Alvarez set up another victory in his latest Cinco de Mayo bout with a staggering right hand in the middle of the eighth round, sending 73,126 already-screaming fans at the home of the Dallas Cowboys into a frenzy as we waved his arms to encourage the noise while the round continued. Thousands of fans waved Mexican flags, some with “Vamos Canelo,” or “Let’s go Canelo,” written on them. The Mexican dodged Plant's attempt with relative ease and landed a counter. But Plant's conditioning coach Larry Wade has confirmed Plant has now made a full recovery from the brutal battle. Given below is the full fight card for the event. It came a little more than a month after baseball’s Texas Rangers had their home opener in the first full pro sports stadium since the COVID-19 shutdown early last year, right next door at Globe Life Field.

Benavidez's team are also trying to make the deal work, but the negotiations are reportedly hitting a stumbling block with the Canelo camp. Jose Benavidez, David's father, has hit out at Canelo and his team with a fight deal still yet to be agreed between the parties. Still Alvarez was in control even before the devastating right in the eighth. I think they will both win and I think they will fight as, at the moment, it is still the most lucrative fight out there for both of them at this stage of their careers. There was light at the end, and we fought and beat a difficult champion in Callum Smith. With no future matchup booked as of now, there is always a chance we'll see Canelo and Makabu fight each other. Makabu attended the World Boxing Council Convention in Mexico City.
Canelo stopped Avni Yildirim in a glorified stay-busy fight back in February and has clearly got his career in much better control after he was released from his Golden Boy Boxing and DAZN contracts. Whether it’s boxing or in life, I’ve gotten here by any means necessary. It’s all up to Caleb Plant. “Hopefully it’s about more than just money. Are you more about the facts and figures?
