LAS VEGAS, NEVADA – SEPTEMBER 14: Caleb Plant leaves the ring after his victory at T-Mobile Arena on … More
Caleb Plant (23-2, 14 KOs) is the No. 3 ranked competitor in the super middleweight division, according to the latest ESPN rankings. The 32-year-old opened his career with a perfect 21-0 record, winning the IBF super middleweight crown in his 18th pro bout with a unanimous decision victory over José Uzcátegui.
After three title defenses, Plant took a leap up in competition and faced Canelo Alvarez in a title unification contest. Alvarez scored an 11th-round TKO win in that contest. Plant bounced back from his first career defeat with a knockout win over Anthony Dirrell. Another loss followed as Plant dropped a decision to David Benavidez in March 2023 in a matchup for the interim WBC super middleweight belt.
Plant returned to action in September 2024, capturing the vacant interim WBA super middleweight belt with a knockout win over Trevor McCumby.
Armando Resendiz (15-2, 11 KOs) opened his career with 12 straight wins. Resendiz got knocked out by Elijah Garcia in 2023. His most recent outing was a fifth-round KO win over Fernando Paliza in February of this year. He is the No. 15 ranked competitor in the WBA rankings.

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA – NOVEMBER 25: Jermall Charlo celebrates his win after his middleweight bout … More
A former two-division world champion (154 and 160 pounds), Jermall Charlo (33-0, 22 KOs) looks to make his mark at another weight class when he competes at 168 pounds in Vegas.
The 35-year-old Charlo has not fought since late 2023 when he earned a decision over José Benavidez Jr. That win ended a break of more than two years for Charlo, who was stripped of his WBC title while he was inactive following a DWI arrest in May 2024.
Thomas LaManna (39-5-1, 18 KOs) is riding a nine-fight winning streak heading into Saturday’s event. The 33-year-old is looking for the biggest win of his career against Charlo.
It is believed that if Plant and Charlo walk away from Michelob Ultra Arena at Mandalay Bay with wins on Saturday, they will face each other before the end of the year in a super middleweight scrap.
