Alvarez was a true favorite to win the fight, but Plant, being the underdog, didn’t make this outing easy for the Mexican boxer. Canelo had to dig in deep as this fight went the distance. Furthermore, it was in round 11, when Alvarez finally got an opening, wherein he dropped Plant twice.

Post the second knockdown, the referee decided to conclude the bout to save Plant from further damage. With this, Alvarez added another feather to his cap.

Alvarez will stay out of the sport for a while, but once he returns to the ring next year, he’ll challenge Ilunga Makabu, the WBC cruiserweight champ.
