This twelve-round affair pits two champions against one another as Alvarez is the WBA, WBC, and WBO champ, with Plant holding the IBF crown.

Canelo Alvarez’s Boxing Odds & Betting Outlook vs Plant

Alvarez has been on a defined path to unify the gold at 168 pounds.

After garnering the WBA and WBC straps from Callum Smith plus the WBO belt from Billy Joe Saunders, only one belt remains, and it is currently in Caleb Plant’s possession. Canelo is slated as a much bigger favorite in the Alvarez vs Plant odds compared to his most recent against Saunders.

Canelo’s path as a belt collector began in December, and he could unify the division amid this four-belt era in less than a full calendar year.

Things have started to heat up leading into this fight, which is not characteristic of Canelo. Plant and Alvarez found themselves in several heated verbal exchanges and also got physical with one another at a press conference whereby Plant was cut on his face.

The sweet science fans and pundits alike who are analyzing this bout have pretty much ubiquitously picked Canelo to get it done here.

Alvarez has had exemplary performances across multiple weight divisions. Super middleweight seems like his optimal weight category for that confluence of cardio proficiency with punching power, which is why he is listed as such a heavy betting favorite in the Alvarez vs Plant odds at DraftKings.

Caleb Plant is seemingly one of the only people in the boxing community not getting swallowed up in this hype.

Caleb Plant’s Boxing Odds & Betting Outlook vs Canelo

Caleb Plant is an undefeated pugilist who has maintained his hold on the gold since January 2019. Plant has notched three successful championship defenses so far.

His quest for the fourth defense of his gold would be his biggest yet. As he would not only become undisputed but would defeat the best boxer in the world today.

Plant has a five-inch height advantage and a three-and-a-half-inch reach advantage in this bout. Alvarez is a more proven knockout puncher and has more instances of showing that bout ending killer instinct than Plant.

I foresee good value lying in a prop bet centered on this contest not going the distance (-225) in the DraftKings boxing odds. Also, I think there’s good value in a prop on Caleb Plant being knocked down, which is listed at -300 in the Alvarez vs Plant odds.

Canelo Alvarez vs Caleb Plant Pick & Prediction

In the end, I foresee the number one pound for pound ranked boxer in the sport draping more hardware over his shoulders this weekend.

I would say betting Canelo via KO or TKO (-210) is the best bet for Alvarez vs Plant.

As far as round group betting goes, Alvarez getting the finish between rounds 7-9 at +285 holds the best value in the DraftKings boxing odds.

Pick: Canelo Alvarez (-1000)
