:mjlol: at Plant still getting tagged in the clips he posted.

The video Heavy Hands put up wasn't even that bad by ass whipping standards, but it definitely not a good look from Plant. They may as well post everything cuz it looks like one guy starts off strong and then the other guy finishes off strong. Basically each person had their moments.

this is why I dont believe that he can deal with benavidez

Don’t really understand what happened with the Canelo court case now, can someone explain?
Basically canelo's lawyers named too many ppl on the lawsuit without properly documenting where fault lied in their business..and it got thrown out so they have to amend it else there is a good chance the judge dismisses the lawsuit altogether

This is correct

top rank was literally started by them acquiring Muhammad ali, the biggest thing in boxing at the time

Exactly. Its like building around a great draft pick.
DAZN had a Mayweather type of idea, but with a Clottey type of execution. :hhh:

1. Should have signed him for less fights. Like 4 for example. With dude schedule he would have been done with that shyt in 2 years. They definitely had the funds to do it.

2. Should have had the exact fights they wanted from him specifically placed in the contract. (GGG, Andrade, BJS, Smith) Saying premier opponents ain't enough. I definitely would disagree with Fielding, Jacobs, and Kovalev as premier opponents. Jacobs was the only solid fight, but by no means was it some type of event. Just like I would disagree with Oscar and them UFC nikkas as premier opponents. They could have offered Canelo like 200 mil for those 4 fights. At least one of them would have turned into a FOTY and the GGG rubber match would have brought in a gang of new subscribers off rip. Plus it would have had a trickle down effect in boxing because the other big names would want to face more top opponents in their divisions.

3. Should have had their own prospect or promising contender that they pushed around those Canelo or Joshua cards so he would have gotten exposure and built up. In the event Hearn n Oscar leave DAZN, they would at least built up somebody who's career they could have controlled.

4. Should have pushed a shyt load of original content or signed some boxing channels to exclusive deals or something. Give em like 4 shows and if the feedback is good, extend the contract and keep it going.

5. Give promoters (Oscar n Hearn) some type of contracted schedule to produce certain marquee events for their stable (not just their elite guys) No way BJS n Smith should have been not fighting each other after all this time. Farmer and Andrade also needed more notable fights. Ditto for Munguia.

6. Should have given more leeway to their contracted fighters to face other stars on different networks. Like say Farmer fights Tank on Showtime or Fox ppv. DAZN gets a cut from the ppv buys and gets the rebroadcast rights. Just some examples.

For all the money they threw around, they needed to be way more efficient than what they were. This should be a lesson to all involved.

Sound through and through..esp with 4.. the lack of shoulder programming was very glaring

His gameplan and training camp would make the difference imo. I believe he has the style to make him look bad, but he gonna have to train for a 15 round fight and also get used to the adjusted offense he'll need to make the most out of it (lots of overhand rights and looping shots)

Even with Benavidez quicksand feet, Plant don't need to be getting tired while on the ropes or in his range. Jason Williams will end up getting his ass kicked.
