Caleb Plant Asks Canelo Alvarez If He Is ‘Pretty Good’ During Their Fight
A new video was released of Caleb Plant and Canelo Alvarez talking during their fight where Plant was asking Alvarez if he was good.
In the ninth round, Plant was doing much better than many expected but ultimately lost by 11th-round TKO. Although he lost, it still was a solid performance from Plant who even Alvarez was impressed with his skills.
Plant: “You’re pretty good.”
Plant: “Am I pretty good?”
Canelo: “Yeah.”
Plant: “This is a good fight right here.”
Canelo: “I like it.”
Plant: “I respect your skills.”
Canelo: “I know.”
Plant: “I’m pretty good for 21-0, huh?”
During their talking exchange, the two did not throw punches so the crowd started to boo. Although you couldn’t hear them talking on the broadcast, the lull now makes sense as the two were talking to one another.
With the loss, Plant is now 21-1 as a pro but lost his IBF super-middleweight title. He had defended the belt three times including beating Caleb Truax and Mike Lee among others. Although he isn’t a champion, he has vowed to become a champ again as he believes his fight against Canelo Alvarez proved he belongs with the best.
“I’ve bent most the world to my will and done it with nothing but passion and skill. I’ll be back. I showed I belong on the top level and I’ll be champion of the world again. I’ve never been scared to go big or go out on my shield. Thank you to all the fans and all my supporters.” – Plant wrote on Twitter.
When and who Caleb Plant will fight in his return is uncertain. But, when he does, he will have plenty of options as he still is a big name in the sport and still has a ton of skills to become a champion again.
