up on one shot over and over and over. No jab, no head movement, no ability to cut off the ring. Nothing.

He runs into major issues If he cant get you out of there within 6 rounds. We first saw that vs nakatani, vs lomachenko, and again last night. Dude was definitely concussed during that post fight interview also. Slurring his words talking about he won 10 rounds.

My man lomachenko is even more pissed that he never got that rematch now more than ever. Last night was clear why teo refused to fight him again even though he wouldve made more money in that fight than any other fight available.

All respect to Kambosos. He fought a great fight and made it look easy. True definition of real self confidence and belief. Not this made up **** like the majority of these fighters nowadays.

Wouldn’t even say all that. He’s good, and the fine, but he’s not great. Only a few can be. In the days where a rematch was in the works out of respect he’d be fine, but in todays world of 1 loss and you’re out . His disrespect to the game is gonna undo him. Now nobody has to fight him. It’ll be him begging for shots. That doesn’t stack up well to the persona his daddy made him

he might be the fast forward version of AD lol

Man!!! What a fight…big respect to kambosos

that 11th round was amazing, real glory…rocky balboa ****.

dood was a 14-1 underdog and was a MANDATORY CHALLENGER for teo!!!

teo didn’t even hand pick this dood

Lost some respect for lopez trying to steal kambosos moment in the post fight interview….doods face was thrashed.

 

[Figured it out]

decent read. Teo *wife left him right after she had the baby and dude was “broke” (had 20K in his account when he had millions last year ) right before the fight . Seems to have issues

No excuse for that L or his behavior after the L but still a good read

mans did the backflip in the empty arena

Member in this thread was mentioning how something was ‘off’ about him in an interview posted leading up to the fight. This article depicts it too ….hope he got paid

 

[blastercombo]

Boxing is tough, but worst of all, it’s quick. You’re a star waking in and a bum in 30mins. If you don’t have your head on right and/or your team is feeding you nonsense you’re done before you know it. No forgiveness in this

 

[yungmatt]

Cant make anymore bogus excuses about no one wanting to fight him anymore

 

[dgar08]

Boo Boo trash ain’t nobody really ducking him

Think it was me. You could see something was off with him. Haney said the same thing. Even in the corner when he went back in between rounds dude was off. His wife/family and boxing taking a toll on his mind. He needs to take some time away.

RIP to his son…. My son has the same name

Shakur vs Herring did a $480k gate

So I heard that GGG fight is on. Can't really find an official word though, anyone know what's going on or if Japan granted him an exemption (likely due to how much money the event will generate)?
