Caleb Plant is ready to storm inside the ring on Saturday night. The Nashville native will defend his title against Caleb Truax in a 12-round battle. Although ‘Sweethands’ does not share a significant rivalry with any of the boxers, he has a beef with ‘Golden’ Truax.
In a chat alongside Premier Boxing Champions, Plant detailed what actually happened in 2016. He said, “During my 11th fight he (Truax) was on Twitter, tweeting hoping that I’d get knocked out and you know there’s only room enough for boxing for one Caleb and just a bunch of nonsense. And since 2016 I have kept that in mind, I haven’t forgotten.”
“Come January 30th, I am just excited to see if you really meant what you said, because I’m gonna give you a chance to prove that.”

Five years ago, he didn’t pay attention to ‘Golden’s tweet and carried on with his supreme run in the sport. However, he remembered what was said and this may fuel him in the ring on January 30.
