“I don’t think he’s the invincible man. I think that Plant’s got a very good boxing brain, he just needs to maintain his distance” – Billy Joe told TalkSport when asked for his thoughts on the undisputed super middleweight clash this weekend
“Make sure you’re out of distance, don’t just think you’re out of distance because that’s the difference when you’re in with world level and elite [level].
“He’s gotta make sure to be on his game all the way, I think he’s gonna give Canelo a good fight. Plant’s got all the tools to cause him problems… He’s obviously gotta keep it at long distance”
“I’m gonna go with Canelo on points because of the reason of being Canelo. I know how hard it is to get a decision and what tricks they might play leading up. He can’t let any of that get to him, completely brush it over his shoulder and hopefully let his boxing do the talking.”
