could be as simple as them wanting to get rounds in, could be politics as crazy as that sounds
multiple dudes from my stable got beat up cause politics in our gym. our trainer was hated by other trainers for whatever reason but he was too old to fight his own battles.
i had no issue saying i wasn't sparring today when i saw the okie doke being played out
Bryd was a defensive southpaw boxer. But yeah him and Tua is a good place to start.
Bryd vs Tua
Chris Algieri vs Ruslan Provodnikov
Sugar Ray Leonard vs Marvin Hagler
Devon Alexander vs Marcos Maidana
check these bouts out, good contrast of styles, plus they are action fights. (boxers vs punchers/pressure/brawlers)

Canelo vs Plant at 168 is now an actual possibilitywho canelo gonna fight. He not going to fight mal, so him being a free agent means nothing.
No one wants to see that shytCanelo vs Plant at 168 is now an actual possibility
, Caleb should be fighting the BJS, callum smith and Benavidez round robin. No one wants that shyt right now. Outside of a potential Mal fight this is actually a worse situation for fight fans

Lol, Lopez I can see but Tank? Tank had one fight at 135 so far and looks to be his best at 130. Why would they put him in with a naturally bigger, possibly bigger hitter Mikey who's also a skilled counter puncher? If they don't want Tank to lose his 0 it doesn't worth it.
Mikey could very well beat Lopez for the same reasons but Lopez at least is a big guy at 135 and just beat Loma. Idk how high is Arum on doing business with Mikey though.
Did Mikey call out the winner of Taylor vs Ramirez too? If not but he called out a 135er and a 130/135er that looks like

I'd impressed by that, not that I don't know already that Canelo doesn't shy away from challenges but Plant could be a tough stylistic matchup for him. I'd still take Canelo but imo he'd have a harder job beating Plant at 168 than anyone including Benavidez and Smith, maybe except an in-shape BJS if that's even still a thing in 2020.
