Criticism of Saúl Álvarez has been the order of the day. Canelo’s defeat shook social networks. Great personalities from the boxing world have spoken about it. Óscar de la Hoya has already thrown his little darts and Caleb Plant was not far behind to comment on Dmitry Bivol’s victory and advise the man from Guadalajara.

What seems to have been a categorical victory for the Russian fighter, left the doubts from the point of view of Canelo who was not very happy with the decision of the judges at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Against this background, “Sweethands” sent a message to the Mexican.

“(Canelo) just has to take the defeat like a man, take it on his chin and recover. No excuses, no BS and just going back to prep ,” the American boxer wrote on the his official Twitter account (@SweetHandsPlant).

Just gotta take a loss like a man, take it on the chin and bounce back . No excuses, no BS, just back to the lab. — CalebPlant (@SweetHandsPlant) May 8, 2021

It is worth remembering that Caleb Plant was already in the shoes of the Mexican . The American comes from losing by knockout to Saúl Álvarez and knows firsthand what it means to hit rock bottom. As a result of his disappointing experience, Plant advised the man from Guadalajara to get out of this hypothetical pothole in which he would be submerged.

“If you don’t accept it, how can you overcome it and improve? The truth is that although many do not like it. The sooner you accept it, the sooner you can move on ”, sentenced the American through his personal account.

If you don’t face it then how can you overcome it and get better. The truth is the truth even if we don’t like it. The sooner we accept it the sooner we can get on with it. https://t.co/BNnRODANOG—CalebPlant (@SweetHandsPlant) May 8, 2021
