Comments Thread For: Plant: It Was Destiny To Win My First Title in the City of Angels

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Caleb Plant knew it was fate that his first shot at a major title just so happened to land in the same month of the passing of his infant daughter, Alia nearly four years prior. An even greater blessing came in its final location. The 26-year old super middleweight from Ashland City, Tennessee-who now lives and trains in Las Vegas-made the most of his debut on the title stage, twice flooring Jose Uzcategui en route to a title-lifting decision win Sunday evening at the Microsoft Theatre in Los Angeles.

They are really hyping this kid on ESPN, but as soon as he steps up in class, he's going to lose to any of the top guys in the division.

168 is a fairly weak division rocky Feilding was legit top 5. Uzcatigui had a weird style he'd rush in and get hit on the way in after round 6 it stopped hurting him.

He'll have a few successful defenses.

Once he crosses paths with Canelo it's over.

GGG should move up and fight this guy to try and redeem himself.

Very good and complete performance. Caleb really proved a lot on Sunday. Although Uzcategui was slightly overrated off a very good win over Dirrell, plant showed several dimensions to his game. Hopefully him and David Benavidez meet in the future.

Intriguing...let’s see how plant fairs against other 168 champions and we shall see if he can unify the belts in his division and also beating other competitors, good win though against Uzcategui

Dude made a fan outta me!

How can you belittle his accomplishment?

Took the challenge to fight one of the top champions in their prime and while coming off a near year lay-off with no tune up not to mention from surgery on a fractured hand!

He did all of this while being the underdog, he’s earned it the hard way! He deserves all the blessings and to be in the conversation as top 5 168!

My only criticism is Caleb was breaking down, he was starting to leak and getting out worked at the end. He could have finished better.
