    I think Plant is actually a pretty damn good boxer, and only getting better.

    He's not Floyd or Sweet Pea obviously. But people were raving about Billy Joe Saunders' boxing ability...this guy is superior IMO.

      They're waiting for that exclusive 168 PBC title fight in 2021.

      Mike lee followed by Alfredo Angulo ha.... if Caleb Plant was more popular, people would be killing him.

        Is anyone really interested in a Benevidez/Plant fight?

        Sure a unification is nice, but Plant is by far the weakest titleholder in the division

        Low hanging fruit match up for Benevidez really

            I have no issue with his career route. I think he’s done very well. I also don’t mind this fight. But I would like to see him take the next step after this fight in terms of becoming the man. But I would rate him and benavidez equal at this point. Neither has done enough to separate themselves from the pack. In fact I think all 4 champs are just about equal in the division.

              You must have missed it, Saunders is a title holder at 168 now.

                In Plants defense though, nobody expected a war torn shot angulo to beat quillen.

                  His taking apart of Utcateziaihig or however you spell it was impressive to me...but yeah part of me can't tell if he is the real deal who will be very hard to hurt/hit clean over 12 rounds...or if he is closer to getting touched up than I realize...I just really don't know about him yet.

                    It may come down to the nasal spray/PEDS for BJS...but he looks great to me when he is on...and really bad when he is off...can't think of another guy who on any given night, you just have no idea what you're getting...he may be a guy who fights to the level of his competition as well.

                      He'd be fighting Quillen next if he had won I bet anyway. So either way it was not gonna be any type of top level dude for him.
