Trevor McCumby Eager For Challenge Of Caleb Plant

Trevor McCumby is excited about the challenge about boxing Caleb Plant.

The two are likely to box on August 17 in an intriguing matchup and one that is a key fight for McCumby’s career and he says it is getting close to being finalized.

“Yes, we’re looking at August right now, so just kind of waiting for an announcement but we will be back in August,” said McCumby. “The fight is a pretty high possibility. Caleb is a household name and it will definitely move me up in the rankings. Hopefully, a win will get me a title eliminator and then I get a shot after that one.”

McCumby is 28-0 as a pro and has looked phenomenal since ending his five-year layoff in 2023. He’s won three-straight fights and McCumby believes he’s finally ready for a big fight against Plant.

“There is not a lot of tape of me out there,” said McCumby. “I have a lot of punching power. As you can see from my last fight, I have a lot of gas. I feel pretty certain Caleb is going to take the challenge. It’s a great opportunity and I’m very appreciative. It’s finally time where hopefully I can get a shot.

“I don’t have a lot of wear and tear. I know guys who have sparred quite a bit and it takes a toll on their career. I’m a fresh 31. My mind, body, spirit is right. I have God in my life. It’s a beautiful return for me. I’ve had trials and tribulations throughout the years and that’s why I’m tenacious. I’m tenacious in the ring and I’m tenacious in my life.”

If the fight does happen, Trevor McCumby knows people will be doubting him against Caleb Plant but he’s eager for the chance to prove himself.

“I don’t know how Plant is going to come out, if he wants to move or wants to fight,” said McCumby. “I can just promise the fans it will be a great fight.”
