WARD PICKS PLANT
Andre Ward has been helping Caleb Plant throughout training camp and is backing his pal to beat Canelo Alvarez tonight.
“I’m not a believer when you face a guy that’s powerful or a guy that’s supposed to have punching power you’re [supposed to] avoid him and being perfect for 12 [rounds],” he said.
“Like, I don’t believe in that. Like, I like to go rattle their cage. In fact, you gotta rattle the cage.
“What I mean by that is that sometimes you gotta [sic] go to that power and smother it.
“You gotta let them know, whoever it is, hey, you can get hurt, too.
“Caleb is a guy that has more power than they realize.
“I think he’s physically strong. I just think it’s always crazy until you do it. It’s easy for fans to choose – the easy pick is Canelo because of his history and everything he accomplished.
“But I’ll support Caleb, win, lose, or draw. But I think he has a great opportunity to go out there and shock the world. He just needs to put his mental on and make it happen.”
